What sorts of social and/or work roles do you think each type has?

Example-

INFP- The quiet guy that observes people and adds in a witty and/or self deppreciative yet hilarious comment every now and then.

The naive and out there yet insightful person.

That really shy girl that squirms in her seat when you stare at her and get her out of her daydreaming.

ESTJ- That guy that just cannot resist adding in his opinion in a way that it seems better than any other one.

Etc. These are from experience.

Add yours!

(These are personal experience ones rather than stereotypes :) ) A lot of them I picked the more derogatory examples rather than the good ones, so its not really accurate.


ESFJ: I would say "the one who"
but they come in groups usually.
The chatty ladies at the ice cream social who brought the upsidedown cake and pictures of their children.

ESTJ: The person who is always your immediate supervisor no matter what kind of work you do or what status you hold.

ISFJ: The little wide eyed short haired blonde sitting in the corner with the other wide eyed short haired brunette and sitting up straight and who is listening intently to the other's sob story and nodding slowly.

ISTJ: The friend that you call when you're stranded on the side of the road to come pick you up and look up the number of a towing company for you.


ENTJ: The person who considers all angles of your problem, comes up with multiple solutions, chooses the best one, and attempts to fix it or get you to fix it before you even knew that there was a problem.

INTP: The quiet guy at the party who becomes the life of the party at around 4 in the morning when everyone's drunk and high and he's talking about constellations or whatever his weird field of expertise.

ENTP: The loud guy at the party who can manage to turn any topic at any corner of the room into politics, religion, or sex. Or a combination of the three. Leaves that conversation to start anew in another corner of the room.

INTJ: The anti-fun. The person who's voice is always on mute or full blast opinion mode.

ENFP: The high pitched girl that giggles about everything, can not put together a complete sentence and whos boobs jiggle a lot. Male ones are the same.

ENFJ: The born again Christian turned minister. An inner light projecting from their heart a message of joy with underlying unspoken theme "you're a sinner and you're going to hell."

INFJ: The one who asks you out of the blue cryptic unanswerable questions. like "What's wrong? Your aura is looking cloudy today."

INFP: The one who wears tee shirts with messages and pictures on them.
Happy ones perhaps a big smiley face that says something like "smile"
Emo ones perhaps a black tee shirt with simple white writing that says "heavily medicated for your protection."

ISTP: The mechanic ex-boyfriend who smokes a pack and a half a day. His butt crack shows. Great in bed. Doesn't speak in public.
ESTP: That popular cousin whos name you drop when you're trying to get into a party.
ESFP: That annoying girl with a low cut shirt and short skirt who is trying to drop her cousin's name to get into the party and then drinks all the beer.
ISFP: That guy whom everyone refers to as "Jesus" in relation to his long hair, long beard, guitar, and sandals.

INFP - The nice quiet guy who is a covert smartass. The one that people like despite his quietness.
ISTJ - The student who looks bewildered when you tell him there's not one right answer to the question.
ESFJ - The girl who gives a speech about how her life changed for the better after she watched "The Passion of the Christ."
ISFJ - The girl that tells boring stories about how much she loves her family and expects you to care and/or relate.
INTP - The weirdo guy who stays up all night long playing "Sins of a Solar Empire. Alternatively, the nearly silent (also weirdo) girl who has trouble answering questions as basic as "what do you want for lunch?"
ESTP
- The asshole guy that you think is your friend one minute, then the next minute betrays you right in front of your face.
ENFP - That girl who talks way too much. You know, the one who is annoying despite the fact that you know she is actually smart?
ESFP - That girl who wears too much makeup and has orange skin due to overdoing the fake tanning.

Yep, this is me. There are probably people in some of my classes who would like to throttle me.

Yikes, This kind of fit me. lol I seem to somehow always run into the same people... it can get rather creepy at times. Also, I can come off really spacey/ditzy/dumb where people like to pull things over me (I usually let them cuz I don't care).
