A very interesting video...

This video was on reddit a few days ago, and I couldn't help but look at it from an MBTI perspective. I'm curious what you all think.

I guess I should warn you: this will very likely piss you off.

Putting aside the obvious dysfunction present in this family, the behaviors on display are incredibly interesting.

The big one that I suspect all of us can relate to is the lock-down the son puts on his Fe when his mom enters the room. It's not that he isn't mad or doesn't care. If that was the case, I'm guessing he'd just flip her the bird and plainly tell her off. No, he does care. But his Ti knows that any response longer than a single word is not likely to be a rational one.

This seems to me like textbook INTP behavior, though I'm guessing it applies to ISTPs and other Ti types as well.

What do you guys think?

I think your warning was helpful.

Well, his mom seems to be an asshole, but when it comes to type, it didn't really clarify anything beyond the most obvious of traits. He's definitely and IxTx of some type and she's definitely some kind of ExFx given her fixation with socializing, but that's really all I get from it.

In regards tobehavior, yes, he behaves like I would in a similar situation (when my mom has a "talk" (which is infrequently, though unpleasant nonetheless) with me I usually say as little as possible because apparently most of what I say can be easily construed as "smartass" regardless of my actual intent) in that I either say nothing or keep my responses as short as possible.

If I'm an INTP then he probably is, too.

Hmm... Maybe I shouldn't make my thread titles so vague.

Questions: let us all type the characters in the video!

Unfortunately, this is how my father can quickly become on a minute's notice, due to some hidden reason, however arbitrary.
