China's latest viral quiz isn't MBTI — it's a brutally unserious drag of your entire personality

China’s internet just found its newest personality obsession, and this one is proudly dumb. SBTI, short for Silly Big Personality Test, blew up across Chinese social media around April 9–10 after a Bilibili creator posted what was basically a joke H5 quiz made in a very unserious mood. According to Chinese media reports, the creator said it was originally made to clown on — and hopefully discourage — a friend’s drinking habit, not to be any kind of real psychology test. That did not stop it from instantly becoming the thing everyone had to try.

The format was simple: around 31 messy, absurd, everyday questions, zero scientific logic, and result labels that felt way more savage than classic MBTI types. Instead of neat four-letter codes, people were getting assigned chaotic identities like “malou,” “world-hater,” “money-giver,” “monk,” and other painfully screenshot-able labels. Naturally, people started flooding WeChat Moments, Xiaohongshu, Weibo, Douyin, and Bilibili with their results, turning it into a full-on social meme. The traffic got so wild that the site reportedly crashed multiple times.

Things got messy fast, though. Some questions were criticized as offensive, the creator deleted the original video, changed the account name, and reminded people that SBTI was never meant to be taken seriously or commercialized. Which honestly makes the whole thing even more internet. The less scientific it was, the more everyone wanted their result 🫠📱
