The Least Badass Type

[MacGuffin]

Disrupt harmony and you will be sniped by an INFP.

Is that before or after the weepy emo rant on LiveJournal?

 

[/DG/]

while I don't like to say something like being a bad ass is extremely type related, I'm going with FJs in general as the least. political correctness, social harmony and unity are NOT bad ass.

LIES!

Is this not the face of a BAMF??

Solidly agreed.

INTP. total pussy boys.

Thats actually kinda true. They're a bunch of man children, and they'll flaunt that shiz too.

Are you an angry person?

You should try to be nicer. INTPs are very fragile.

Snipe my ass.

Piss me off enough, and I'll tell you from less than six inches away, what an asshole you are.

 

[Viridian]

Yeah, that FJ was a real pushover.

 

[tinker683]

Not gonna lie, going to have to vote for my own type the ISFJ.

The only thing we're badass at is making sure our kids have lunches to take to school

ETA: and if by chance you do happen to see an ISFJ drive a monster truck through a cake shop just for the hell of it, start looking for the frogs and the zombies because THE WORLD IS ENDING!

Being a badass is overrated. Badasses don't have moral integrity, they don't care about anything but themselves, and they don't take responsibility for their actions. That's a form of cowardice, IMO. To quote the very non-badass Morrissey: "It's so easy to laugh, it's so easy to hate, it takes guts to be gentle & kind."

I voted INTPs as the least badass, but I don't mean it as an insult....not totally anyway. They just seem too detached from the real world to do any of that action-y stuff badasses do cough:nerds:cough: ). FJs seem pretty non-badass also, but mainly because they care, and caring is good. Martin Luther King Jr. pictured above is not badass in the slightest.

I guess I just have a different definition of being a badass...

seriously. INFPs are not sneaky when you piss them off. they will go Joan of Arc on yo ass

while it is true that FJ bad asses are rare, Martin Luther King was an 8, bad ass is pretty much written in our type decription
PS: self serving post ended lol

actually, people who are bad ass often have tons of integrity and values. bad ass is about
- doing something crazy to get what you want
- not being controlled by anyone
- having the mindset of a winner
- being charismatic and spunky
- doing something that actually gets results
- having high confidence and self esteem
- not caring about what others think of you and not taking your accomplishments too seriously

values and integrity can be a huge source of personal strength and bad ass-ness of epic proportions. most people (not saying you necessarily) have the view of a bad ass as the stereotypical "punk" teenager who is in a gang and is rebellious and dilinquent. this is not a bad ass at all. what you see in this example is someone who is incredibly afraid and insecure. this makes them extremely reactive and compliant to the interests of their friends, going to extreme lengths to impress those they want to fit in with. true bad asses step up when someone in their peer group (if they even have one) is out of line.

That's called being irresponsible, selfish & self-absorbed.

- not being controlled by anyone

rebellious, lack of respect & even self-control

- having the mindset of a winner
- being charismatic and spunky
- having high confidence and self esteem

narcissistic

- doing something that actually gets results

at the expense of others...

Eh, I think the archetypal badass in fiction is a loner out for his own interests, which might be a form of integrity, but not a noble kind. The other thread mentioned someone who "doesn't look back after an explosion" as being a badass. I imagine a Martin Luther King Jr. type would certainly care about the effects of an explosion on other people, possibly checking to make sure no innocent people were hurt. Again, caring is not badass, but caring is certainly courageous & much more admirable, IMO.

@Elfboy, you keep speaking about the subject of being a 'badass' as if you are familiar with the subject. I'm curious of two things:
1. Do you consider yourself to be a badass?
2. What have you done that you would consider to be 'badass'?

1) outwardly no, inside yes
2) not a lot (hence my answer to your first question). I have my moments though

Edit: I don't consider myself courageous enough or action oriented enough to be extremely bad ass, but I certainly am inspired by trully bad ass people. you could say I view myself as a bad ass in training

- high self esteem =/= narcissism
- by that definition,
- not caring what other people think is not selfish. it's called being secure and doing what you need to do no matter who is with you or against you
- getting things done does not have be at the expense of others, most of the time it is to their benefit. I don't mean this as a personal attack, but good luck attaining any form of success if you think this way. there is nothing noble nor heroic about poverty.
- rebellious = lack of self control and respect? you are aware that we would still be ruled by kings and treated like cattle by the ruling class if there weren't rebels. by this measure, Martin Luther King, Ghandi, Joan of Arc, all of the founding fathers, and virtually every famous person in history had no self control or respect. I'll even go so far as to say that anyone who isn't at least a little bit of a rebel is a completely useless individual incapable of real thought, conviction or achievement. I have no respect for anyone who is too cowardly to rebel against an authority which they deem to be incorrect. that person is nothing more than a tool and deserves the same amount of respect.

PS: please do not put words in my mouth. your interpretations of my post were both accusatory and baseless. accusatory is fine if you have evidence, baseless if fine if you're giving praise, but the 2 combined pose seriously communication problems

i think the deal with INTP badassery (or what seems like lack or it) is that well, we are calm, chill and if someone comes to our face, we remain calm and not lose our temper easily, but not run away and ready to attack in defense. at least personally if someone starts to fuck with me, ill just do it back(with triple the force) to them until they attack or flee(been in the situation few times with some drunktards and they always fled). im not a violent person, but if someone starts to fuck with me for no reason, hes a total asshole and i treat them like that(look down on them and laugh at their face on their attempts to act big), but because im not interested on getting sued by some asshole i want to make them attack me, so that i can "self defend" with bit too much force.

Alright there, Charlie Sheen.
