INTJ Humor vs ENTP Humor

Have you ever noticed how people who like Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy are more likely to enjoy Doctor Who, Sherlock, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett? This is intuitive humour at its finest.

(Psst! If you liked any of the former fandoms, you should read Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell!)

Intuitive MBTI types tend to enjoy wordplay related sarcasm, deadpan and hyperbole, especially NT types. The differences between Extraverted Intuitive (Ne) and Introverted Intuitive (Ni) humour are subtle, but I’m going to attempt to dispel those differences. Continue reading →

Dustfinger – Inkheart: ISTP

Arvid Walton 1 Comment

Inkheart, Cornelia Funke

Dustfinger ISTP | Infheart MBTI

Dominant Ti: Dustfinger is very logical and doesn’t ever share his thoughts with others. The fewer words he says, the better he feels and he gets annoyed by constant chatter. He’s used to being a loner to the point that he doesn’t always recognise that he’s lonely. He shuts other people out at first, coldly telling them to go away. He loves Resa, but when he discovers Continue reading →

Martin Luther King Jr.

Martin Luther King ENFJ | MBTI

Dominant Fe: King was incredibly good at appealing to people’s emotions, and that’s what made him such a powerful motivational speaker. His writings are full of emotional appeals, and all of these appeals relate to people on a universal level, rather than simply relating to his own experiences. Luther’s life’s work was a purely ethical endeavour and he was willing to sacrifice everything he had in order to help others. Even when Continue reading →

Harry Potter, J.K. Rowling

Umbridge ESTJ | Harry Potter MBTI

Dominant Te: Umbridge loves to be in charge and likes to take over and manage pretty much every part of the system. She wants to organise everyone and obsesses over instituting and upholding rules. She feels the need to control so much that she employs spies and punishes anyone for breaking the rules. She doesn’t care about Continue reading →

The Adventures of Tintin, Herge

Tintin ESTP | MBTI

Dominant Se: Tintin fears nothing, and loves to be in the middle of an adventure, putting himself at risk for danger. He doesn’t hesitate to run out into the middle of a busy street to grab something and flies along on high speed chases. He pays close attention to his environment and uses the information he gains there to help him solve mysteries. Continue reading →

Doctor Who

8th Doctor INFJ | Doctor Who MBTI

Ni: The 8th Doctor intuitively understands people on a deep level within a very short span of time, and often, his understanding is so complete that at times he sounds almost like a stalker (for instance, when he first talks to Grace Holloway). He is a man of vision and can easily recognise potential good and bad paths that people may follow in life. He’s quick to figure out creative strategies for solving problems and is good at logical Continue reading →

Mark Latimer – Broadchurch: ESTP

Arvid Walton

Broadchurch

Broadchurch MBTI

Dominant Se: Mark Latimer has to be doing new things in order to be satisfied, which is why he ends up having an affair. He tells his wife that he did it because he needed someone “newer” than her. He feels comfortable leaping into new situations and is the least emotionally tormented by Danny’s death of his family because he’s better Continue reading →

Which is more Selfish: Extroverted or Introverted Feeling?

It’s not uncommon that people of different MBTI types consider the others selfish. Extraverted Feelers (Fe-users) often see Introverted Feelers (Fi-users) as selfish, and vice versa.

Fe-users look at Fi-users and seeing them more in tune with themselves than others, perceive this as selfishness. Fi-users look at the Fe tendency to go with the crowd and perceive them as fakes. Continue reading →

Rev. Paul Coates – Broadchurch: ISFP

Broadchurch

Broadchurch ISFP MBTI

Dominant Fi: Coates has a strict moral code, pays close attention to other people’s needs and never violates his principles. He doesn’t care that everyone else has a different view of morality than himself, but continues to live by his principles despite. Doesn’t like to discuss personal issues and deflects such questions where possible. However, he is willing to sacrifice personal information if he sees that it will truly benefit others.
