for that matter... where the fuck did my Fi go?
Of course you didn't sound condescending. Sick!!!If I sounded condescending or in any way offended you, I apologize. It was not my intention.
One last thing that I missed; in your typing of Foreman you mentioned that he doesn't seem to have House's ability to connect disparate ideas and interweave patterns. This is because Foreman is Ni-dom which is very different from House's very strong Ne. Ni, unlike Ne, doesn't find hidden patterns; its role is to predict events and solve paradoxes. You seem to have run into the same snag in typing Foreman as you did in typing me: you conflated the two intuitive functions. In his case it made you think Foreman as an N would think in a similar way to House, and in my case it made you think I as a Te-aux would act in a similar way to an NTJ.
So, reviewing:
Cuddy: ENTJ
Wilson: ENFJ
Cameron: INFJ
Chase: INTP
Foreman: INTJ
Taub: INTJ
Thirteen: ENFP
Kutner: ENFP
Amber: ESTP
Lucas: INTP

*Sarcasm*
You only go around calling people idiots when they don't agree with you. That's just sweet of you. Not at all condescending.
The idiot is Aleksei, Curzon, not you. He is totally wrong but is unable to recognize it.
I just don't get the weird obsession with typing everyone as an N... it's pretty rediculous and shows a lack of understanding about Sensing and all that the OTHER category of personality types entails and is able to do... which really seems unfair since I've put serious effort into studying the N functions and rarely see an N person extend the same courtesey... which is kind of fucked up since often the same people brag about how open minded Ns are :rolli:
Wow...you've seen the show, right?Cuddy- ENTJ
Cameron- ENFJ
Chase- ENTP
Foreman- INTJ
Wilson- ENFJ
Thirteen- ENTP
Taub- INTJ
Kutner (RIP)- ESTP
Amber (RIP)- ENTJ
Lucas- INTP

Well, no. If you review the literature on the subject (Whatever made an excellent thread on the workings of Ni and Ne, as well as Si and Se), you'll find that Ni's mode of operation is to think ahead (remembering forward if you will, as opposed to Si which remembers backward), not to connect dots. Synthesis is Ne work.Hmmm.. well Ni is also capable of connecting the dots. Ni doms especially do this quite well. And Ni doms I would say are better at connecting the dots than predicting the future. In fact isn't it because they are so good at connecting the dots they manage to predict what comes next? So your point regarding house would suggest he is a Ni dom????
Always have been.Cuddy, Wilson, Cameron, Chase are Ns now?
I think I have a fair grasp on what the Sensing functions do (and I do admit I've treated them a tad too harshly in the past). You do as well, but you seem to attribute a greater intellectual role to them than they actually possess simply because you yourself are a sensor and of course it's inconvenient for you to see them as brute functions.I just don't get the weird obsession with typing everyone as an N... it's pretty rediculous and shows a lack of understanding about Sensing and all that the OTHER category of personality types entails and is able to do... which really seems unfair since I've put serious effort into studying the N functions and rarely see an N person extend the same courtesey... which is kind of fucked up since often the same people brag about how open minded Ns are :rolli:
I changed my typing of him to INTP, but he's no S. He's very deductive (at times he's shown himself to rival House in that regard, such as in Season 3).Wow...you've seen the show, right?
Chase is very stereotypical ISTP, not remotely E or N, very private and practical, no fuss, certainly no blathering on about unnecessary things.
She is uncomfortable with emotions, but she's an Fi (not Fe, my initial guess was wrong), and she certainly is an extroverted intuitive. I ultimately concluded she's ENFP.Thirteen is also far from ENTP...I could see any of the IxxP types really, or perhaps even IxxJ...she's so private it's hard to tell, but she's very uncomfortable with her emotions which makes me think ISTP.
Possibly, but like Foreman his stuffiness seems Te on crack rather than Si, and he showed Ni rather than Ne; leading me to believe INTJ.Taub isn't very N at all. ISTJ perhaps.
These I could take into consideration.Wilson is debateable but seems like an ISFP to me, or perhaps a less-organized-than-usual ISFJ. Cuddy could be ENFJ or ESFJ, but her Fe is pretty apparent. She seems Te because her job is extremely demanding and rational, but the way she acts out her responsibilities suggests F.
Cameron could be ENFJ but she seems more ENFP to me...all focused on "what's right" instead of thinking about others' feelings.
Let's see... so far I've changed my typing of Thirteen (ENTP to ENFP), Chase (ENTP to INTP), Cameron (ENFJ to INFJ), and Amber (ENTJ to ESTP); and I seriously considered Foremand and Taub as ISTJs. I discarded it simply because their Perceiving functions seemed wrong (Ni and Se rather than Ne and Si).The idiot is Aleksei, Curzon, not you. He is totally wrong but is unable to recognize it.
I realize that. I count four characters in this thread alone I've admitted I was wrong about, so that seems kinda off the mark, don't you think?And if you read it again Spedo called you an idiot for being unable to realize you were wrong.
Medicine is not very theoretical - looking for physical symptoms (Se) and remembering diseases you've been taught that fit the symptoms (Si). Yes, there is more N involved in House than say, family medicine, but that doesn't mean nobody on the show can be a sensor. Biology and Medicine are the sciences that would most appeal to Ss, in my experience, and doctors in particular tend to be more SJ than the general population, possibly due to the academic requirements. It's not like House is running a theoretical physics lab, he's trying to cure people of their very physical, concrete diseases.Further, I don't consider Sensors incapable of intellectual thought as a rule. I just think that sensors would generally disinclined to deal with theoretical ideas, in the way that House's team does.
given you detected Foreman's lack of intuition and you all essentially pounced at the chance to label him an SJ without stopping to consider what he displays instead is Te rather than Si (which he uses almost not at all).

Yes. And find a diagnostic is a deductive thing by nature, that does'nt mean necessarly it's an N thing.PS I guarantee ISTPs can be just as deductive as INTPs, so that's hardly a reason to call Chase an INTP when all signs point in the opposite direction.
