All Of Em, Except Maybe Trying To Be An INTJ. Less Lazy? Yes. But Thinking Like An INTJ? No Thanks.

Drawing a picture of Arista and Hadrian and it’s all sappy and about him being her guardian and then Jon wanting me to draw her in her robe so there.

why the types are holding a grudge

ENFP: you were mean to someone, anyone, without a good reason

ENFJ: you must have killed a butterfly or something, geez, like how do you make an ENFJ hold a grudge?

ENTP: you deceived them (be warned, the chaotic energy runs high in this one)

ENTJ: you contradicted their argument without a logical reason

ESFP: you ignored their obvious endeavors to please you

ESFJ: you made a very ill-timed “yo mama” joke once

ESTP: you acted like they were attacking you for offering advice

ESTJ: you willfully spread misinformation

INFP: you disrespected one of their core values, knowingly or unknowingly

INFJ: you were probably just a bully, INFJs are pretty understanding

INTP: “I was mad at you? What did you do?” you didn’t take the school project seriously

INTJ: you ignored their caring advice and did it anyway (INTJ is glaring at INTP)

ISFP: you’re determined to make everybody else unhappy with you

ISFJ: you were rude to the well-meaning worker

ISTP: you won’t shut up and do something about it

ISTJ: you were stupid on purpose and want to complain about it to them

MBTI as Things My Professors Have Said

ESFP: “Uh… schwa!”

ESTJ: *pause* (in Russian accent) “Oh, your handwriting is very bad!”

ENTP: “You’ll notice that I walk across the grass rather than the sidewalk as I go to class, because sidewalks are a social construct, and I don’t want to be tangled in that.”

ENFJ: “I’m teaching so many classes this semester, I don’t know what we’re supposed to be talking about.”

ISTJ: “Take it up with administration, I don’t have time.”

INTJ: “Students keep asking me all these questions, and I get to the point where I just want to yell, ‘It’s in the syllabus!’.”

INFJ: “First of all, calculators are like cheating.”

INFP: “The bastards at MLA keep changing the rules on me, so keep in mind that I, also, am now learning how to cite sources.”

ISFP: “If you think it’s art, then it’s art, and all art is valid. Welcome to the humanities department!”

ISTP: “That was…. That was genius! Why didn’t I think of that?”

ISFJ: “So basically, just be nice to each other!”

ENFP: “I don’t use the podium because it’s easy to fall on.”

ESTP: “Confidence is sexy, it’s how I met my wife.”

ESFJ: “I’ll tell you where to find super cheap textbooks, but the dean can never know.”

ENTJ: “Stop paraphrasing the textbook, I’m getting bored.”

INTP: *wanders through hallway banging random auto parts together* “Wow, the acoustics in here are amazing! Listen to that!”

Story Time with INTP #5

ESFP: why do you even have Instagram if you're not posting anything?

INTP: 1. For the memes 2. Just to keep up with CS Joseph

Okay but that is soo NOT “The secret life of INTP- Anna Kendrick”. It’s the secret *lives* of INTPs by *Anna Moss*

INTP the Chameleon

Unlike most people, INTPs do not come pre-programmed with acceptable social behaviour patterns. Rather, they learn to fit in through conscious observation and deliberate mimicry.

While other people talk, the INTP watches and wonders. They observe what a person did and figure out what they should do as a response. Widening their sight, nodding, and smiling, the INTP responded with a fake social skill.

Like actors on a stage set, INTPs are playing a role. They know that being true to themselves doesn’t fit too well with average people, they slowly accumulate a little acting knowledge to help them get by.

INTPs could be described as a human chameleon or a mirror. If a person is friendly, funny, boisterous, and waves their hands around a lot, the INTP will start gesticulating, speak in a louder voice, and smile and joke more to match the other’s behaviour. And when the person  is finally gone, they will turn into their typical self which often is silent, aloof and nonchalant, and slowly cocoon themselves inside their room.

Most of the time this mimicry is unconscious and is basically the result of playing a role deeply enough that it becomes embedded. Chameleons don’t have to think about changing their skin colour to match leaves and branches–it just happens.

Not that INTPs are good actors. They only act because they have to, and only put forth as much effort as is required to get by. An INTP, for example, does not have a giant palette of varied emotional responses that seem totally genuine. Instead, they are controlling their bodies like a puppet-master controls a puppet, and the resulting clumsy imitation of reality is just not lifelike. But it’s enough to get by, as long as there isn’t too much pressure.

If the pressure increases or the situation warrants it, however, an INTP will switch back to their regular selves for as long as necessary, perhaps stunning their acquaintances with a display of cool, clear, cogitant reasoning.

Week two of Riyira Revelations Inktober is done! 

Week one is over here!

As an INTP I don’t apologise I just point out how they were illogical

The MBTI types apologize

enjoy

Do you think INFPs are the type to get offended the most? Or generally that it's an Fi thing?

I think FPs are more honest and open about being offended. When the other types are offended (truly offended– not annoyed) they tend to react in distinctly different ways that aren’t inherently obvious to the naked eye, trends generally include:

High Fi (INFP, ISFP, ENFP, ESFP): Expression

Offended high Fi tends to be outspoken because they know where they stand on issues, they know what they believe is right or wrong, and they know how they feel about people who cross that line. 

High Fe (ENFJ, ESFJ, INFJ, ISFJ): Exclusion

Offended high Fe resorts to social exclusion a la Mean Girls. If someone is grossly inappropriate they tend to scold and then minimize exposure to that person by doing things like disinviting them to events, ignoring them when in direct contact, or just plain avoiding them altogether. High Fe also tries to stop the offensive person in question from infiltrating their social circles and influencing their friends.

Low Fi (ENTJ, ESTJ, INTJ, ISTJ): Aggression

Offended low Fi will bury you in facts and counterarguments, possibly toss in personal insults, and then promptly dismiss you as an idiot whose intelligence can’t be salvaged with prolonged conversation by shutting you down and shutting you out.

Low Fe (INTP, ISTP, ENTP, ESTP): Passive Aggression

Offended low Fe likes to troll (harass) which is a form of passive aggression because it’s an indirect form of hostility. They’ll come back again and again until the other person is worn out. The point of this reaction is that low Fe doesn’t want to reveal they’re actually offended but they want to inflict on the offending person the same hostility they received.
