How to recognize Alpha Quadra types in new settings

[Gilly]

So how would you spot Alphas in parties?

I don't know if you're talking about party as in a group of people, or party as in, a party thrown for an occasion... so here's what I think for the 2nd "party."
If there's a party at someone's house, the ESFJ's will be the people that will move around to all the different groups since they'll probably know everyone there, If not at the beginning of the party, they will by the end of it. They'd probably have to make sure to say bye to everyone there also. In that same respect, they'd probably be the people that would say, "I can't believe (insert person's name here) left without saying goodbye."
If I truly am esfj and not just a clusterbobble of estj/esfj then this should be about right?

I totally just made up a new word: clusterbobble.

entp's would do this, too. at least i would.

i think you are esfj because of how we click on line. :-)

Yeah, he certainly seems to be a better fit in Alpha than Delta.

As far as my behavior on here is, absolutely. I'm muuuuuch more toned down and serious in real life... Shit, I don't even take Myself seriously here...lol I'm still finding my bearings here in alphaland though. I think I've just taken a certain role here and decided to stay with it since I've also decided to not even try learning anything about socionics.

On another note... I bet an alpha person could write this...I laughed quite a bit when i read it, it was posted on another message board I'm on...lmao.

...doing the most private of private things?

Last night my girlfriend came home earlier than she ever has and caught me, naked, watching porn, and stroking it with a mask and snorkel on.

There's not really much to say at that point. She walked right past me and went into the bedroom. I quickly turned the porn off, put on some pants, and took the mask and snorkel off. Five minuets later she came out of the bedroom and asked how my day was... it was like she didn't just catch me throttling myself with a mask and snorkel on. The rest of the evening went as normal. We had baked chicken and green beans for dinner, and then watched the simpsons.

I don't really don't know what else to say.

That's the funniest thing I've read in a good while.

And hey, Si-ESEs are usually pretty "toned-down" people; not all bubbly and energetic like the Fe-subs. Si-ESEs are more like SEIs than what most people typically think of as the ESE stereotype: usually pretty mellow, good conversationalists but not really chatty, etc. The EJ temperment is still noticeable, but it's not in a crazy manic socialite way like Fe-ESEs.

How about SEIs? Maybe I am just blind to the SEIs around me, but I do not know when to recognize one "in the wild" when I see one.

[Gilly]

Well, Fe-SEIs will usually be pretty bubbly and chatty; moreso than Si-ESEs, for sure. They always won't be the center of attention or life of the party, but when they have something to say or do, they know how to take center stage and handle it well. They usually seem a little hyperactive, especially when they get talking about something they're interested in, their friends, or themselves. If you interrupt them when they talk, they give you a non-threatening, but clearly meaningful (almost inquisitive) stare, but will almost never interrupt. Typical interests are art, fashion, anything that involves design. In one word: bouncy.

Si-SEIs give off this aura of preternatural calm. They smile softly and like to engage people who aren't involved in the present goings-on. They like to chat it up, but aren't really loud or gregarious; they have a kind of "receiving" aura, as though they'll just sit and listen to anyone who wants to talk to them. They like enlisting people for outdoor, health-related, or physical activities (think doing yoga/tai-chi, pick-up games of recreational sports, working out together; one of my best Si-SEI friends always used to get me to go off-roading with him). In one word: phlegmatic.

Are you sure about that difference?

Hmm.

Yeah. I also tend to confuse them with INFj subtypes, especially when quite a number of them are interested in theoretical subjects. Like myself.

[Gilly]

Yeah, my sister is an Ne-EII who could easily be mistaken for an Si-SEI, especially because of her occupation as an artist/artistic consultant and the fact that she's married to an Si-ESE.

how does her marriage to a -ESE make her more likely to seem -SEI?

I love the ENTp goofy/dorky smile and how it conflicts with the ISFj look of ultimate constipation. All the other quadras can suck my dick, alpha is where its at. Delta is too boring and serious and tries too hard to be Ghandi. Alpha is the best. Betas are just wannabe porn stars and Gamma people are just rude and annoying. Not EVERYTHING has to be productive in the real world for it to matter. I just played Final Fantasy 18 hours straight with my ISFp dual best friend. No 'point there' but I never felt better. =)

Also relax guys I'm just having fun with everybody here so don't take anything I say too seriously. =) Goddamnit this place needs more LET'S BRING IT PEOPLE!

Would the opposite of constipation be diarrhea?
And if so, then that is a great metaphor.

So ENTps speak like diarrhea as opposed to ISFjs who are verbally constipated?
Does that make sense?

(I hate bringing threads back from the dead, by the way)

[cracka]

Verbally constipated... i like it.

[eunice]

I like the Ne-ENTps I have met IRL. =) Come to think of it, I like anyone who "speak like diarrhoea" and appreciate that I'm there to listen to them and let them do all the talking. Too bad I seldom meet such people around. =(

I CAN FLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think that was a Fe failure.
