i can't figure it out. what's his type?
I don't get that. His jokes weren't complex at all, they were immediate and based on amusing observations and some wordplay. From all I've heard and picked up on, NT humor seems to be sardonic and ironic in nature. There wasn't so much of that in his stand-up.
If it helps at all, I hate him.
xNTP humor is less about being sardonic and ironic (xNTJ) than it is seeing the humorous implications in things. Oftentimes, this does seem sarcastic and biting, but that's usually because the humor is in how humans constantly lie to themselves.
Also, SPs are supposed to be the ones who excel at wordplay.
However, INTPs' extraverted intuition often gives them a quick wit, especially with language. They may defuse tension through comical observations and references.
I think he's isfp, too, though entj conflictor Letterman having him on 9 times would seems to say otherwise at first glance.
Just listening to some of his stuff now. For me, it was between INTP and INFJ. I can't help but think his tendency to reinterpret situations in a bizarre manner was very Ni, but it could have just been Ti. No idea really.
Regardless, I fucking love him.
