Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant

Jack Flak · 09-21-2008, 02:20 PM

After several decent seconds of contemplation, I'll say:

Gervais: ENTP
Merchant: INTP

Partially because I've noticed a similar dynamic in my relations with ENTPs. We speak with equal frequency when "alone together," but in a group I'll stop talking almost entirely, because the ENTP says most which I think needs to be said. The first time I noticed this happen, the ENTP thought I was angry because I was so silent.

Explicit language warning, LOL!

What about Karl Pilkington?

I
N - He has an IQ of like 70 or something, so his approach to philosophical matters could been seen as S when he is in fact an N
T- seems Tish
P

Karl does seem INTP... he makes very unique connections to everything. Also doesn't really seem bothered much. I can imagine Gervais is an ENTP. I find them hilarious, always.

Pilkington INTP? I doubt that.

I'm not too familiar with these guys, but is Merchant too uptight to be a INTP? Maybe he is an INTJ with a sense of humor.

oops i was thinking about that shorter Merchant-looking guy from The Office uk. But yeah, I watch Extras, he's probably an INTP.

Karl's got to be N dominant.
