MBTI: What's your type, who are your favorite writers?

>he thinks he can divide human personalities into sixteen groups

Fucking stupid

mm by writer I included content, and by that he makes up for his very technical mechanical style. I think I gave enough examples of writers with distinct prose style to give a full pallete of taste to counterpoint my personality type. On a sidenote Kant was probably Intp (not to say that means a whole lot)

Of course you can, just like you can divide people into men/women, tall/short. Its not meant to be a 100% description of your entire being, just a way of referencing yourself among others using clear cut indicators

INTJ
Dostoevsky
Balzac
Camus

Imagine being this bitter you don't have the Godtier Hitler personality. Typical ISFJ

>not enjoying baroque prose

Yeah man, psychology is all just speculation. Everything is subjective. Nothing really means anything. Nobody is really special. Have you ever heard of My Chemical Romance? Man, you should listen to them.

>ENFJ
>Čapek

Am I the only extrovert in this thread?

INTJ
Stirner
Nietzsche
Ragnar Redbeard
Hobbes
Homer
Goethe
Tolkien
Heinlein

He's not baroque, unless you mean that figuratively in the sense of archaic. Whichever way you mean it, he is still not even in the top 100 for his era stylistically speaking. He himself admits in the preface to the Critique that he doesn't possess a talent for self expression

MBTI isn't exactly psychology.

INTJ:
>Plato, Aquinas, Spinoza, Montaigne, Kant, Kierkegaard, Heidegger, Deleuze, Suzuki
>Rilke, Crane, Shelley, Stevens, Pessoa, Loy, Williams, Berman
>PKD, Gogol, Lowry, Joyce, Tolstoy, Hawkes, Kafka, Brautigan, Marlowe

Recs?

Compared to what?

t.xSxx faggot

just lol if you don't believe in astrology

ENFP:
Aristotle, Spinoza, Nietzsche, Hegel, Heidegger, Seneca, Cortazar, Bergson, Borges, Ortega y Gasset, Vonnegut, Faulkner. Just naming what came to mind first. I suppose this test is not really reliable, but i was curious.

>astrology for redditors
>actual psychology

INFP
You will all be talking about me in five years.

...

No. I get 50/50 intro-extro mix

INTJ/ENTJ

Architect or Commander, depending on the mood.

Hugo
T.S. Eliot
Camus
Melville
W.B. Years
Chekov

We are not sure if Homer sang the Illiad, but we know for sure he was an INTJ. Fuck this pseudo science bullshit, you're a top-tier brainlet if you believe this

Dude he's just naming his favorite authors. You're missing the point of the thread

Oh right, hadn't read the title of the thread

>took a test
>criticizing MBTI
Why are you criticizing something you know close to nothing about? You aren't supposed to use tests. The online tests do not measure functions. Your type has to be determined through an actual understanding of typology, not through a test.

entp

robert anton wilson
philip k dick
tolstoy
st augustine
reich
evola
cormac mccarthy

mbti is retarded but its fun to think about

>tfw INFJ

IxTx
thoughtful things

Why shouldn't the 8 functions be able to go in any order? Can't there be more than just 16 types?

ENTP

Dazai
Kafka
Wittgenstein
Nietzsche
I really prefer nonfiction.

You have 4 functions in the order of dominant-auxiliary-tertiary-inferior as well as 4 shadow functions that are the introverted/extroverted mirrors of your 4 functions. So if you are Ni dominant, you also have shadow-dominant Ne, which manifests at your worst. The shadow functions are rarely talked about and not taken very seriously in the typology community. I've found that they are very accurate for some people and completely inaccurate for others.

see psychologyjunkie.com/2016/08/19/infj-darkness-understanding-infjs-shadow-functions/ for the shadow functions of INFJ

INTP (female)

dostoyevsky, nabokov, cioran, mishima, artaud, tseliot, borroughs

>Mishima
An archetypal INFP taken to an extreme

INTP; Melville, Dickinson, Joyce, Yeats, Wittgenstein, Orwell, Jefferson, Hitler, Darwin, Pearl Poet, Laozi, Nietzsche, Tolstoy, Virgil, Cicero, Le Guin, Shakespeare

If you're not an NT, please leave my board.
>INTP
The Greeks [except Euripides and Aristotle]
Shakespeare

Bonus:
Melville
Woolf
Apollinaire
Miller

lmfao how will that dude ever recover

>tfw Veeky Forums is mainly comprised of INTP's and INTJ's.

What does it mean?

that personality type is attracted to the nature of this site, most other types wouldn't waste their life on Veeky Forums

The first time I took it I got INTJ, then INTP. I read through most of the analytic philosophy cannon and now I alternate between INTP and INFP, but I think it's just that I've grown more disdainful of how lays use words like "logic"/"logical" in everyday conversation (and on the test, which isn't very good).

Infj

Any journalist turned novelist

>ESTJ
>Fitzgerald
>Stegner
>Hemingway
>McCarthy

INTP at 12
INTP at 16
INTP at 21

so INTP

my nigga

There are two types of people on Veeky Forums, NTs and tourists. Or underage fags on /b/ /mu/ Veeky Forums etc.

basically, this

I'm ESTJ. Granted I only have this running in the background while I study and go over the news every night for a couple hours.

Hahahaha! Well spoken, sir. I simply cannot stand idly by while this superstitious nonsense is proselytised on my favourite subreddit.

My Myers–Briggs Type Indicator personality type is INTJ.
Image related – my favourite book.

>ISTP

Seems like it´s not the literary type at all. I still like reading a lot though.

keys2cognition.com/explore.htm
Anyone who hasn't taken this test don't know their MBTI type.

>INTP
Zhuangzi
Schilhab
Heidegger
Laozi

Why?

MBTI, the ultimate pseud horoscope.

INTP. Got INFP once
Don Quixote

Idk

t. ISFJ virgin

>INTJ
Goethe
Homer
Dostoevsky
Thucydides
Euripides

INTJ
Nabokov, Borges.

ENTP,
İhsan Oktay Anar is my fav so far. I doubt if you can find English translations of his books.

nah mate, INTP, but have a hard time taking it seriously.

>developed by a mother and daughter with no formal training in psych assessment or psychometrics.
>discrete type categories, rather than continuums, with scores on MBTI scales piling in the middle, rather than at the high and low and as type theory would require of it
>typology requires mutually exclusive categories,, MBTI puts thinking and feeling at opposites poles of the same continuum, when in reality they are independent
>no research whatsoever measuring its ability to predict significant life outcomes
>as many as three quarters of test takers report a different personality type when tested again
etc etc

horoscope for pseuds.

INTP
Borges
Murakami
Camus
Gaiman
Ishiguro

Joyce
DFW
Pynchon
Faulkner
Dante
Malcolm X
de Beauvoir
Zinn
Pirsig
Suzuki
Twain
Would have been nice to have read in college, the part about getting absorbed in trauma is very relatable to the point where I let my trauma inspire me to get into politics/philosophy to try to save future generations from what I had to go through

REEEEEEE not this shitty test again

it has no basis in psychology or science

so stfu you dumbass pleb
INTJ, Euripides and Isherwood btw

>INTJ
>Euripides
Checkmate, atheists

>all these I's talking about the test being wrong

Meant to say INFJ

He has Dostoyevsky tho, ew. White Nights (more like white knights amirite) shows that Dosto was nothing but a whiny beta cuck who browsed /r9k/.

>He has Dostoyevsky tho, ew.

Excuse me?

Tolstoy = best Russian. Even pedo Nabokov was better than that shitty "hurr durr why did the love of my life who I just met friendzone me and leave me for her chad fiance" crap. Dosto is like the whiny incel of Russian Veeky Forums.

Compelling literary analysis. You sound like a woman

Your mum sounds like a woman.

Tbf I've only read White Nights and the start of the Idiot. However, based on that, Dosto seems like a completely pleb-tier pseudointellectual. He's a mediocre writer but his plots are dull.

That's an interesting opinion you have there. What do you think about avocados? Do you like them? What about blueberries?

Crime and Punishment and Notes from the Underground were revolutionary works in their ability to capture the raw alienated psychosis of the industrial subject in a way in which was unprecedented a full century before High Modernism.
If you're reading him for plot or philosophy you're completely missing the point.

Avocados taste good when fried in butter but they have too many calories. Despite the fact that blueberries brilliantly symbolise the essence of the working man's struggle in a post imperialist society, they taste ok but are a bit overrated.

>raw alienated psychosis of the industrial subject

Nice buzzword spam, do you work for Buzzfeed? I might look into CP in the future.

>Nice buzzword spam

You what on second thought maybe stick to Young Adult

ENTJ

>Julius Evola
>Ernest Hemingway
>HP Lovecraft
>Henry Miller

>Tolstoy
Nah boi, renounce your INTJ status to be quite tbqh with you desu

INFP

McCarthy
Gass
Mishima
Pynchon
Melville
Stirner
Endo
Wallace

this will probably change though, I'm very indecisive

totally, INFPs are the most lit type (second probably being INFJ)

I'd guess there's a bunch of INFP/J's here too

IN is really common on Veeky Forums in general tho

but this coincides exactly with what I got from every MBTI test i've ever taken

>implying you can't categorise normalscum into even fewer

i get the shit kicked out of me in real life but on here i can talk down to anyone

>it has no basis in psychology or science
But can you actually back this up instead of just posturing for your fellow pseuds?

>haha i bet he browsed r9k
>not me though, i just happen to think in r9k parameters like "whiny beta cuck incel" like a 14 year old taking a stand i dont actually browse r9k haha
Why do people do this?

Learn the functions, that's the core of MBTI. Unfortunately thats exactly where the bullshit lies

>INTJ
>Stirner

my man!
