There's a few ones I legitimately laughed out loud. ENTP, ISTJ... even mine: INTP.

[@trinaq]

"Well maybe their feelings AREN'T relevant." It's great to see that strong TE is evident in that family! 😂🤣

[@jenniferhanses7064]

This message is INTJ approved. ;)

[@jimclayson]

Middle aged INTP here. I WISH I could believe people's feelings weren't relevant. The best I can come up with is that their feelings aren't germane to the topic at hand and it shouldn't be my responsibility to dance around to avoid hurting their feelings... but other than NTs, few other types seem capable of debating under those guidelines, so I'm stuck in a world of feelers and have to keep myself restrained. I can't help but care about their feelings, even when I find them absurd and inconvenient. I often wish I was an INTJ...

[@Meg_intheclouds]

@@jenniferhanses7064 yeah I get that! My grandma is an ISFJ but tends to be of the belief that individuals feelings should be put on the back burner for the general feelings of the group. She would say things like “but they feel sad so that should make you feel sad”- or “that should make you angry” or “you should be happy for them” and I’m there like “I can be happy for them and acknowledge their success but it doesn’t change how I am feeling in this situation which is jealous and ashamed that I couldn’t do the same, both feelings can exist at the same time” which Is such an fi thing but the fact they are feeling a certain way doesn’t change because I’m feeling something and vica Versa. And then my mum is just straight up “your feelings are irrelevant” when to me my feelings are the most real and tangible thing to me more so than fact

[@runningfromabear8354]

As a kid, I was put outside the classroom for being disruptive. I noticed a drainpipe just across the courtyard that went up onto the roof. I climbed the drainpipe and went up onto the roof. My teacher came outside to talk to me about being disruptive. Couldn't find me. I got distracted on the roof and wandered off from school property. I was about 6 years old, really upset my teacher and parents. I can see why it would be tempting to duct tape me as a child. I wasn't loud but I got into everything. - ESTP

[@PeterJohnson-rh5hi]

I'm an ENFP, and I can confirm my ISFJ younger sister was too powerful for the teachers. My sisters' reputation got nerfed because I was infamous for shenanigans and tomfoolery, and my teachers would expect more of the same when they noticed how much we look alike. Despite all that, when I would come back and see my old teachers all of them would remark, "Rachel is so different from you..." and then gush about obedience, brilliance, dedication, and (of course) handwriting. It never failed to warm my heart. My sister does calligraphy and has regularly sent me letters during my many travels. Included in the letter will usually be a bible verse, song lyric, inspirational quote, or joke written in beautiful and artistic penstrokes; picked up from a phone conversation we had or a link I shared. I've saved every single one, and I don't normally cling to nostalgia.

[@edwright4892]

How lovely! (the second bit!)

[@CineMairon]

Reading that, I must say I felt both relating from the side of your sister, but at the same time bad because the teachers shouldn't compare you two. Each on of you have your powers and strengths. ENFPs are the most likely to travel around the globe without second thought and experience things we never will. Your interaction sounds exactly as mine (ISFJ) and my ENFP's cousin and also ENFP university best friend. And I must admit creating nostalgia to them is my superpower, especially with songs and my drawings which they keep over the years.

[@PeterJohnson-rh5hi]

@@CineMairon I often find myself falling into the trap of unhealthy comparisons when I should simply appreciate. Thanks for the reminder. I cherish my sister precisely because they provide a link to my past that I usually can't maintain without help. It truly is a superpower.

[@sagemaster1357]

Your sister sounds really lovely and I'm also like that with my twin brother. At home he would mess around and play jokes and I would be sitting in the leaving, quietly watching KZbin or Netflix. I'm more quieter than him but sometimes I like to take part of his silliness. I'm also into art and want to become a Fine artist and maybe travel.

[@jimclayson]

Middle aged INTP here. I never thought I was any "smarter" than my instructors, being acutely aware that my knowledge of any particular subject was incomplete. It just became increasingly clear that they didn't know as much as they thought or pretended to know. Their knowledge was often as limited as my own, and sometimes even MORE limited. Back before the internet caught on, I spent a VERY brief time in community college before dropping out. One of my teachers tried explaining the Monty Hall Problem (although he didn't use that name), as it had always fascinated him and he didn't quite understand the math behind it (and he was teaching a math class). I wasn't familiar with it at that time, but I was able to solve it in a few seconds in my head. I stayed after class and walked him through it as politely as I was able. We're all ignorant. It's just that some of us are ignorant in areas where we have no business being ignorant and still expect other people to respect us for having silly letters after our names or having a high paying job.

This brought back a major traumatic memory. Baby INFP me's parents were contacted by my school because I would sit alone and read at lunch. My parents gave me the assignment to try to sit with a different group every day at lunch, which went spectacularly badly. Sometimes I'd try to arrange to sit with a group and they'd MOVE elsewhere before I came back with my lunch. Why couldn't I just have some quiet decompression time with a book in the middle of a demanding school day? And yeah, my best friends in school were teachers.

[@zinniaelegans3335]

My kindergarten/preschool teachers told my parents that I needed play therapy because I spent too much time playing by myself 😢

[@kali_tea]

As an INFP here, I was also always on my own in all school years. I was always day dreaming and it was kind of a problem for teachers too.

[@isweetieh]

being an INFP can be so difficult, those kinda "unfair" social things always end up happenings with us. Why? Idk, it just does, and it hurts.

[@sarahberkner]

Sorry that happened to you, I get your parents wanting you to try to be more social but to me personally school was not the best place to make friends anyway. And I don't know why it's so conforming and doesn't allow for individuality. Like, the "class clown" gets in trouble for being funny, the smart kid gets called a teacher's pet or is taught stuff they already know, and people worry about the quiet kid who is just fine.

[@aninfphilosophy]

Holy smokes same for me. My best friends were teachers. And I hated recess because it was loud with all the kids screaming. All I wanted was to be alone and read a book quietly under a tree. But the teacher wouldn't let me have a book so that I'd be encouraged to play with the other kids. It never worked out well. I would just find a place to hide until recess was over.

[@thomasswrisky6734]

As an INTJ, yet another conceptually creative and well executed skit. The part with the INTJ was quite relatable. As a son of a former teacher, I learned early about all the politics between teachers and administrators, union negotiations, strikes, etc, and was even brought along to a few meetings. It didn’t take long for me to notice the teachers own personal biases, as well as a commonality in the messaging/ political leanings of certain teachers, not to mention the re-occurrence of a few specific topics over and over through the years. I learned what the teachers wanted to hear, and used that knowledge to do well in my classes. There were certainly instances in which I challenged perceived consensus about things, and there are a few moments I’m quite proud of, including being the only student to have a dissenting opinion when asked a loaded question about the environment and economics in grade 9 French class. As time went on, I only became more disillusioned with the whole concept of the modern education where I live, coming to see it as an indoctrination tool used by the government (not that the government literally planned that, simply that it happened) to shape the beliefs and values of the future generations, instead of allowing students to explore and decide for themselves what they believe and value. This goes for all levels of education, from elementary school to university.

[@Heliorhodonite]

Can't relate more to a comment so far. Ty for expressing my thoughts.

[@omomo202]

💯 correct. ENFP here and you say it in a way that I can’t. I was the same as you: I listened to everything the teachers and parents said and I was extremely in tune with politics. I also used it to my advantage by saying what they wanted to hear as well! I’m sure you were much more detailed and critical than I was, though. 😅 It HAS helped me be more critical of current trends and the news cycle as I remember historical events and their cultural significance more than the average person.

[@sparklenights5421]

i totally agree, although i usually challenge teachers more and do things my own way, while being incredibly good at arguing against them, either winning or compromising, i never loose, because i use the information of their true work and connection against them showing them how they could logically work better with my ideas. Thank you for expressing your thoughts :)

[@imho2278]

Schools are designed to be agents of socialisation. What else do you expect when 25 or so kids of the same age are taught the same thing at the same time by one person? It starts with sitting 4 yr olds on a mat and making them stay quiet for 10 minutes, and then goes through handwashing, eating lunch at a set time and playing only with kids their own age. At higher levels it indictrinates kids by offering one set text (To kill a mockingbird) but cautions against reading Mein Kampff. After 12 years of this, if the socialisation has succeeded, the child can be clean, quiet, thoughtful and finally able to do calculus.

[@xdlolfam2713]

Indeed.

[@asiyashahama5875]

The INFJ one is so relatable! I remember being so afraid of authority and humiliation as a child that I did disappear for a day or two just to get over a silly criticism or scolding from a teacher. I would constantly worry about how other kids perceived me afterwards. It’s refreshing and really heartwarming to know how far I have come from being a really quiet and weird kid to now fully embracing my layered personality. This was a good one, Kristin! 🎉😅

[@shdow1843]

Yeah bro... Why being infj is so hard 😭

[@eldaralex3067]

Tf ... i just sensed a huge difference in mentality from other kids, both in kindergarden and school and therefore spend most of the time being by my own daydreaming and giving a helping hand when someone needed, but other than that i was inexistent, like a ghost, couldn't wait to return home and contiune the story i had with my action figurine toys XD. Also there wasnt a single conference where the teacher wouldnt not say that i can be amongst the top class if i wanted to but choose to be laid back yet she never could have pressed more on this subject because i was a "matured kid" who never bothered her, except later when i would skip classes in school, not do homework and raise my head when something was way off and given my neutral silent state of being would take everybody by surprise and raised some eyebrows. Furthermore dispite this overshyness i see in others i remember a time when i had to attend a piano lesson over the last class i had. In that day the other kids made my teacher reach her human limits and when i approached her to ask if i can leave an hour earlier, she frowned at me and turn her head. So i grabed my phone and handed over my piano teacher with whom she spoke and eventually let me leave as scheduled XD. I remeber smiling at her through the whole phone call XD. Like: "B*t*h, just because others made your day worse doesn't mean you have to make mine too" Even in college, i dont know how it happpend really, so - i would if not skip classes, i would be there always on time. But somehow was late for a sport class where we had to arrive at a different location, 5 bus station away from the main campus. Imagine myself getting there half an hour late seeing my colleagues waiting in snow for ... for nothing because they expected the intructor to come and begin the class. So i walked to the first human being i imagined was a teacher told who i am and asked for some guidance. Cant really wrap my head around that moment because i remember between my colleagues was the most evident entp, allways bragging, allways being pedantic and ready to disaprove that the sky is blue (methaphorical speaking) just because it happend to be said by anyone other than him :))) i cant stop from laughting right now, allways loveing to hear himself talk, a smart and unconventional guy who also was very sincere, would talk about every taboo subject as if he was prsenting the weather, funniest and one of the smarted guys i've ever met, so i remember him and couldnt understand why he didnt do anything XD, someone so extroverted, :))))) they were all switching their wieght from one foot on the other because of the freezing XD. Was even more wierd because they hardly knew me. Shit, i better send this beore i delete it XD

Well... I will not say anything about my kindergarten, as it was abnormal to say the least, but in most of my school years I was in-between INTJ and ISFJ... but the spelling mistake while writing a poem is so real, as I've done it before, multiple times at that...

Ah, my days of elementary as INFJ/INFP . . . They would talk about how inattentive I was, yet getting high scores in the quizzes (so much so they labelled me as a special child and considered sending me to a school for special children). They would talk how sensitive I was, easily triggered and made to cry with even a simple correction/reproof. They would talk about my socializing problems and my creativity and smartness, and how often I would be asked by my classmates for any homework help. Meanwhile, I would talk about forgetting my elementary days altogether, for shaping me into a cold, emotionless boy who never speaks about his problems and never asking for any help.

[@ballsack7692]

@@Brickwilliams It's most likely because of the fact that they aren't sure about which type they are. They are looking for outside validation to see which type they truly are. What I recommend for them is to look into a reddit post on the description of the Socionics of each type, because it acknowledges the shadow functions, and they feel that they use their shadow functions often, which is the case in Socionics. In Socionics, shadow functions are basically "aware of them", but they don't use them that often, and can be quite good at it.

[@Cybrogue1]

Likewise. 👍 I don’t mind people playing on those stereotypes some for humor, but really if you get to know different people of the same types, you get more nuance in how they manifest their functions differently (sometimes very differently)…and as a result, you actually get more material for your jokes. You don’t just keep repeating the same joke, you come up with something new that people can still relate to and laugh at. Kristin seems to have caught onto this, and it’s made her mbti skits my favorite on KZbin.

Despite the fact that I actually enjoyed reading, in 9th grade, I actually pulled off the ENTJ's maneuver of not reading the assigned books. I despise coming of age novels, and that was pretty much all the school wanted to assign, so by the time I got to the 6th crappy book about "oh, I'm not like other kids and I don't fit in, and someone's going to die by the end of this story in order for me to learn a life lesson about managing my emotions" I just stopped reading them. I didn't do any research either. I'd flip through the chapters right before the pop quiz. I still got Bs on those things. My favorite bit of "literature" that I read in high school was the Count of Monte Cristo about how a betrayed man escapes prison and gets revenge on the people who betrayed him by manipulating them into destroying their own lives.

I agree with the INTJ student ! We are all on a script, most of our behaviors are unconscious and programmed, coincidences don't exist.

Two IRL stories that demonstrate dear kristin's research. I'm an INTP and at 10:53 I was reminded how I was sent to the office for doing my homework ahead of time. I was in honors English and we were assigned a book to read over two weeks and I read it over the weekend. Then when class discussion came up and I was called on to answer a question, I asked for a similar book to read because I enjoyed this one so much. The teacher thought I was acting out not believing I had read the book so I then spoiled the entire book (Orwell, 1984) to the class as well as referencing similar works that the author had mentioned. I was sent to the office for punishment. When I returned the English teacher gave me Melville's "Moby Dick" and I said I read it last summer...we finally settled on "Metamorphosis" by Kafka. 0:33 reminded me of my ESFJ wife. We met in college and I was immediately "adopted" ESFJ-INTP style. We had a fast relationship but I love her and she loves me so we decided to marry. Our dating was 6 months and our engagement was 2 months. (Think what you want, we're still together 23 yrs later) She is Catholic (Spanish Catholic) and I was Protestant at the time. (I was a new Christian, 3 yrs. A convert from atheism) We were married and about a year after I decided to convert to Catholicism. I found out during RCIA that this particular church had a 6 month engagement period for couples. We were only engaged 2 months. I asked her about this and she replied, "Querido, we were engaged after our first kiss I was just waiting for you to catch up." The Priest's reaction when I told him about our error was, "you're married, better that mistake rather than the other. Pilar gave me a different impression."

Oh dear, that gave me a déjà vu. When I was a kid and spent quite a while in hospital, the day I was released the nurses came to us and started praising my behaviour as a patient and how considerate and polite I was with them making everything easier and my parents cried in pride while I awkwardly offered everyone tissues. (ISFJ) About school I don't know, really, as in our school the children's presence is not required in Parent-Teacher conferences, but I never got a complaint thankfully ^-^. But I remember I was also very awkward when I was asked to say something when my teacher praised me in different occasions. Still not over that. I really need to be able to take compliments without becoming a cartoon of awkward expressions. I must say though, all ENFPs I know somehow get the kudos for best hand writing. They are doing way better than me. And the ending rocks!

[@MelanieHooks]

Hysterical re the handwriting. My ISFJ mother had the clearest AND most beautiful cursive script, which she was regularly complimented on. I (her ENFP daughter) also get compliments for mine, but as Mom always said, "Yours is too busy being pretty to be legible."

I am an INTP and I excelled at school by virtue of being too smart for my own good--I was pretty lazy, preferring to fall down encyclopedia rabbit holes and to read sci-fi books. I did all assignments and required reading ahead of time, memorized what I read, and sailed through tests and exams. Then during class since I was usually bored by the lecture and didn't really *need* to pay attention anyway, I would instead read whatever book I was engrossed in at that moment. All through class. Nothing was ever done about it because my grades were perfect. I was...still am...kind of a cocky shit.

But she has a tendency to go on tangents, get easily distracted and can be very chatty- and she needs to slow down in order to access the top grades” I’m in year 13 now and teachers are still saying the exact same thing. Found an old school report the other day that said “Megan's writing is always lively and interesting and she can write at length. She need to improve at organising her ideas before she starts to write as well as reading through erwards as she is inclined to leave out words” I showed it to my English teacher and she found it funny because she said similar to me at the last parents evening.

I am an ENFP. I didn't talk to people that much in school because I didn't go to public school until I moved states and changed cultures. But randomly humming in class by accident happened all the time.

[@julial.r.5383]

As an INTP I was absentminded thinking abstract theories, in an imaginary fiction world, or analyzing everyone around me. I hardly studied but always passed, was bored to death in classes (and so, often distracted), and totally aced the few subjects that I found interesting. My interests were narrow but I went deeeep in them. I dreaded being called to speak out during the class, or oh horror, group presentations (also because I ended up doing most of the gritty work - due to my pleasure of researching, and my perfectionism with the details - just not the planning or organizing… And then I sucked at presenting it, so the others shined instead). And yes I corrected my teachers a few times, when I considered the issue to be important enough to counterbalance my awkwardness at speaking up - and proving my point out loud with the whole class looking (and the teacher’s automatic defensiveness). 😅🫣🫠 I find that most times, people don’t really want to Know - they just want to feel good about themselves (even if they’re saying inaccurate things).

[@unmemorablehero]

While yes I related to the ENFP, I also related to the ones who didn’t do their homework and still had good grades. My Si made homework…impossible lol. So I figured out that as long as I showed up, and aced the tests, I could literally never do my homework and get A’s and B’s. This also evolved in my time spent in school. I figured out that they would teach the same thing throughout the week to really hammer it into your brain, so I would pay attention on Monday, and then sleep/play games on my calculator/daydream/etc for the rest of the week. I think a lot of the teachers didn’t really appreciate me, but I also wasn’t causing any trouble, and my grades were good, so they just let me be.

[@WhiteDeath512]

Same for me regarding homework and tests. Sometimes the opposite would be the case and I'd ace the homework, but fail the tests. The daydreaming took care of the rest. I still have this issue in college unless the material is genuinely interesting to me. -ENFP

[@misfits9294]

DUDE I DID THE SAME THING, except I paid attention in class at all times/days because I like learning. But I never did the homework. I'd ace the tests tho, because I was paying attention, and I understood the concepts. The reason I didn't do the homework was because I saw no point in it if I already understood everything, it was just a waste of my time and giving more work and effort I could be putting into different areas of my life. Work smarter, not harder is my motto, basically.

[@lovetobe6118]

I am an ENFP and I was super passionate about doing well in school. I had been homeschooled until 9th grade, so I was excited to do well. I learned like crazy, but there would be times I would forget a thing or two like not singing randomly in class. My teacher had no clue if I was retarded or not especially with how well I did on tests.

[@sarahberkner]

Omg the HAMILTON REFERENCES! Why do I feel like that was based off your parents evenings. Also Jimmy is relatable because I was a veryhyper kid (and a hyper teen let’s be real) and had this X I had to sit on to keep me in my chair and got bribed with stickers! (Which btw worked). The ENFP is literally exactly how my parents evenings have gone- down to to the parent dynamic (the mum has to be ISTJ I’m sorry) . Also idk how you got wind of the ENFP and the abandonment trauma. I’ve had teachers scream at me, but never had a teacher try to abandon me (I don’t think) . But the “differentiate the difference between fiction and reality” has been said several times, people just don’t get I can do- but why would I want to when the real world can suck! I also think I’ve got better at knowing when to daydream and when it’s not appropriate, which comes with experience and developing S functions- and as a result am much more tuned into reality now. (But I know the daydreams are there for me to slip into when I need to). Oh and the DKCU universe expands with the parents and the kids, which someone slightly unhinged might go back to 16ps meeting the parents and work out which parent is which and which kid they are meeting. But it could be another side to the universe. Or is this if Brad and Becky get back together and get married and have kids! In which case it could be years in the future all stemming from the same parent 🤔

[@edwright4892]

Hi Meg! A* for your comments as always! Love your idea this is set in the future and the parents are actually Brad and Becky! In the ISFJ scene they refer to each other as Gerald and Gertie and right at the start the teacher calls them Mr and Mrs Jones so this has strong witness protection vibes to me. To become a "man with feelings" Brad must have had a ton of counselling so he must have witnessed something pretty bad! 😆

Can confirm that I did something very similar as well. Also INTP. To me, satirical humour seems to flow naturally from the way my mind works.

[@omomo202]

As an ENFP, INTJs put into words what I feel and KNOW but can’t express. Thanks guys!

[@midgetman946]

You've come a long way from where you've started Kristen, I'm impressed.

[@raytherad]

"Or talk about your plans for world domination" The world would be a very dark place without INTJs, love them so much.

[@dambeoshunsalam8033]

You see it’s not necessarily out of selfishness or inflated ego. The world is just inefficient and could use my ideas to get on the right track. - most INTJs

[@raytherad]

@@dambeoshunsalam8033 it absolutely does

[@solarisan_]

I was actually pretty vocal at school. I would find causes to stand behind and support and although it is true that I dislike criticism (because I tend to be self-critical on my own, thank you very much), when and if faced with criticism, I have always known how to keep on fighting and rebeling rather than retreating. Ni and Se always have a more fight on and hands on approach as perceiving functions regardless of where they are placed in the stack.

[@nutalli]

Very relatable. What’s your personality type? (Infj here)

[@absolutelypointlessvideos707]

I was such an obedient child in elementary that my ISFJ mom was delighted when my 5th grade report card noted that I had "caused a disturbance during an assembly." Otherwise my report card for the entirety of school read: Pleasure to have in class. Pleasure to have in class. Pleasure to have in class. Pleasure to have in class. Pleasure to have in class. Pleasure to have in class.

[@deliriumcupcake6412]

Kristin, you're a natural! Many people compliment your mesmerizing acting skills (I mean, there's no way it could be otherwise!), but do we want to talk about how creative you are? Your videos are so funny, clever, and extremely accurate! 😍🥰

[@widewailcorduroy7278]

This comment is every INTP who definitely did not create an underground satire magazine at any school or organization they were a part of. (Get out of my head, Kristin)

[@michyallen]

Just watching your You’re My Type alone was entertaining! It was like watching different literal people! As always, you’re fun and I learn a lot about the different types! Keep rocking it, K!

[@lesil1000]

My sister is an INTJ. One time the teacher was late to class so she decided to teach the class. When he came in she was sitting in his chair with her feet up at the desk. Years later I had the same teacher, and he expected me to be the genius she was but I was always daydreaming in class (INFP).

[@HandleDisliker]

INFJ felt too real! Why do you have to do us like that lol

[@thirstwithoutborders995]

Hey, I wasn't absent from school for random days because of criticism from the teacher. The only reason I liked school was that I could learn and become better at things. I was absent randomly because I was done with peopl-ing, mostly friend drama, where I was always the mediator/defense attorney and pretended to be sick so I could sit in my room and watch Sabrina the Teenage Witch while recuperating. Funny thing was, I still had good grades and was elected class-and school president, even though I didn't nominate myself.

[@gorgonheap9770]

You are brilliant. In every way. Two notes: As someone who has been stabbed in the neck with a pencil, all the pencils being point-up made me twitchy. Ninjas. Don't worry about it. Second, the bit with the scissors was perfect. I usually give variations of, "Meh. Things are always where I need them."

[@alisha2980]

Ohhh today I was thinking about how much I like your videos and when I thought of watching, I remembered that I already watched all of them and now I see that you just posted!! So excited to watch !!!

[@tickital4464]

as an INTP, teachers usually love me because i get really good grades, but my god am i disorganised, and still somehow very few teachers have ever noticed how much of a mess everything i do is, so parents evenings are still always positive

[@yourhighnessshanzay]

I’m an enfp and this is too accurate. I daydream so much and sometimes when I’m reading a book the whole class has moved on and I’m like, “wha..?”

[@Azdaja13]

Oh I wish I knew as a kid that teachers were just soulless peons of the education system... then again, school did eventually teach me that. Granted, I was a more polite child than the typical INTJ stereotype but that was more just my upbringing than anything else. I don't want to talk too much about school though because my school days were dark, but something weird was my grades were actually quite mediocre (because the school system rewards academic bulimia rather than actual intelligence or understanding of the subject matter) but in class, I was seen as the clever one, and I know particular people who had sky high grades were actually envious of me because despite all of it, I knew and could explain the subjects far better than they did. So you had this perverse situation where the "smart kids" would go into exams feeling completely unprepared and nervous then get sky high grades for regurgitating the texts and lesson material verbatim, while I went into exams confident and then got mediocre (not bad, but mediocre) grades because I didn't mention arbitrary things on the exam checklists or didn't remember some of the details. I hated exams but loved project work and presentations (usually I wound up doing everything because if I got put in a group, the rest of the group would just do nothing and I'd be left to do all the work, which tbf was fine because they'd have only got underfoot anyway...) because then I could explain things and actually had some measure of freedom. If I got put in a group and they just didn't let me implement my ideas then I'd just give up and lose all motivation (that also happened quite a bit). Oh and I'd try and make French and German homework more interesting for myself by using my dictionaries to come up with weird and wonderful answers to questions rather than using the stock phrases we were given to use. Completely unnecessary but I needed to amuse myself in those dark days.

[@haydarsarac3565]

That's why it's a stereotype, this is closer to what we actually experience. Grades are arbitrary if you're inside a broken system.

[@wkpopchannel1128]

Love INTP secretly pulling off some harmless pranks that can't legally be traced. (Also, you looked cute in that hairstyle)

Such fantastic comedic writing, timing, and delivery. Quite impressive! I can sit through a professional comedian's 1 hour set and not laugh this much.

[@1houseplant]

As an INFP, idk my teacher didn't say too much, but he didn't have any complaints either. Though I do know I was dying inside simply because I don't know how to respond to praise.

[@XDivineExistenceX]

That „cant relate to that“ in the urmytype ad was WAY TOO convincing to be remotely just acted 😂😂😂

[@LilyGrace1990]

I think ENFP needs to be assessed for ADHD. I too am an ENFP with ADHD and I wasn't very active in class but I definitely zoned out a lot.

[@Meg_intheclouds]

The funny thing is it’s based on one of my suggestions on the Patreon based on one of my own parents evenings- like the mum part especially (like every parents evening without fail she says something like that) - and I did in fact need to be assessed for adhd- did anyone ever assess me? No. I get straight grades, i was a teachers pet, I seem super organised due to an ISTJ mum so as a coping mechanism I devised my own systems early on, I function out of anxiety and a fear of failure. I am also an enneagram 3. And because of that I was dismissed or they decided that I didn’t need to be tested (my mum has told me several times that). Like I’m bubbly, enthusiastic, come across as scattered, quirky and very socially unaware, blurting out and getting very over excited and would not stay in my seat, very easily side tracked and went on so many tangents and still do . But all the messy stuff I hide and have curated this image for myself for social validation where I play a sort of fool while also wanting to prove I am more. Like the idea that I want to be accepted for my most authentic self and want to be that but I am being held back by the fear people won’t love it unless I prove I am lovable? You know? Like the Fe critic comes out

I am an infj and I related more to enfj for sure. I was deeply wounded when I was neglected or criticized, but I never showed it. And yes I liked skipping school bc it was boring and felt very constraining. I preferred staying at home reading books or wandering the empty streets

[@shortydiaries]

lol im an infp and i can say i was really close with the librarian in my old school. i also didnt talk to my classmates very much since i felt like we dont got common topics to talk about. actually, until today in my new school.

[@TiaTam]

Most definitely not an ENTJ, but the ENTJ's attitude is basically how I approached learning in school- I had to make a book presentation for my finals and had 2 weeks to read the entire book (which was randomly assigned to us) amidst other exams, so I just... googled summaries and made my presentation reading less than 2 chapters of the actual book. I got a B, so it was definitely good enough... and the examiners will never know~
