    LOL!

    I think I'll stick with "Mastermind," though. It sounds more impressive than "Hatchet Man"!

    wink

    I'm not really too concerned that you're all ganging up. ENTPs' "good humor and optimistic outlook tend to be contagious, and people seek out their company." Also, we are "usually easy-going, seldom critical or nagging."

    I'll try not to do much emoting. wink

    Thanks! Say, i just found the Wiki site with the famous ENTPs. When I describe myself to people, now I guess I can say "I'm just like Walt Disney, or Thomas Edison!" I'll probably not mention that i'm like Weird Al...

    Ok, I can't wait to read this thread in full, but for now all I can do is say - Oh yes, I'm an ENTP, with T/F being quite near the middle, the rest of the scores being about as extreame as one could imagine. I totally agree that only open questions are alive. My DH is an ISFJ, with his SFJ being somewhat near the border.

    Lately I've been wishing for a more nuanced designations. I for example am Highly F and Highly T. A person might be near the middle because there aren't much N or S. Even with my 'super P' I'm developing a nice strong J side, thanks to Flylady. I mean, my J is probably stronger than most 60% of the J's out there, as I'm learning to take some pleasure/pride in task completion.

    Well, not sure if that make any sense. I have read that the idea is that all of us are developing all our qualities throughout our lives, but that we will always have our 'natural' tendencies.

    I'm solidly in the INT camps, with J being closer to the middle.

    Maybe this is why I can't ever seem to get ALL the laundry done, folded and put away?

    Oh my, can I identify with that! I'm solid INT, my J/P just tips in favor of P.
