Your Simpsons character
Professor Frink
Joe Barnard’s constant tinkering with rockets, motors, and high‑tech filming gear mirrors Professor Frink’s obsessive love of invention and scientific experimentation, as shown in his tweet about "Spincasting a thermal liner, a story in two photos". He frequently shares safety warnings and calls out scams, just as Frink often warns about the dangers of his own experiments, evident in his post "I will NEVER direct message you asking for money … block and report them". His enthusiasm for broadcasting his work through new videos, live streams, and detailed behind‑the‑scenes posts—e.g., "🚨NEW VIDEO!!🚨 I’m sorry for the name of this rocket…" and "I’m live now with NSF!"—captures Frink’s habit of proudly demonstrating his latest gadgets to the world. Finally, his quirky humor, like calling himself "a machine that turns grocery store sushi into youtube videos" and pairing Charli XCX music with rocket motor tests, reflects the off‑beat, nerdy personality that defines Professor Frink.
Your MBTI personality Type
ESTJ
The frequent public updates and invitations for feedback show an extroverted style, e.g., 'Anyone want an early Christmas gift? A new video perhaps? 👀' and 'I will NEVER direct message you asking for money... block and report them.' The focus on concrete details, hardware specs, and sensory observations indicates a sensing preference, as seen in 'I have like 200 bags of screws and nuts... need a better way to organize them!' and 'This shot is Cinestill 800T which has a pretty red halation around the highlights.' Decision‑making is driven by logical analysis and cost calculations, such as 'Getting both stages back in a non destroyed state is crazy... it's $200/kg to LEO. If they hit 100T it's $20/kg' and the cautionary tone about scams. A structured, goal‑oriented approach and planning of releases shows judging, illustrated by 'New video tomorrow 🚀' and 'Goal by the end of the year is to get a 3rd person shot of drogue deployment at a 10km apogee.' These combined traits point to an ESTJ personality.
Some pickup lines for you
- Are you a 3rd‑person camera shot at 10 km apogee? Because every time I look at you, my heart goes into orbit.
- If we were a rocket motor, I'd be the propellant and you'd be the nozzle—together we’d make a perfect burn.
- I heard you have 200 bags of screws; mind if I help you organize them while we film a love story on Cinestill 800T?
- You must be a New Glenn launch, because every time you post a video, I feel a countdown and a lift‑off in my chest.
- Let's swap Li‑Po batteries and see whose energy lasts longer—maybe we can power a joint video and a date in LA.

Your signature cocktail
Super 8 Rocket Old Fashioned
The Super 8 Rocket Old Fashioned captures Joe’s love for rockets, coffee, and film. A base of bourbon stands in for the "rocket fuel" he often references, echoing his tweet "NEW VIDEO 42 MINUTES OF ME SANDING AND BREAKING STUFF". Coffee liqueur adds the caffeine kick he asks about in "How much caffeine are y'all consuming per day?", while orange liqueur nods to his "Orange rocket" post. A dash of smoked bitters reflects his recent love for Cinestill 800T film, as he wrote "I’ve been shooting a lot of film lately, Kodak Portra 800 is the goat but Cinestill 800T is my new fave." Finally, a splash of club soda gives the fizz of a launch, mirroring his excitement for "Super 8" rocket footage and his "I have like 200 bags of screws and nuts … I need a better way to organize them!" vibe.
Your Hogwarts House
Slytherin
Joe's tweets repeatedly emphasize ambitious goals and a drive to outpace others, such as 'One of the big goals by the end of the year is to get a 3rd person shot of drogue deployment at a 10km apogee' and 'If you want to print money, don't compete with the 100 other startups making SRBs, make the AP that they all need to buy'. He also focuses on scaling and efficiency, noting 'Getting both stages back in a non destroyed state is crazy… $200/kg to LEO; if they hit 100T it’s $20/kg'. This focus on personal success, strategic advantage, and resourcefulness aligns with Slytherin's core value of ambition. While he shows community spirit, the dominant trait across his timeline is the relentless pursuit of higher performance and influence, a hallmark of Slytherin.
Your movie
Your song
Rocket Man - Elton John
The song 'Rocket Man' by Elton John fits Joe Barnard because his Twitter feed is a nonstop celebration of rockets, launches, and maker culture. His excitement is evident when he writes, 'WOW dude, DEAD CENTER!! Congratulations @blueorigin and everyone working on New Glenn!!', and his frequent video updates like 'NEW VIDEO!!' show his desire to share flight footage. The lyric 'I'm a rocket man' mirrors his self‑identification as a creator who builds and films rockets, as seen in his tweet, 'I am a machine that turns grocery store sushi into youtube videos', and his love for film stock, 'I’ve been shooting a lot of film lately, Kodak Portra 800 is the goat but Cinestill 800T is my new fave.' The song’s bittersweet line about a 'long, lonely road' reflects his acknowledgment of the challenges of independent rocket development, such as his 'No Effort November' mantra and his warning about scams, 'I will NEVER direct message you asking for money if you ever get a message from an account that looks like me and wants you to donate or send money, block and report them.' Overall, the blend of soaring excitement and grounded realism in 'Rocket Man' captures the spirit of Joe’s tweets.
