I've read many threads about how "intoxicating" ENTPs and INFJs find each other. I don't think I've ever been close to an ENTP, so it's definitely made me curious.
Anyway, recently I started watching the show Psych, and I became rather intrigued by the main character (Shawn Spencer) because he's so random, off the wall, fun, can talk his way in and out of anything and is completely unaffected (or undetered) by other people's reaction to him. Even if someone if mad at him, it doesn't even phase him(I 'm envious of that ability, 'cause as an INFJ I can feel other people's emotion as if they were my own and sometimes it gives me anxiety). He just always finds a way to turn it into a joke, rather than getting mad in return.
I realize he's just a fictional character, but if I didn't know any better I would say he's an ENTP -or at least he fits the descriptions I've read of ENTPs. I was just curious if my assessment is accurate and (for those of you ENTPs who have seen the show) if you can relate to Shawn Spencer's personality traits - minus the whole fake psychic thing.
