Laughing so hard at his description of Se in the Inferior position starting at 10:24.

It's me!

He's an ENTP; he probably did this just to troll IFPs.

But no, seriously, that bothered me as well. Eric is a bit of a space cadet and his videos aren't usually well-structured--he meanders a bit before making a point (seems fairly typical of NTPs' videos). I assume that meandering, almost conversational style is fairly common with NTPs, as they will hold a dialogue with themselves, at least from outsiders' perspectives. Especially with the E variety.

lol. That would be fitting indeed. haha

But yeah, I agree re your assessment and ntp's in general.

I noticed too. I combed back through it searching for a Te description and found none. I was hoping to share with a friend. Ah well. Classic Pe-dom wandering.

He shows his NTP colours on Ti and Fi inferior :D

Some serious bias on those. Si was spot on though.

He also failed to mention the paranoia that Ne in the fourth slot produces. Too many options, not enough data = fear explosion...especially with Si as a dom.

I do think he got Ni in 4th right, despite being perhaps...too colourful :D

Lol at Fe, apparently i am not even aware of its presence or know how i need or want it. If this is inferior Fe i must need to become another type to work on it so its not inferior, but then once i do that i dont have inferior Fe. Good thing i am not a hopeless type or what he said may beat me down about helping fix it.

I just need help with it.

Lol on him commenting about inferior Ni and using his cat as an example. God! That's one of the most irritating inferior functions for me to deal with when someone has it. No. Stop believing that shit. You don't know it. Nobody knows it. You're not special for believing that way. It's super obvious this is not true. It's kind of funny to watch while irking me at the same time.

I don't relate to his example verbatim but I see my inferior Se work when some days I want only this genre of music or other days where I'm like okay what different food is there to try? Obviously my hamburger / Taco Bell diet is getting old. (Goes back to it a couple days later)

When it comes to exercise. The gym I always try something different. I hate just doing one thing consistently. (When I even go to the gym lol) I usually run as my main form of exercise and I try to change my routine on where I run frequently what pace and maybe add a couple of twists to the course. Then I like don't exercise at all thinking okay I'll just do sit ups and push ups. (Stretches out of nowhere at work)

Then I get into a protein craze then I don't care about protein at all. Wow. But since exercise is so individual, it can't really initiate people unless someone just likes to watch you what you do or your coach needs you to be more consistent.
