You’ve gotta be CFAKing kidding!

The way people think, feel and behave heavily contributes to their personalities — the combination of qualities that form an individual’s distinctive character.

And, according to a trending psychological test, a few simple “yes or no” queries can determine whether someone boasts the distinctive disposition of a cowboy, fairy, angel or knight. 

Well, yee-haw to all the winged warriors! 

“There are only four personality types,” reveals Brooklyn-based content creator Felecia Freely, 31, known digitally as @FeleciaForTheWin, in a video for her audience of 764,800 TikTok viewers. 

“You’re either a cowboy, fairy, angel or knight,” she adds of her buzzy new theory, titled the “CFAK” test. “And it only takes two questions to figure out which one you are.”

Freely, a psychology buff with a degree in digital marketing, tells The Post that she developed the quirky quiz in late August 2023, using a recent science-based study on human responses versus reactions as her guide.

“I make these personality quizzes as a fun way to explore my passion [for psychology],” said the New Yorker, noting that it took her approximately two weeks to conceptualize the CFAK analysis. “I chose cowboys, fairies, angels and knights because they’re all distinctively different from one another, and all embody a [superhuman]-like quality that people often aspire to.”

And nearly 1 million people on TikTok were eager to learn their personality category.

“First question,” Freely begins the video by saying, reading an online prompt to her viewers: “You just got something new in the mail. What is your initial reaction?

“Are you the type of person to read the manual before you use whatever it is that you just got? … Yes or no?”

She then describes a second scenario, saying: “It’s the middle of the night and someone breaks into your house. What is your initial reaction? Are you the type of person to respond by going to find the intruder? Yes or no?”

Felecia then explains the significance of the exam’s two parts, revealing which category participants belong to based on their answers. 

“If you said ‘No-No,’ then you are a fairy,” says the digital proctor. 

“[People who answered] ‘No-Yes’ are cowboys,” she continues. “If you said ‘Yes-No,’ then you are an angel. And if you said, ‘Yes-Yes,’ then you are a knight.”

Fans of the vid flocked to its comments sections, proudly pronouncing their personality designations.

And, in a subsequent snippet, she expounds on the meaning behind each type. 

“[Fairies] are apparently the rarest of the four [personality groups],” she says. “Many neurodivergents are bound to be fairies because fairies think differently,” added the influencer, noting that folks of this class are typically harmless but often make others uncomfortable due to their nonconformist nature. 

“Cowboys are confident and fearless,” per Freely. “They’re willing to take risks, they’re willing to fail, and because of that cowboys end up creating a lot of what we know the world to be.” She adds that professionals of the “No-Yes” persuasion are often entrepreneurs, creators, artists, writers and hackers. 

“Angels are the light of this world,” raves Freely of the third classification. 

“[They] often experience multiple people trying to protect them from things all the time,” she said. “At the same time, angels are the people who other people feel safest around — they have a very pure energy that makes people feel light.”

And when it came to knights, Freely says: “[They] keep the world from falling apart. They’re builders, protectors, engineers, veterans, scientists [and work in] construction.

“The most important things to knights are things like honor, courage, duty, loyalty … They’re always ready to fight for what they believe in,” says the Brooklynite in closing. 

Freely’s personality pop quiz trails other popular appraisals of its kind. 

The “What The F**K Is Wrong With You?” quiz, which struck social media lightning in June 2022, asked users tongue-in-cheek questions to determine whether they identified as a “weirdo” or just plain “annoying.”

And Truity’s viral “Toxic Person Test” helped takers discover if they’d been unknowingly terrorizing their neighbors, loved ones and co-workers for years. 

But Freely urges folks not to take any online personality tests too seriously.

“Like astrology, it’s not based on rigorous scientific testing,” she told The Post. “Take it easy. It’s just for fun.”
