ENTJ – You’re not an asshole, as everyone is so quick to say. You’re efficient and you know how the gears work. You understand that everyone has a place and a purpose and you like to be in charge of giving them that place because it irritates you to see time and potential wasted and people can trust you to be, well, efficient. A great example of an ENTJ (in my opinion) is Chris Traeger from Parks and Rec or Nate Ford from Leverage.
INTJ – People are ALWAYS typing INTJs as the villain and quite frankly this infuriates me because about 97.6% of the time, the person that you’re saying is an INTJ fails to be a good villain and that is not something an INTJ would do. Whatever they choose, they are good at it. They succeed. They are cold, rational, logical, calculating, brilliant – but that does not mean evil. They often are the kindest people you could meet – because they are logical, and being logical sometimes means being kind. Examples of an INTJ: Sam Winchester (I know, I know, surprising, but true – I wanted to give you an unusual example) and Ron Swanson from Parks and Rec.
ENTP – Quite frankly, the stereotype of you being like Tony Stark is fairly accurate. But just like Tony Stark, there is much more to you than drinking, partying, and sleeping around. Sometimes you do those things because you, like him, are trying to cover something that’s wrong and you don’t want others to find out. You’re brilliant and often stay up all night to devise some way to become lazier and walk less. Examples of an ENTP would be Tony Stark (Iron Man) and Hardison from Leverage.
INTP – At first you seem like a heartless sociopathic robot, but when you look past that, there’s so much more. You’re a massive dork. A loveable dork, an evil and deranged insomniatic obsessive dork, who also happens to be slightly kinky and secretly cares more than you let on. Don’t worry, we all love you too much to tell you that we know you have feelings. Examples of an INTP would include Sherlock Holmes from the BBC version of Sherlock and Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter (she’s on the line between INTP and INFP but she sways more towards T)
ENFJ – You always seem to have a million binders for everything and they’re always SUPER organized but in really fun ways, like with colours and pictures of ice cream and stuff. You always have waaaaaaaayy too much energy and talk like you’re either best friends with everyone or are trying to sell something. You’re sweet and you try to do what’s best for others but you can often end up manipulating them because you think you know what will make them happy. Examples: Sophie Deveraux from Leverage and Leslie Knope from Parks and Rec.
INFJ – You’re so selfless, what the heck, man! You’re a great listener and you really care about people. Unlike the stereotype, you are not actually a magical unicorn; you are a sweet little baby who actually is hurting a lot more than you let on and you certainly know a lot more than you say. You love puns and you’re pretty quiet but once you get going about something you’re passionate about, out come the giant hand gestures and the squeaky vocal stuff. Examples: Tara from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Galadriel from the Lord of the Rings.
ENFP – Oh goodness. You’re like this giant golden retriever with a short attention span and a serious problem with manipulation and mind games. You are sweet and you’re a big dreamer, you make a great friend and you love to get other people to envision exciting things; after all, you play to the crowd and your favourite thing is inspiring other people. But with great power comes great…hurt. You inspire people so much that they are blinded to your bad side and think only of your fluff and it can sometimes be a bad and painful ending. Be careful and be aware of others amidst your dreaming. Examples: Rapunzel from Tangled, Ariel from The Little Mermaid.
INFP – You are the sweetest and the dearest things, but surprisingly clingy and sometimes very selfish. And because you’re afraid of being clingy, you often internalize and blame yourself and start down a cycle of depression and self-hatred that comes out in some really unhealthy and scary ways. You are the best listeners and everyone just LOVES to be around you. You are imaginative, thoughtful, and you always know how to make someone feel loved. Nobody hates an INFP. Nobody. Examples in fiction: Belle from Beauty and the Beast and Frodo from LOTR.
ESTP – Sometimes, you ESTPs kind of scare me a little bit. You play people like life is a game and you want to see how many people you can get on your team, often by blackmailing or talking shit about people. You can be super sweet and sensitive, but you can also be a little bit two-faced. You internalize things a lot more than people realize and you see the world in a cold light. But you truly do love the people you are loyal to and yes, you are capable of loyalty although not many see that. You’re also insane. And I like that. Even though it scares me. Examples: Jack Sparrow from Pirates of the Carribean, Korra from Legend of Korra
ISTP – Suuuuuuuper laid back and evil. I’d say be more worried about ISTPs than INTJs but I’m honestly not sure which is worse. ISTPs seem super chill and then they murder you in the most horrific ways. ISTPs make the best friends, though, because they’ve always got your back and they don’t bother being nice to anyone unless they actually like them, and if they like someone, then they’re loyal to them. ISTPs make the best lowkey friends and if you get close enough, you may even learn their deep dark secrets – ISTPs are notoriously mysterious. Examples: Eliot from Leverage, Wolverine from X-Men.
ESTJ – Like the ENTJ, you’re not an asshole, but unlike the ENTJ, what you prize most is not necessarily the saving of time or effort but instead doing the job WELL. The ENTJ is concerned with how to efficiently run their organization; you are concerned with how to run it so that you can produce the best results, no matter how long the process. You don’t concern yourself with finding the person best suited for each individual position; instead, you rapid-fire assign tasks in order to get to the end result. You are organized but like to be seen in a softer light; you are more concerned than the ENTJ about how people view you. Your reputation is important to you and you want people to like you. Examples: Hermoine Granger from Harry Potter, Boromir from LOTR.
ISTJ – So many people are so wrong about you and it’s very frustrating to me. They see you as a one-dimensional character, like Javert or something, when in reality you are a complex individual, who is driven yes by duty, but also by your inner dreams and desires; which are actually often surprisingly endearing and emotional. People can see you as a cold, practical robot, who does whatever the law says and works the same stuffy office job with a cup of black coffee for 40 years; but ISTJs have a whole treasure trove of great traits. You are dedicated, yes, but that doesn’t mean you have to be dedicated to something boring. Also, every friend group needs an ISTJ, as you are very practical and grounded and bring sense and dependability to the group. Examples: Tiana from the Princess and the Frog, Martha Jones from Doctor Who.
ESFJ – Nobody gets as bad a rep as ESFJs and I’m here to fix that because HONESTLY ESFJs are the best and out of all the personality types, this is the one I see getting bashed the most. For that, to all you ESFJs out there, I just want to say I’m sorry. You are lovely lovely people who fiercely protect your own and express your emotions in a clear and free way that’s really inspiring. You also always have a plan and you are extremely perceptive and compassionate and unlike the ENFJ you don’t try to manipulate other people because you think it will make them happy. You can be a little overprotective and overcontrolling and intense, yeah, but you are the best hosts and hostesses and you are good at whatever you put your mind and attentions to. People need to stop hating. Examples: Dean Winchester from Supernatural, Bones McCoy from Star Trek.
ISFJ – Ahhhhh, you ISFJs. I really don’t have that much to say to you, except this: would you PLEASE stop being so worried about societal conventions, people-pleasing, and appearances? You need to treat yo self once in awhile! You are the loveliest, most organized, self-sacrificing, hard-working people, and I can’t express how much I appreciate what you do behind-the-scenes for other people, but you need to stop being so paranoid about what society thinks. Step out of your box! Examples: Samwise Gamgee from LOTR, John Watson from Sherlock Holmes
ESFP – You ESFPs are honestly so endearing. You are bubbly, energetic, bright, enthusiastic – you bring so much joy into a room and if you ever hurt anyone, it’s either unintentional or it’s done so straightforwardly that I really don’t mind at all. I mean, if you’re gonna be a jerk, at least do it to their face, not behind their back. You are a sweet ray of sunshine and you make all the rest of us really glad to know you. I’m sorry that sometimes the happy, carefree exterior can be a mask for the pain and darkness you’re going through. Examples: Buffy from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Andy Dwyer from Parks and Rec.
ISFP – ISFPs are the most complex and layered personality type. There have been many occasions where people have said to me that every time they felt like they knew me, they found a whole different side to me. Honestly, the most defining feature to an ISFP is NOT their artistic ability (which isn’t even a trait in most ISFPs) but instead their multifaceted, ever-evolving, adaptable, layered mysteriousness. They are fiercely independent and individualistic, having a live-and-let-live approach to life, and they do appreciate sensual things and aesthetics that they can experience through physical senses, which I suppose is where the “artist” stereotype came in. Examples: Harry Potter from Harry Potter, Parker from Leverage.
