I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post this link, but I was wondering what you all thought of it. I'm quite certain it is satire and find it amusing :3

It is satire. I found it amusing but to some extent offensive. It is 'typist' because it stereotypes each type and ranks them according to value with the INFPs at the top and INTJs and INTPs on the bottom. An INTJ or INTP could write an article in which these positions are reversed.

Yeah, it's meant to be funny, but FWIW I don't consider it particularity good at what it tries to do, too many of the observations just seem off to me for that.

For example, from the bit on INTJs and INTPs: "They are best left to work on simple tasks that all the other types hate, as they have very high boredom thresholds and can be left to [...] work on assembly lines, without any real personal problems. They enjoy being ordered around and told what to do, and as long as their orders don't involve interacting with other people they are very happy."

Not in my experience.

Hi Box!

Definitely a satire. Not to be taken seriously in any way. Read the NB: (NB The author is an INFP himself, and so this article is guaranteed to be unbiased)
