Hmmmm...I think this thread helped explain to explain why people say that I act like Demetri Martin sometimes. And I had been wondering about that for awhile 
And I was also interested in Louis CK. I had seen one of his stand-ups before, and a show he has now reminded me of him. Looking at the his vids on youtube, I don't actually don't really think he's INTP, I thought maybe ENTP. The bit about forming opinions on people in the store definitely drew me away from thinking him INTP (I think we normally try our best to never jump to conclusions with incomplete data).
I would just like to hear peoples opinions.
And about Anthony Jeselnik. I definitely don't think he's INTP. You say that he seems INTPish because he is "Clever, ironic, deadpan, and dark." Now I think that just a very broad interpretation of what "INTP humor" would be, but I'll continue. The reason he doesn't come off as INTP to me is that he able to portray himself so confidently that the way he looks at things (which I guess would typically be considered "Mean" or "Cruel" by society) is the right way and nothing is wrong with it. Most INTPs, I think, are not nearly as confident enough in their beliefs as they would need to be in order to pull it off the way that guy does. (But for the record, I actually did think he was kind of funny, I just didn't see qualities of an INTP in him)
