ENTP Care and Handling User Guide and Manual
This manual is part of a series brilliantly thought up by @intpboard
Congratulations! Youâve come into possession of a rare and often exhausting ENTP unit! Now that you have your very own ENTP here are a few helpful tips and tricks to maximize the fun on their maelstrom ofâŠ. stuffâŠ..
Your ENTP comes with:
Four everyday outfits
One extra snazzy suit for special occasions
One mobile device for research and communication purposes
One laptop for next-level research and communication
One gaming console and accessories
Five complex strategy games
Software
Your ENTP comes preprogrammed with the following traits:
Ne: Your ENTP can generate 45,673 ideas per minute, change subjects at a rate that will make you dizzy, and is always interested in anything and everything. Loves to make comparisons or analogies that make no sense but they will insist it works perfectly. Â
Ti: Your ENTP unit will want to analyze and understand ALL THE THINGS. If interested, will demand as many details as possible. They may process by arguing to see all sides of a situation or idea. Favorite questions are why? And what do you mean?
Fe: Your ENTP has the uncanny ability to pick up on otherâs emotions, and will occasionally push to see just how far they can go socially. Low-key cares about people and their opinions and doesnât really like conflict among friends or loved ones (but good luck getting them to admit it).
Si: As this is their lowest function, your ENTP unit will struggle to keep track of things and lose their keys frequently. Also, makes them prone to buck tradition in favor of doing something novel, but may have strong attachments to certain memories or people.
Getting Started
Place your ENTP in front of an open computer with the internet browser open.
Tell them that they canât accomplish something.
Show them your favorite meme.
Challenge them to beat you at your favorite strategy game.
If your ENTP unit has not booted up yet, bring 2-3 friends to talk about their nerdy interests or favorite TV shows.
Modes
Eccentric Scientist Mode (default): Your ENTP will get very excited by whatever random idea or talent or skill happens to catch their eye and obsessively research it on the internet for a good 2-3 days. Then they will dedicate their life (and a considerable financial investment) to master this project. Within two weeks it will be added to the clutter of abandoned or âIn progressâ projects in favor of something new.
Tony Stark (default): Your ENTP will fire up their impressive mental capacities to whirr through countless ideas and possibilities to find the best possible solution for nearly any situation. Be forewarned; just because an idea makes sense to them and they are convinced that itâs amazing, doesnât mean itâs actually foolproof.
Manipulative Bastard: When your ENTP brings their tertiary Fe out to play they can be manipulative little bastards.They are scarily perceptive of what others are feeling and thinking. On the innocent side, theyâre sassing you back within hours of meeting you. On the devious side, they know just how to pull your strings to get what they want.
Detached Robot: Activated when your unit is angry, stressed, or sad. If your ENTP unit refuses to âtalk about it,â complains bitterly that life always sucks, or removes themselves from society to bury in a project, then things are BAD. Resist the urge to push ENTP to open up about it or fix their problems for them. Chances are your unit has already been overthinking the situation and needs a mental escape. To restore to default mode: keep them company and try to redirect their attention to a favorite project or interest. Â
Relationships with Other Units
NF: Your ENTP unit will often appreciate the depth and understanding of the NFJâs and enjoys the random and giggly fun that comes with the NFPs. Caution is advised, however, as NFâs care quite a bit about their feelings and opinions, which your ENTP may find to be boring or muddled.
NT: Â Relationships with NT types can go one of two ways for your ENTP:. They will either be in mutual delight over how logical and similar the NTâs brain is or your ENTP will reject the NT as useless, arrogant, and not worth tolerating. They can either end up as an awesome power duo or a cold rivalry.
SJ: Your ENTP will most likely view SJs as useful tools to uphold society, but not good for much else. Your unit will tend to be aggravated by their reliance on tradition or repetition but could stand to learn a thing or two about order and stability.
SP: This combination is double trouble. Your ENTP secretly admires the SP mastery of their physical environment and will often attempt feats that are beyond their abilities when around SP types, especially XSTP.  Generally, they get along well but donât leave your unit unsupervised with a group of SPs.
Feeding
Your ENTP will forget to eat if not reminded. When left to their own devices, will often skip meals and then wonder later why they are dizzy, grouchy, or exhausted. Feed regularly to ensure they maintain a balanced diet and peak mental efficiency.
Grooming
Your ENTP will often put effort into picking out outfits and combinations, only to throw on whatever works for that day and cover the rest with charisma. Remind your ENTP to brush their teeth, shower, and exercise, as they often forget to do so for periods of 2-3 days.
Sleeping
Your ENTP generally views sleep as a waste of time and do so only when absolutely necessary. Â The preferred sleeping pattern is to stay up through the night and catch up by taking naps throughout the day. ENTP will stubbornly insist that this works (it doesnât). Send them to bed anyway.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do ENTPs like talking with people, even those they arenât particularly fond of? What do they find in that?
Your ENTPâs Tertiary Fe enjoys watching people react to things, especially things the ENTP causes. They derive a certain smug pleasure from watching people react predictably (Ti) to purposely offensive, crazy, or outlandish actions or claims. On a less sinister note, your ENTP most likely views pretty much everyone in the world as a potential friend or resource, so they are more than happy to connect and see what happens.
My ENTP wonât shut up about season 6 of Battleframe Nebula. What do I do?
Your ENTP unit is very excited about their newly discovered interest and likely is one of the most knowledgeable persons in existence on the subject. Ask two or three generic questions about their new interest, such as what do you like about [insert name of new interest]? Or ask them to explain it. Above all, do not panic: within two weeks they will have forgotten about Battleframe Nebula.
My ENTP has decided that organizing or planning things is a waste of time. How do I fix it??
Your ENTP unit has most likely decided that things will work just fine if they go with the flow. Your unit has a preference for keeping their calendar in their head, which is subject to constant change. Point out to your unit that a keeping a written schedule helps them see where they are budgeting their time and helps others know when the ENTP will be available for socializing.
this is a personal attack but also please take care of me like this
