I can't resist. I'm jumping on the haters bandwagon. (I think i'm the fifth! isfps, entps, intps, intjs)

Well why the heck not.
I know you guys are going to be bursting with stories.

I'll start.
I hate us because we don't have a lot of tolerance for anxiety. Something goes mildly unfun and we're having visible panic attacks and shouting.

(Don't know if anyone else noticed that one.)

i don't know if I'm E enough to answer this...but whatever :cheese:
I have zero tolerance for anxiety and pain...but I'm capable of suppressing any feelings in no time...so no panic attacks here...I can just tell myself something about the current situation, forget and and start acting like nothing happened....

Yea, its not everyone. I think more mature ones and more introverted ones are better with this. I have this problem and know other esfp's with this problem. I get stressed and I hear my voice rise and my face turns red and I get mad. But I think that's because I, (and some other ESFP's) can't see three minutes ahead and remember that it will eventually all be over. For me life is right now. Literally. This can cause problems that if the moment is going poorly than I feel like life will be shitty until the end of time. So I yell about it.

I hate ESFPs because they are the first to break and give in to police interrogations.

That is rough, ShortNSweet! I am so glad I'm a ESTP and not a ESFP!

That "feeling business" sounds terrible.

I'd much rather be a cold, detached, analytical goofball!

This might be shallow advice, but if you get stuck in the moment (as many of us sensors do) and your moment sucks, and you begin to go into a downward spiral over it, then you might want to try giving into one of your more harmless vices, or other quick and easy guilty pleasure.

Can you kill the downward spiral with an upward hiccup??? Best of luck! :hug:

Oh boy. I am just the same way. I am older and more introverted (isfp) but three minutes ahead are relatively meaningless to me. If I feel that the world is ending now, that's it. No perspective. It was a nightmare when I was a kid and the other kids were tormenting me, and I didn't know that, some day, it would end.
Eeek.

As an ISTJ, I must make sure this thread gets back on it's tracks and we can all start hating ESFPs again.

I don't like 'em xSFP too much. They are far too superficial for me. I don't consider them to be very good friend material. Why? Because the lack commitment to understand other persons beyond surface. They think everyone should follow the fashion and trends. They change their friends as often as they change their clothes. They are the most herd-minded type there is. They like what others like, and they hate what others hate.

This is based on my experience on (possibly unhealthy?) xSFPs.

There, you asked for it. :)

Well...ESFPs, anyway. They're definitely my favorite SP type.

Personally, though: I hate ESFP because she wouldn't let me put it in her butt, that one time. True story.

TSK TSK TSK So typical.

Well guess what ya robot?, nobody likes you either, you stifflers only have the capability to emote stiff bread when trying to appeal to anything.


They are far too superficial for me.
Ha! says the bureacratic automaton who upholds countless of useless ancient traditions. ISTJ's sole purpose in existence is to be an automaton, nothing more and nothing less, you ISTJ's should be lobotmized and used as bureacratically-oriented labour, sorting out book cases, typology and that sort of stuff.

I don't consider them to be very good friend material.
The only time anyone would consider an ISTJ a friend, is when they want their messes to be sorted out, by some temporary DUPE, mallable.

Why? Because the lack commitment to understand other persons beyond surface.
They think everyone should follow the fashion and trends.[/QUOTE]
ISTJ's think that people should all be Si automations, working, raising families, establishing habits, considering excitement to be degenercy, following the uniform conformist views of Contemporary society, going to church, taking the priests crazy words literally, and calling anything that doesn't jive with them blasphemy.


They change their friends as often as they change their clothes.
It´s because we CAN.

They are the most herd-minded type there is. They like what others like, and they hate what others hate. :)
Hah says the predominant Si. SFP's atleast have the capability to distinguish themselves.

There, you asked for it :).
You want war?, i will give you a WAR!, in the SP fashion. You're not the only one with the ability to send rockets from the generalizing platform.

(excuse the cheapiness of this post.)
