I hate it when I see characters totally not fitting a type. And I get frustrated with that fairly often. The ESFP, for example, having the nobility and idealism of an INFP. Bah! They want their heros to have it all! And it doesn't happen that way in real life.

They really are sort of forced into it, I mean who wants to watch a roomfull of nerds reading and staring at a computer screen?

Let's all give the poor writers of the world a break!

I am watching Boondocks.
Stinkmeaner is a total INTJ.

Tommy Lee Jones' character in Men in Black is a good example of an ISTP, I think.

Just wanted to pitch in, carry on

Yeah!

I've actually heard it said that Laura Ingalls Wilder is an S, due to the vivid details in her stories.

Hmm, from Ah My Goddess:

Skuld: ENTP if there ever was one.
Uld: ESTJ
Belldandy: ESFP

Guilty Gear:
Sol: INTJ
Ky: ISFJ
Slayer: ESTP?

I-I can't believe someone did that! I was thinking on doing it but thought nobody would know about them.
But I disagree on Sol and Ky. I think Sol is more of a P (he hates 'doing his best'), but since INTP doesn't fit him I'd say ISTP, and Ky is more of an E and T. For the others... The most archetypal are in my opinion:
Johnny: ESTP
Venom: ISFJ
I-No: ENTJ
Jam: ENFP
Anji Mito: INTP
Baiken: ISTJ

And I'm spent.

What does "his Ne is ridiculous" mean?
