It's more of a fill in the blank sort of thing. The Xes stand for blanks to be filled by dichotomies. Like this: You know you're a _ _ _ _ when...

I always liked this one from an old "You know you're an ISTP when" ( I think) thread:
"... when you think a blank stare is a perfectly adequate response to anything"

You know you're an XXXX, when ..

..you think acting according to a grand plan, just following the moods of the moment.

..A balanced rationale for you is to understand people having feelings and thought, requiring skill and heart to combine the two.

..You have plans for spontainety and you often plan spontaneously

..you rather think in terms like "effective", "wellbeing", "whole" and other non-personality-tied attributes

..you don't think, what would an WXYZ do?

Well, crap, you got me. I'm an XXXX.

When you're extremely indecisive.

Yeah, that works.

you know you're an XXXX when grandma's skin looks like the skin you want to flay and wear around the house to tuck your weiner in (because it has extra compartments in the wrinkles and tanning it will take half the time)

You know you're an ENTP when...

1) you get really interested in something to the point you almost can't talk about anything else (eg. post 150 times on typologycentral in a few weeks just because MBTI is your shiny new interest)
2) you see 10 threads like "ENTJ non-villains", "INFP villains", "ESFP comic dumb characters" and you make a new thread called "villains and heroes of type XXXX" trying to find examples for each of them.
3) you get frustrated other people aren't posting in a general thread like "you know you're an XXXX when", preferring a particular thread called "you know you're an ESFP when" or something.
4) you post this thing into a thread called "you know when you're an XXXX" instead of making a new thread called "you know you're an ENTP"
5) you actually see no difference between points 2), 3) and 4) of this post and want to combine them into one point

Edit: 6) You check your general theory by looking at the profile of the original poster of this thread. Yes, an N, my understanding holds!
7) You edit your post a few minutes after posting to add 6) and 7) (instead of first looking and then posting like the judging types would do)

You've starred in the most disgusting, degrading, close-up pornography imaginable.

1) you get frustrated when others are making fun of a generalizing thread instead of adding their ideas, because you want to see those stereotypes *together*!
2) you don't realize you're actually rude to the previous poster with (1) (Yes, yes, feeling side of me, I'll add this one. If I offended you with my point 1), I'm sorry. It's not my intention to offend anybody - I just want to get this general thread going)

ENTP:
-You get bored waiting for your buchner funnel to vacuum filter your product and set up a series of funnels that drip into one another to save time.
-You make science (or insert other discipline here) sound like fun and games to everyone you talk too.
-You make green custard, crossbows and railguns when you get bored.
-Everything you say is wildly exaggerated, to the point where people argue with you over it.
-You get through the day by convincing yourself that whatever work you are doing is a game.
-Crazy Kookaburras, lightsabers and a dwarf the thinks he's a fish inhabits your imagination, and duke it out to your own amusement
-You often cross the line with people and don't understand why
-You dream up spontaneous plans (non-specific) plans that don't tend to work out perfectly.

You know you're an INFP when
-SPs think you're solid and straight-laced
-SJs think you're a mess
-NT's think you're irrational, but not unintelligent
-you know at least 5 people with a never-knowing-when-to-shut-up disorder, and they ALL find you because you're the only one who doesn't actually tell them to shut up

You know you're an ENFJ when:
1) You like everyone by overlooking their bad qualities
2) You run away from conflict you can't fix
3) You are overly talkative
4) You find it difficult to hold grudges for long
5) You freak out if you're alone
6) You are overly trusting

I REALLY hope I do this. It's my main goal as a teacher.

ENTP teachers tend to be the best in my experience, pretty sure I'm a little biased though.
