ENTJs are funnier than ENTPs in my opinion
I have met several people whom I thought were ENTP's but they have insisted they were ENTJ's.
Why did I think so? Because their homes had some of the 'chaos' I have witnessed in "P" homes and because these women seemed kind of all over the place, flexible etc, very friendly and outgoing.
The two INTPs I know are both space cadets. Regardless of the introversion both were somewhat team players and liked helping others at work. ??? Weird for NTs. I assume theyre both of the social variant.
ENTPs can pass as ENFPs on the surface. Once you look closer youll find a colder more rational mind. They're out of control just as ENFPs can be and seem to "flow" with things, but the ENTPs know what theyre doing and where they want to be heading. IME ENFP are just wacky and zany. Like ESFPs but more creative and dreamy.
I find this description to be grossly innacurate and mildly offensive.
I wonder if people who do not get us tend to dismiss us as being nothing more than just, "wacky and zany".
ENFPs are chalk full of substance and insight. and I would say that we are pretty down-to-earth in our idealism. Perhaps you've never met an ENFP and consequently are projecting a false type description.
Both ENTJ and ENTP are leaders. ENTP more the kind that takes you under their wing and convinces you the sky is green and he can walk on water. Theyre great at building followers out of others. ENTJ the kind that just tells you what to do. More like an ESTJ.
I agree with Captainchick.
As an ENTP, I don't feel the urge to lead people. And I guess Nemo will agree with me.
I like to inspire people, or to be the eminence grise sometimes, but I'm definitely not a born leader. I respect individuality far too much. Who am I to order people to conform to my own subjectives rules?
I'm on to you, Electric. Expressing your actual evil-ENTJ thoughts knowing everyone will think it's a joke! Brilliant! It's like Dooku telling Obi-Wan that the Emperor was really in charge. He knew Obi would never believe it and he'd be able to have himself a good chuckle over it. Mwuuuuhahahahahahaha!For who are you to us, insect?
Anyways there's a big difference between ENTPs and ENTJs. If you cross an ENTP's path, the worst you will get is a terrible practical joke dumped on you. Like if you give an ENTP an undeserving grade or a harsh punishment, you can expect to see your car hauled and cemented to the school building roof. Even funnier, you might see your classroom furniture superglued upside down to the ceiling. All this can be a shocking experience as the ENTP really oned up you but at least you're still safe. You might even feel a level of respect at the hard work the ENTP put into his ingenious prank.
However, if you cross an ENTJ's path, you have done it now. Because of your ignorance and astounding boldness, you are deemed worthy of our time to DESTROY you. For who are you to us, insect? Get in our way and we will f**king KILL you! There is nothing for you to do to save yourself. All your efforts will be meaningless for we are legion, we are many.
Yeah. That's a basic difference I see between ENTPs and ENTJs. I would think ENTPs are more flexible to compromise.
WTF?????ENTPs are the types that will bang your girlfriend, get it on videotape, and play it on a big screen TV infront of your co-workers when you least expect it. Or even somehow arrange to have it shown at the local bar they know youll be at with your buddies, just to humiliate you. What could possibly be worst than that.
No. I'm probably ENTP. and I know how I think and what I'm capable of. Also have two really good ENTP friends and have seen them engaged in "revenge mode" on others. It's not pretty.
The whole "ENTPs are like the mad scientist from the movie Back To The Future" stereotype is rubbish.
Tertiary Fe is likely something one does not want to cross, I agree. Fe can be terrible when scorned in and of itself, but in the tertiary position I can imagine it as a terror. There's got to be some good in there, too, though, somewhere...
And I've heard that Doc Brown as being typed as INTJ.
