Help me out here, please. Here is a video of Jack Black. I find him really funny. I'm a fan.
I see the functions Te/Fi (Fi snarl) and Si/Ne (He has the Si scowl.) I am not sure what his lead is. His style of comedy reminds me of comedians that have been typed SiTe. Do you think he is SiTe or a different lead? Anybody disagree with the functions? If it weren't for the scowl, I would say his eyes are more on the intense side - though I didn't notice any obvious zone outs - I was too busy looking at his eyebrows. lol.
Hmm. He has the scowl, but he also has a manic Se stare. I'm prone to say gamma, but it's true that he also reminds SiTe comedians. No real help from me then.

I tend to think SiFe with a lot of Ti... Or FeSi could be possible even. I don't actually think he is snarling, if the face is very full in the cheeks it may look so, but I don't see him actually tensing, and watch where he asks to be allowed to think and closes his eyes, which he does at many other times as well, presumably using Ti. I think the manic eyes are part of an intentional Fe expression, he does it when he is "acting" not by accident.
Yeah, I think you are onto something with the Fe, thewildpapillon. Thanks for pointing that out. And I agree that the crazy eye look is likely part of his act.
Good choice anagrams! I too am drawn to his humor. In fact, I almost posted this thread myself, cause I am interested in what Black might be. I am seeing Ne/Si, but not sure on the judging functions, but I would say he is some form of P lead.
@mimsy - this video is good. I had picked the other video because it was a close view of his face, but this one seems to show that he does do the Se/Ni eye drift thing. Plus, I just read yesterday that the eyes trump the scowl, so even if he does the Si scowl a lot in the first video, Se/Ni eyes win.
I agree with you on the P-lead.
He is clean shaven in this video. He has that "joker" smile that curves up at the tips.
Could he be NiFe? Like Mike on NF Geeks?
(I don't know if this is the best video example. I just picked one and posted it.
I am glad you see that too! I originally thought NiFe for Jack Black, but was persuaded by what everyone else was saying (bad mimsy)... Anyway, that's my stand -- as of right now -- :-)

I can live with NiFe, based on the later videos. You can actually see in the one that is shot at an upward angle that his eyebrows furrow towards the middle but slant upwards to the tips when he scowls, not down like Si Scowls.
