Tool Time

[UDP]

The show with Tim Allen as "Tim the Tool Man Taylor"

[Joy]

You want us to type the show? I'd say Ne/Si > Ni/Se. Probably irrational.

[tereg]

If you mean the characters...

Isn't Al probably a rational type, like maybe LII?

[Gilly]

Agree with Joy on Ne/Si. LSE works for Tim; he clearly has weak Fi. Al strikes me as SEI. The wife, ethical, extrovert, Si values; ESE>IEE. Neighbor, Delta introvert...EII?

[Joy]

I was thinking Ne dominance for Tim... he's more light and playful than any LSE I've ever known of.

Heh I always chuckle at that show, most people hate it. I like it.

o.o Are you serious? Ever met Si subs?

I'm inclined to agree. Seems Ne ego and keeping a small group of friends. More Fi over Ti.

yes

Jill could be Te dominant. There seem to be rational/irrational conflicts between her and Tim. Al seems to have weak and/or unvalued Se. I'd guess Delta introvert for Wilson.

I thought they were Logic/Ethics (or, rather, Ethics/Lack of ethics )

[Joy]

I definitely get irrationality from him. That's often the source of Jill and Al's irritation with him (even if they can easily see past it and don't let it cause many big problems), at least from my perspective.

But then again, I haven't seen the show in a while. Of all the characters on it, I relate most to Jill I think. And least to Tim. Wilson's somewhere in between (in terms of characters I related to), and Al should grow some balls. Having someone like Tim in my life would feel like an endless babysitting job.

I'm curious about what Diana thinks of their types.

I dunno, I couldn't see ILE for him and he's GOT to have weak Fi. I still doubt that he's irrational.

[Joy]

ILE was my first choice for him a while back, and I still don't understand why it doesn't work. I haven't known many ILE's well though, so I'm pretty to accept that I could be totally off. I really can't see him as a LSE though. If he is indeed LSE, it means I have a lot to learn about the type and I'm more than willing to do so... right now it just doesn't make sense to me though.
