can you predict the answers
I love predictability, honestly. I don't know.

"When you see an evil act you have to stop it with your hand.
If you can't, then at least speak out against it with your tongue.
If you can't, then at least you have to hate it with all your heart.
And this is the weakest of faith."
I think it is likely a rational thing, to prefer predictability. It's brings a sense of stability and comfort, but I can understand how this would be stifling to irrationals.
On a scale of types, from most predictable to least, I'd say Ij>Ej>Ip>Ep

Depends on what you mean by "predictable." My natural reaction to the word is to think of something akin to "boring," which I take to refer mostly to Delta introverts, perhaps Gamma introverts for the most part as well (at least the j subs), and also LIIs to an extent (although they certainly have many redeeming qualities). However, predictable as in reliable makes me think, obviously, of LSIs, as well as SLEs and some SEEs. I'm sure it applies to other types, but those are the most so in my personal experience.
But, for a certainty, back then,
We loved so many, yet hated so much,
We hurt others and were hurt ourselves...
Yet even then, we ran like the wind,
Whilst our laughter echoed,
Under cerulean skies...

I find people who easily stereotype others predictable.

predictable answer. :wink:

What's the point in responding to predictable answers. Isn't that taking a predictable path. And when everything is predictable where is the sense of new?
I value reliability. If someone says they'll be somewhere, they will be, etc. I sometimes like being surprised though, so predicting everything someone will do isn't always fun.
Though I think if people are very hard to predict/spontaneous, you can sometimes predict that and not be surprised by it.

Predictable: INTj, ESFj, ESFp, ESTj, ENTj, ISFj, INFj, ISTp, ISTj, ESTp
Unpredictable: INTp, ENTp, ENFp, ENFj, INFp
I appreciate predictability when I'm busy and find it boring when I'm bored.
Most things are boring when you're bored.

Hmm...
Your supervisee might be predictable.
Also your identical.
The end is nigh
I think IJ's and xSxj's are the predictable types. I like it in the case of IJ's and even more so in the case of Se creatives.
I think that list makes sense. I prefer predictability in dating for sure. I offer enough unpredictability for the both of us.

Why ENFj? It breaks the pattern!

*shrug* I just don't bother trying to predict them. Otherwise, they might be. I haven't been around one often since second grade.Why ENFj? It breaks the pattern!
