It's Over

Using their intuition to process this information, they are usually extremely quick and accurate in their ability to size up a situation.

I actually scored 100% on the Intuition category and just moderately high on the E,T &P. The above makes sense to me because it describes how I make my living. I intuit the value of books in a very quick manner. I have to do this because my competition is right there by my side trying to do the same thing. So, for instance, I'll walk into a university library sale and see that they have a large table of mathematics titles. I quickly scan the titles and when I start seeing things like a 1950 translation from the Russian on the topic of Homologous Groups, I know that I've hit gold and I start loading my boxes real fast. I used the same skill when I worked in HR. I once amazed my boss because after an interview I said "We can't hire her because she is a cocaine addict.". He did a background check and found out that I was right.

They get excited and enthusiastic about their ideas, and are able to spread their enthusiasm to others. In this way, they get the support that they need to fulfill their visions.

Don't you guys think it will be SUPERFUN! to help me in my quest to have a fantastic sex life?

the implementation of an idea is usually a chore to the ENTP. For some ENTPs, this results in the habit of never finishing what they start.

BTDT. Much more fun to plan the garden than to pull weeds. This tendency in myself is what I fight against with my multi-layered ToDo lists.

ENTPs are fluent conversationalists, mentally quick, and enjoy verbal sparring with others. They love to debate issues, and may even switch sides sometimes just for the love of the debate. When they express their underlying principles, however, they may feel awkward and speak abruptly and intensely.

This should be abundantly apparent to everyone on this BB.

ENTPs are usually verbally as well as cerebrally quick, and generally love to argue--both for its own sake, and to show off their often-impressive skills. They tend to have a perverse sense of humor as well, and enjoy playing devil's advocate. They sometimes confuse, even inadvertently hurt, those who don't understand or accept the concept of argument as a sport.

Big problem in my marriage. My H absolutely does not understand or accept the concept of argument as a sport. My baby sister who is a lawyer is almost certainly also an ENTP but more E than me. My H described the way the two of us interact/converse when we get together as "self-indulgent" and it annoyed him to no end. I do a lot of verbal sparring with my S18 also. He is cranky like his father but unlike his father he enjoys debate so we have a sort of loving/bickering relationship.

ENTPs have little patience with those they consider wrongheaded or unintelligent, and show little restraint in demonstrating this.

Hey, it's not my fault that you are wrongheaded, so why are you angry that I called you wrongheaded?

In terms of their relationships with others, ENTPs are capable of bonding very closely and, initially, suddenly, with their loved ones. Some appear to be deceptively offhand with their nearest and dearest; others are so demonstrative that they succeed in shocking co-workers who've only seen their professional side. ENTPs are also good at acquiring friends who are as clever and entertaining as they are. Aside from those two areas, ENTPs tend to be oblivious of the rest of humanity, except as an audience -- good, bad, or potential.

All pretty much true.
