Thomas sanders personality type
Help! I'm stuck in my head!: Sanders Sides’ MBTI

So I’m a Myers-Briggs nerd and heck I don’t even know that much about it I just know the basics but I LOVE it and I tried my hand at typing the Sanders Sides?
So yeah:
Logan/Logic: He was the easiest to type, I mean i could still be wrong but the type is literally called “The Logician” come on. I think Logan is an INTP. INTPs are usually the problem-solvers and they’re quick to correct other people.
He seems more like an Introvert to me, and I’m pretty sure he’s not a Sensing type cause he seems to use his Ne a lot. Of course he’s a Thinking type and not a Feeling one, that was the easiest part to figure out lmao. And at first I almost typed him as an INTJ but I changed my mind cause Ti is definitely his dominant function and while Judgers usually carefully plan things before, Perceivers tend to improvise more and I thought of the rap battle.
He improvised all of that on the spot and it was freaking amazing. He’a a very good improviser so I think he’s more of a Perceiver than a Judger.
Patton/Morality: Initially I thought he was an ENFJ, he’s very much an Extravert and of course he’s a Feeler, he’s literally the heart after all. Then Moving On happened and the Nostalgia room convinced me Patton is a Sensor and not an Intuitive type. Sensors focus on information coming directly from their senses and tend to make decisions based on what has or hasn’t worked in the past, while Intuitives focus more on future possibilities and well… Patton definitely seemed more focused on the past in that video. Fe is definitely is dominant function and since his extraverted function is a judging function, he’s also a Judger and not a Perceiver. So Patton is an ESFJ.
Roman/Creativity: He gave me one hell of a time trying to figure out his dominant function. At first I was SO SURE he was an ESFP, he loves the spotlight, he’s very impulsive, he just generally acts like an ESFP but then I realized something: Like I said, Sensors dwell on the past, Intuitives think of the future. They gather information from their own imagination. And Roman is Creativity himself so it just didn’t make any sense for him to be a Sensor, which means he had to be an ENFP instead and the more I think about it the more it actually fits him. ENFPs are very excitable, creative and usually they’re amitious as heck. Plus if you look at the 16personalities profile it starts with this quote
“It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for – and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing. It doesn’t interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool – for love – for your dreams – for the adventure of being alive.”
and if this doesn’t sound like Roman then I don’t know what does.
Virgil/Anxiety: He was tricky, I was stuck for a while figuring out whether Si or Ni was is dominant function but now, even tho I’m not 100% sure of it, I think he’s an ISFJ. No doubt he’s an Introvert and a Feeler, his auxilary funtion would be Fe, a judging function, so he’d be a Judger. Virgil has a tendency to over-analyze things Thomas did and make them seem worse than they actually are, he dwells on the past. ISFJs also tend to fear change and well, there’s the entire purple hair video. ISFJs try to help those in need and they want to create an orderly environment for themselves and others, and that’s exactly what Virgil is trying to do, he’s just trying to help Thomas in his own way.
Something that’s just very satisfying to me about this whole thing is that Patton and Logan, Heart and Mind, have completely opposite types. That’s so cool.
I’m also pretty sure Thomas himself is an ENFP as well.
Like I said, I just know the basics of this whole thing and I could be wrong about some stuff but I’m just really passionate about it and trying to type them was fun! If anyone has different opinions about it I’d love to hear (or, well, read) them :)

I love Myers-Briggs stuff! While it’s certainly not the be all end all of determining personality, I’m still of the opinion that taking the test multiple times can help you understand yourself better (Even if your results change frequently, as some do, that can still tell you what areas you are more neutral on vs what areas are more handset. ).
These all read really well to me! I especially love how Patton and Logan mirror each other perfectly. <3 (also, any other INFJs in the house? I hardly ever meet any others…)

@quinintheclouds have you seen this, you nerd?

I hadn’t, thanks for tagging me! I’ve actually made a post on this before, so I’ve got thoughts – sorry, this is gonna be a LONG reply – here we go! *cracks knuckles*
While I LOVE/have been studying mbti for years AND love Sanders Sides, I kinda disagree on a couple of these. Roman being a ENFP makes sense to me, which was a confusing conclusion to come to as an ENFP who doesn’t much relate to Roman in many ways, but he’s an ENFP (well, minus the love of learning and analysis we have, among other things, bc he’s merely a facet of one person).
My main point of contention is that Logan is definitely a Te user (xxTJ) and Patton is definitely an Fi user (xxFP). My conclusions for them were ExTJ, leaning towards ENTJ (yeah, I know, an extrovert? I elaborated more on my post but I think he’s an E… not 100% sure though), and ESFP. I’m curious as to why you thought he was a Ti-dom? Te is much more about logic, organization, analysis gathering new knowledge/information from the world and rearranging one’s thoughts and concepts to accept the findings (ofc, not Te-exclusive, but prevalent). I CAN absolutely understand seeing Ne in him during that rap battle and the two tangents he went on (the one in Anxiety’s room and the one about the concepts of good and bad) - those are both VERY Ne+Te things. Other than that, though, I’m not sure. If he’s an ESTJ that’d explain the Ne in a position where it can be used during the rap battle and called upon in times of stress like Virgil’s room. But I’d imagine Te + Ni as the main two functions could mimic Ne at times.
There was an ask about why I felt so strongly that Patton is an Fi user, and I went into DEPTH defending that. People have VERY inaccurate assumptions and ideas about Fi vs Fe, and that post/ask for Patton explains why he is definitely an Fi-user.
“Sensors dwell on the past, Intuitives think of the future” isn’t an accurate statement. Even for an oversimplification. I’m restraining myself from getting too into it right now lol, but just know that this isn’t true at all.
As for Virgil, I landed on ISTJ, but I can see ISFJ as a possibility… I’d have to mull it over a bit more.
((“Something that’s just very satisfying to me about this whole thing is that Patton and Logan, Heart and Mind, have completely opposite types.” Just felt the need to clarify, opposite types aren’t determined by opposite letters.))
Also, @ anyone who types things, (and this is meant with the kindest of intentions!) please don’t think the ”names” of the types like “The Logician” mean anything. They vary from site to site, book to article, etc. 16 Personalities and the like aren’t accurate depictions of mbti, and I just want everyone to learn the Jungian Psychology and not the internet quiz type thing, because it helps us to better understand ourselves and each other, and that can be beautiful <3
@ OP, none of this is meant to be harsh or against you, I promise! You’re interested in two of my favorite things, and that’s awesome, ily!!! This is mainly aimed at everyone because there’s SO much misinformation about all the types - but you’re cool, sorry if any of this came across poorly!! <3
“I’m also pretty sure Thomas himself is an ENFP as well.”THAT we can agree on 100% my friend!!!In fact, that helped me consider the individuals’ types as well! EACH OF THEM REPRESENTS ONE OF THOMAS’ FUNCTIONS!!! And they fit perfectly:
Roman (Creativity): Ne
Patton (Morality): Fi
Logan (Logic): Te
Virgil (Anxiety): Si - disclaimer, very unhealthy Si and/or inferior Si (Thomas’ case) often manifests as anxiety. Healthy Si acts differently.
Anyway, those are my thoughts :) Please dear lord tell me someone actually read this XD

Ok first off thank you for reblogging and don’t worry about sounding “harsh” cause you didn’t! I’m actually glad you said this cause as much as I am interested in MBTI I still have a lot to learn and your answer made me reconsider a lot of stuff! I wrote this a long while ago so I do know some of the things I wrote (especially the Sensors/Intuitives thing) were just plain wrong and I do intend to re-write this (and possibly add Deceit and Sleep) at some point.
But! Anyway! Roman and maybe Virgil are literally the only ones I’m sure of as of now; but now that I know a bit more about the functions and the more I read your answer, the more Logan being a Te user and Patton being a Fi user makes sense to me too actually. “
Though it’s still hard to imagine Logan as an Exrtravert and I was pretty sure about the Ne thing but now I’m questionong that too, I’m not at home rn and my phone’s battery is almost dead but I’ll look into it some more at home and just,,, thank you for this answer, cause you really seem to know more about this than me and MBTI is such a fascinating thing I really wanna learn more about so someone with more knowledge on the subjec giving me their opinion on this and pointing out things I got wrong really means a lot ♥

Well yay, I’m glad!!! Cause I have a tendency to sound way differently than I intend to when I go into Analysis Mode™ :P And trust me, no judgement here. I’ve found that when it comes to MBTI, every time so much as a MONTH passes, you’ll look back and go “WOW I had no clue what I was talking about,” so it’s all good! No need to be embarrassed, I feel you <3
Yeah, Extrovert Logan isn’t a certainty, and I know people aren’t likely to agree considering his whole character trope fitting the archetypal Introvert slot, but A) it’d make his dominant function Te, which is very satisfying, and B) he hasn’t really exhibited behavior that’s struck me as introverted? I realized that the only reason I had previously thought of him as an Introvert was really just the stereotype. I may very well be missing something, but time and again he relishes assuming the in-the-spotlight leadership position (which of course isn’t extrovert-exclusive, but is certainly related, as are the following), thrives off of the attention he gets, seems happiest when in charge, expands and expounds rather than select and narrow down (though he’s functionally capable of both), and I know I’ve written more elsewhere but I can’t recall it right now. I could see Logan as a possible INTJ, but not an ISTJ… I don’t know, he doesn’t act like any INTJ I know personally, but who knows? Side note: I do wonder how much of Thomas’ own Ne affects Logan’s portrayal at times. If he IS an ESTJ, that tertiary Ne would be able to act the way it appears in Logan, and ENTJ might as well bc of the aforementioned Te/Ni pair, but it’s all speculation, after all!
Anyways you’re amazing and this is such a nice interaction!!! I love discussing this sort of thing with people, and it’s helpful because differing takes/opinions force my Ne and Te to analyze every possibility with equal weight so I can more objectively reassess my previous conclusions :D Thanks for being so sweet and all! Hit me up when your battery’s back, I’d love to continue with this!!! (And I’m SUPER intrigued to hear your thoughts on Virgil, since I might be swayed on his type now that you’ve got me contemplating ISFJ in particular).
See you around!! :D
EDIT: OH PS!!! I wanna say YAY and CONGRATS and also ILY for typing Thomas as an ENFP. So many people have typed him as ENFJ (again, bc Fe vs Fi is widely misunderstood lol), so it makes me really happy when I see someone else get it :D I am infinitely certain Thomas is an ENFP, and as an Ne-dom, I can tell you it takes a LOT for me to decide anything for certain. <3
