House is so irritating to me as a character that I do not even enjoy the show.

ENTP.

In fairness that is the second-best guess, but that's an epically shitty criterion for typing anyone.

No, strangely enough, in the specific case of unhealthy males of this type I find it to be shockingly spot on.

Any type can be unhealthy, annoying, or even repulsive, but there's a particular KIND of fucked up that just makes my skin crawl.

What is Fi, to you?

For starters, it's not a catch-all for ethical beliefs and systems that are NOT deontological. And a Ti take on ethics is not exhausted by the categorical imperative, either.

How is an INTJ. Why is there any argument on that? :) I'm not even gonna justify my position.

You thought I was ENTP based on this, so I'm calling it confirmation bias. Most likely though you just hate Socionics ENFj's (of which House is one, I'm another, and most ENTPs who enjoy annoying people are).

It's natural. ENFj's are your extinguishment; we use the same skillset you possess for goals that you consider evil.

I'm still of the belief that you are an ExTP, and frankly, I don't think you can type your way out of a shoebox. I'm certainly no typology expert but large numbers of forum members who are shocked by your consistent typing failure...well I won't go as far as to say the majority can't be wrong, but I'm thinking it's at least worth considering they're right.

House's particular form of self-absorbed behavior has a distinctively NT ring to it. Of course ENFPs can be narcissistic, but not the specific way that he is. In fact, if you want to examine some function-related theory on his personality, I think that Simulated World's speculation of Ne/Fe (and Fe/Ne) narcissistic personality disorder in ENTPs and ESFJs is worth examining.

No way am I an Se type. I'm either NP, or SJ.

I'm always right. And when I'm wrong, reality conforms itself to fit what I say. If I say plankton are extinct, plankton are fucking extinct goddamnit. I KNOW plankton are extinct. I edited the Wikipedia page.

That's not an answer.

Do you really need me to re-quote the cognitive processes or Lenore Thompson definition?

It's good to know you think the officially defined substructure of the system you're using is intellectual masturbation.

No, I need you to tell me what you think they are, since your interpretation obviously differs from mine. Snarky remarks will get neither of us anywhere, fun as they are.

Troy (I do not remember Homer's the Iliad very well, so I'll base this off the movie instead)

Paris: ESFP, all his ESFP weaknesses are glaring

Hector: INFJ, rational, but defintely a Feeler. he's pretty much the only character who actually has any kind of altruistic intentions

Achilles: ISFP, extremely contradictory. on one hand, he is a merciless killer, on the other, he has a sweet romantic side and is a rather independent thinker when it comes to his values. his actions to me scream Fi with the SP fascination of glory, status and impulsiveness secondary to this. he is a good represention of Introverted Feeling tho. he's romantic and has strong values, but he only cares about a select few people. if you go against his values or hurt one of those few people tho, he will unleash the might of the gods and show no mercy to his enemies as witnessed when Hector kills Patroclus.

Priam: dillusional ESTJ or ISTJ. he has moments of wisdom, but overall he has this warped sense of the way things are supposed to be and has little knowledge of how they actually are. he also seems to care more about the gods and the rules of the land than his own sons.

Patroclus: definitely F, but that's all I can say for sure. at times he seems SFJ, at other times INFP or ISFP and still other times ENFJ, which I think is the most likely

Ajax: ENTJ, the stereotypical buff bearded warrior who crushes everyone with his sheer man power =P

Menalaous: ESTJ, sorta like Agamemnon, but without the ENTJ ambition and placing higher value in tradition and "honor" (in other words, Pride)

Agamemnon: ENTJ, although he looses most of his rational powers because of his pride and arrogance which cloud his judgement

Odysseus: ENTP, the only actually rational person in the whole movie who doesn't let his pride get him killed. he also has all the inventive powers and trouble shooting abilities that are trademarks of ENTPs.

Eudorus: ESFJ? definitely SJ, but an extremely bad ass one who doesn't take the rules too seriously. he seems E because he's a wild and crazy killer and F because SFJs tend to follow people as opposed to STJs who follow sets of rules and regulations

Briseis: ENFJ, certainly an Idealist, definitely stark contrast between her extraverted feeling and Achilles introverted feeling

Helen: no clue. If I had to guess, ISFP, INFP or INFJ. definitely not SJ tho

Ajax: ENTJ is not the stereotypical brute. ;) I'd say, however, that ENTJ, ESTJ and ESTP are all possibilities. The character was nowhere near developed enough to really narrow it down any further (in Socionics he's a glaringly obvious ESTp-Se, but that's all I can tell for sure).

Priam: ISFJ. I completely agree with your assessment, but I disagree that's the kind of shit you'd expect from a Te-dominant. Te is easily the most objective of all Judging functions, as it demands tangible evidence supporting the workability of an idea before committing to it. Priam, on the other hand was all "hurr, the Gods say we're gonna win so we're gonna win damnit," which is more indicative of externally-based subjectivity than externally-based objectivity -- Fe rather than Te.

Eudorus I'd say is ISFJ, and doesn't take the rules seriously simply because his idol (Achilles) doesn't.

Patroclus is an impulsive ESFP little brat. Like Paris, but badass (or better-trained rather -- Paris did show huge cojones going up against Menelaus).

Helen: ISFP.

Hector is definitely either INFJ or ISTP. I'm leaning towards the former, but I haven't seen the movie in a while.

Agree on the rest.

Interesting typing. He didn't seem that extroverted, but maybe you're right. Either way, I wish they had a made a sequel to this. Sean Bean makes a good Odysseus.
