MBTI lists me as INTP and what is worst = 89-100% introversion, depending on my "good" and "bad" days.
re "maps into your own experiences" = yes
Although, I believe I have always been shy. Something to do with never being young and therefore always being more quiet and contemplative than everyone around.
As for the clown act - I pulled that off quite well in high school, but it was a role : "the class court jester", as a friend wrote in my autograph book. I think we all have these little strategies for survival. Making people laugh at something you point out is always a better option than having people point and laugh at you!
I'd say more but I think I'll uh, scurry back to my shell(LJ) now.
