let's type famous people.

why don't we type famous people??? we can come up with a famous person (a political, businessman, etc) and decide what his/her type is. info of famous people is readily available and beginners like myself can benefit from others analyses of socionics types. this is like having case studies.

i'll start. types of fed reserve chairmen. http://the16types.info/forums/viewtopic.php?t=3218

"Wittgenstein" sounds like the brand of a virtual reality helmet. I guess he must have been INTp, or maybe a piano.

Are you sure, Csaky? For a couple of years I have been pretty sure Wittgenstein was the "other" type than mine. So if he was an INTp, I should be an INTj, and if he was an INTj I would probably be an INTp. I'm less sure of that now, after having become much less sure of my own type. But I still think Wittgenstein has a lot in common with those real life examples of MBTI INTJs I have been referring to from time to time. So, either I have been mistaken and Wittgenstein was not like they are, or I am not the same type as Wittgenstein.

Just imagine what you could achieve if you were able to examine your statements...

Maybe, but why do I have to do the job myself all the time? I'm a lazy guy, and I was hoping I would get a little help from my friends ...

I think it is very often easier to determine some one else's type than your own.

So does oil, and it probably has much more personality per gallon than a fed reserve chairman in a monkey suit.

You just can't cease to amuse me! Really.

What did I say about the sarcasm?

goerge W. bush is an ENTp. a very intellectually lazy ENTp at that.

time is being · #19 10/03/2006, 09:02 PM

his christian fanaticism. and seeing everything in black and white. he wants to get to the answer very quickly.

"[i]t's a myth to think I don't know what's going on. It's a myth to think that I'm not aware that there's opinions that don't agree with mine, because I'm fully aware of that." â€”George W. Bush, Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 12, 2005

it is a symptom of religious fanaticism to establish very bad habits. fanaticism establishes the habit of accepting by faith and in standing resolute in the face of contrary evidence. he doesnt think he is wrong, so he squirms out of criticism by reducing everything to opinion. and i think an ESTp would be less likely to claim to have a direct link with god/jesus when making decisions. ENTp's often leave out subtelty in the zealous quest for an answer. everything is so simple. "you are with us or against us" i think he is an ENTp with very bad intellectual habits that he has learned from religious fanaticism.

and for a more dubious idea: my father is an ENTp with a similar american midwest background and he completely agrees with goerge W. bush.
