May I make a nomination? If so, please add George Carlin to your ENTPs list. My reason for this nomination is a friend of mine took a real MBTI type test administered by a professional and he is a "verified" ENTP. His personality appears to be very similar to George Carlin's. Thus Carlin must be an ENTP.

That's quite a broad leap. A personality can be shaped by environment. Exhibiting similar traits is superficial at best.

Anyway, I think this is supposed Merkw's list based on his opinion, and if he takes your suggestion, then it would kind of be a joint list rather than his opinion.

You are correct but I am only trying to nudge him into the right direction (mine).
