Analyzing the “ENTP growth phases” meme

This also applies to INTP.

Phase 1 — Innocently smart, good kid

This starts in the elementary school. An innocent kid who his on top of his class and doesn’t even have to try to excel. Gets called a nerd a lot, even tho he never had to study like the others.

Phase 2 — Class clown, comedian

Continuing to high school, the kid never learned how to learn. But he gets still bored with the school and is able to go through it with relative ease. If he actually tried he would be on top, but sees it is not worth it. He just hit puberty, so he is literally overflowing with energy and has to release it somehow. Humor and storytelling seem to make people attracted to him, so he uses it to elevate his status.

Phase 3 — Rebel, departed

Leaves to study college. In some cases adapts some kind of an evil project because he has under-developed moral code. In case of an IT person it’s gonna be most likely hacking. He uses his hacking skills to make money online so he is able to support himself financially.

Phase 4 — Party animal, addict

In college he starts going to parties. He starts drinking and taking a lot of drugs. Drugs also help…
