The Simpsons character types

[07490]

o_O Really? I maybe forgetting but I thought Homer despised and was jealous of Ned, while Ned didn't waste much time on him, and mostly interacted (and forgave) out of a christian sense of obligation. So asymmetric relationship.

that's what I said, Ned never hated Homer and always give in to him. But conflict? no, I wouldn't call it conflict like you can say about other other character who does have conflict. If anything their relationship seems like a benefit relationship.

But why would you take interrelationship, and facts like it looks like an asymmetric relationship into so much consideration? especially taken the fact that it is cartoon? a little bit of those is OK, because most people can stereotype, and they can see this kind of people will like these kind of people and so forth. but even in here we know that conflictor gets along well in real life and not as "conflict". so would you think the producer knows?

I didn't mean "clash" like in a fight. I meant differences in values that lead to bad relationships, different ways of looking at things and people misunderstanding one another.

Hey, benefit is also asymmetric, and it could still work.

That happens in most non-quadra relationship anyway.

it's not if it works or not, it is that I am so sure of these typing that I just can't stop myself from preventing the mistyping to go on any further. and if you're only speculating on their types, I suggest you listen to me.

In the context of what I wrote, it's a clash of Fe vs. Fi.

That's not good. If we're both equally sure about opposite things, it doesn't get us anywhere.

I said that because you said "it could work". I get the feeling that you were speculating.

I like the Simpsons. I like how there are many parts to their town, all exhibited throughout, it is like all the town is one big adventurous family. I used to have this interactive Simpson's game for the PC where you explore Springfield.

They have a lot of characters http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...n_The_Simpsons

Whether or not I was, confidence is no arbiter of truth.

Yea I know, But I am not good at explaining things in writing.

Oh shit why have I not posted in this thread yet

Homer: Ne-ENTp?
Marge: Si-ISFp?
Bart: Ti-ENTp (kinda weird though, because apparently Bart's character was supposedly loosely based off of Matt Groening's own childhood)
Lisa: Fi-ENFp
Ned Flanders: ?-INFj
Milhouse: Ti-INTj
Moe: ?-IXTp
Reverend Lovejoy: ?-ESTj?
Mr. Burns: Te-EXTj
Smithers: Ne-INFj
Comic book guy: Ti-ENTp
Herb: Actually ESFp seems plausible from memory, although I wonder if ESTp could work too?
Armin Tamzarian: ?-ESXj
Nelson: Fe/Ti irrational
Hershel Krustofski: Fe-ESFj


lol@Frank Grimes discussion. I could see him as some hyper-neurotic Ti-ISTj, and from what I recall Homer supervised the shit out of him; he seemed to hate Homer a lot more than Homer hated him back.

I feel like somewhere in the 10th season or thereabout the characters stopped being truly dynamic entities and simply became stereotypes of themselves. A lot of what I'm basing my typings on is from what I know of the older seasons, the episodes that aren't awful.

Also I'm not getting the typings for Lisa as beta NF. If you haven't seen Moaning Lisa yet I'd recommend you do because she's Fi out the yin-yang in that episode. It's actually kinda weird though, for being a so-called "delta" show there are hardly any deltas in it hahaha.

[Calvinist777]

Homer (classic era): SEI 7w6 or 6w7
Homer (post-classic era): SEE 7w6
Marge: ESI 9w1
Bart: SLE 7w8
Lisa: I dunno, she's really hard to type. EIE? Nah, >. Delta NF? Seems too confident in use of . ESI? Not likely to have Ne-POLR. 4w3
Abe (Grandpa): LSE 6w5? 9w8?
Flanders: ESE 1w2 perhaps
Mr. Burns: LIE 8w9
Smithers: ESI? 6 or 9 I guess
Moe: SLI 6w5
Skinner: LSI 1w9
Edna: SEE 2w3???
Comic Book Guy: ILE 5w6?
Dr. Hibbert: LIE 3w4
Krusty: SLE 3
Tim Lovejoy: Delta ST
Otto: SEI 9w8
Frank Grimes: LSI 1w9
Willie: SEE??? 6?
Milhouse: IEI 6w7
Barney: SEI 9w8
Duffman: ESE 3w2
Herman: SLI 6w5

Duffman: ESE 3w2

Hahaha.
You're alright Calvinist. You're alright.

Hey, cool. I really thought I'd be the only one who hates the newer seasons. I mean, mayn of the classic episodes were just awesome and I really like the serial, but the new ones are far away from being funny. Other people I asked said they wouldn't see a difference.

With Spongebob happened the same, btw. When I watched episodes from the first season my stomach hurt from laughing, but the newer ones are just annoying.

*list of typing proposals*

Wow, I almost agree with all of your guesses. (I'm not sure about some characters, but you can be right about them.) I only thought ILI would be quite fitting for the Comic Book Guy.

Seriously? Most of the people I've talked to said that they hate the new episodes. Maybe it's an America/rest-of-the-world divide

I don't know. Sometimes I think they don't even know what they are laughing about. In the newer episodes of the Simpsons they're using the same old jokes over and over again. They also combine it with a stupid and uninteresting story and expect that people are laughing about that. (The Simpson's movie is awful, too.) However, there is one other factor which makes the show worse for me: the dubbing. Marge has now an ridiculous voice and everyone sounds totally fake.

You can't really avoid that shows get worse over time, but as a positive example, I think South Park aged well compared to other popular shows. It is still original and authentic in my opinion, just as it used to be.
