That's fairly common.  Many people could fall into 2 or 4 categories on this test.
So I see you're an ENTP too, I guess that makes sense :)
So what other ones do you fall in then Cain?
- So the New World Order does not actually exist?
- Oh it exists, and how!
Ask the slaves whose labour built the White House;
Ask the slaves of today tied down to sweatshops and brothels to escape hunger;
Ask most women, second class citizens, in a pervasive rape culture;
Ask the non-human creatures who inhabit the planet:
whales, bears, frogs, tuna, bees, slaughtered farm animals;
Ask the natives of the Americas and Australia on whose land
you live today, on whose graves your factories, farms and neighbourhoods stand;
ask any of them this, ask them if the New World Order is true;
they'll tell you plainly: the New World Order... is you!

From that link you should be able to access the others.

If you wanted to make this really accurate, you could look up several other tests and have us take them as well, and see what personality traits are most reoccuring.

General: ENFPs are both "idea"-people and "people"-people, who see everyone and everything as part of an often bizarre cosmic whole. They want to both help (at least, their own definition of "help") and be liked and admired by other people, on bo th an individual and a humanitarian level. They are interested in new ideas on principle, but ultimately discard most of them for one reason or another.

Social/Personal Relationships: ENFPs have a great deal of zany charm, which can ingratiate them to the more stodgy types in spite of their unconventionality. They are outgoing, fun, and genuinely like people. As SOs/mates they are warm, affectionate (l ots of PDA), and disconcertingly spontaneous. However, attention span in relationships can be short; ENFPs are easily intrigued and distracted by new friends and acquaintances, forgetting about the older ones for long stretches at a time. Less mature ENFPs may need to feel they are the center of attention all the time, to reassure them that everyone thinks they're a wonderful and fascinating person.

ENFPs often have strong, if unconvential, convictions on various issues related to their Cosmic View. They usually try to use their social skills and contacts to persuade people gently of the rightness of these views; his sometimes results in their negle cting their nearest and dearest while flitting around trying to save the world.
Work Environment: ENFPs are pleasant, easygoing, and usually fun to work with. They come up with great ideas, and are a major asset in brainstorming sessions. Followthrough tends to be a problem, however; they tend to get bored quickly, especially if a newer, more interesting project comes along. They also tend to be procrastinators, both about meeting hard deadlines and about performing any small, uninteresting tasks that they've been assigned. ENFPs are at their most useful when working in a group w ith a J or two to take up the slack.

ENFPs hate bureaucracy, both in principle and in practice; they will always make a point of launching one of their crusades against some aspect of it.

"The ENFJ may feel quite lonely even when surrounded by people. This feeling of aloneness may be exacerbated by the tendency to not reveal their true selves."
That explains the whole scarf and hat thing.  8)

ah ok, T/F is thinking/feeling.

that makes sense because i try to find balance between those two.

i think deep down inside i'm a thinker, but certain things have made me realize feeling is just as important so i try to push back a little (certain things = Goedel Incompleteness Theorem and Love, btw)

Wow, that's a lot of replies.  If you're trying to figure out what your personality type "means" (if anything) make sure you check all the ones that are one letter off and the one that is diametrically opposite of yours.  Also keep the Forer Effect in mind.

There are a lot of different versions of the test, ranging from pop-psychology garbage you'd expect to find in an issue of Seventeen to very serious, very long, very thorough tests that take  an hour or more to take.  I didn't give a specific online quiz in the OP because I didn't know any that were good.
