Claudio Narango points out that the E7 has two opposite subtypes: idealistic visionary dreamer as well as joking materialistic egoistic narcissist. I think this is wrong: that many extroverted joking narcissistic playful E3 party men/women are wrongly typed as E7 hedonists. Take the case of Faceman from the A Team series (same character is seen as the neighbour of Al Bundy in Married with Children); Faceman is rather lazy; he doesnt want his fashion suit get dirty, he's the ultimate narcissist. Same with Al Bundy's neighbour; also lazy but very narcissistic. Both cases show no signs of innovative visions. I think that the ultimate hallmark of E3 is getting applause and admiration from others; there is one E3 species which is mostly work-a-holic and another which is narcissistic and no worker at all. I would type both Faceman and All's neighbour as E3 now. What do you think? Let me know!
