The Cup and the Dish™

☈ Imagine the image is of a cup and dish, which are cleaned on the outside for the sake of appearance, but the inside remains filthy with impurities such as greed and evil. Think also of the wolf in sheep's clothing.
Here are nine signs that someone is actually not a good person, even if they seem nice on the surface. Do not judge a book by its cover nor a sausage by its skin. You have been warned!

☈ 1. Only show kindness when it benefits them. A narcissistic trait. They are all smiles and generosity when the spotlight is on them or when there is something in it for them. But, behind closed doors, they are cold, defensive, dismissive and dominant. They show no empathy and are indifferent to others' feelings. They belittle others' achievements. They falsely embellish their own.

☈ 2. Make passive-aggressive comments that are disguised as jokes. Are pretending to be good but cloak it in sarcasm or humour to avoid accountability.

☈ 3. Never take responsibility. They break promises, deflect or blame. Even when it is clear they made a mistake, they will twist the story, blame someone else or claim others are overreacting. These people are also often great at dodging accountability while still appearing reasonable. This is 'high-functioning blame' where responsibility is avoided through clever language, subtle guilt-tripping or emotional withdrawal. It is manipulative but hard to pin down. If someone seems endlessly blameless, yet chaos follows them wherever they go, this is the one who avoids responsibility and is the 'victim'.

☈ 4. Nice to your face but gossip behind your back. Badmouths or criticises others in private but publicly praises; maybe it is about you. This is duplicity that shows a lack of moral integrity. Gossipers are often seeking control or social leverage; but not connection.

☈ 5. Weaponize guilt to get what they want. This is covert manipulation by guilt-tripping from someone who seems caring and makes the other person feel like the bad guy for simply setting boundaries by the use of guilt and obligation to control others while still appearing kind and misunderstood. This person is not truly kind at heart.

☈ 6. Moral grandstanding by seeking praise for basic decency. They harp on about all the 'nice' things that they have done to obtain for recognition for what is actually the bare minimum to try to boost their status or ego. Show no remorse and never compromise. They can dish it out but cannot take it.

☈ 7. Having someone around you with negative thought patterns is a surefire way to bring you down, too. What if they hear just what they want to hear, not what was said? Not what was true, not the facts and not what was real. And then it is on TikTok.

☈ 8. Check if gut instinct feels off, even if it cannot be explained. Intuition is a powerful tool. If you consistently feel drained, anxious or uneasy around someone, pay attention. Even if they seem nice. Even if everyone else likes them. They are toxic.

☈ 9. Nice does not equal good. Nice can be surface-level, strategic and empty. Goodness is built on empathy, consistency and integrity even when no one is watching.

Manipulation Manoeuvres™

☈ 1. Love Bombing. At the start of a toxic relationship, the narc. bombards you with too much attention, flattery and affection to overwhelm you. It is cloud nine to be exact, but is to emotionally hook and hijack you.

☈ 2. Gaslighting. They lie, deny, distort facts and downplay your feelings to question your memory, perception and even sanity. This sucks self-trust away slowly.

☈ 3. Justification & Rationalization. Whatever they do cruel words, broken promises, and inappropriate behaviour - there is always an excuse for it. They twist their behaviour to make themselves to look innocent and you to look crazy.

☈ 4. Crazy-Making Conversations. They will say or do something and then later deny they did it. This makes you bewildered, question your own sanity and emotionally exhausted trying to clear contradictions.

☈ 5. Guilt Tripping. The narc. turns the script around and becomes the victim while making you feel guilty for their own negative behaviour. They hijack your empathy and compassion to get back in control.

☈ 6. Toxic Shame. They shame you with feelings of defectiveness and smallness. By inducing insecurity in you, they shift attention away from their own faults.

☈ 7. Domination & Control. With your looks, money, choices or friendships, narcs seek to control every stage of your life.

☈ 8. Triangulation and Conflicts of Loyalty. They bring third parties (flying monkies) in and start gossiping or forming alliances against you. This alienates you and destroys your credibility.

☈ 9. Emotional Blackmail. They offer you love, approval or rewards provided you play by their rules. They aim to have you serving for their approval.

☈ 10. Passive Aggression. With the silent treatment, sarcasm, backhanded compliments or rolling their eyes, they manipulate while acting dumb, so that you will doubt yourself.

☈ 11. Deliberate Sabotage. They set you up to fail either at work, in relationships or in personal aspirations. This is so they can belittle or discredit you.

☈ 12. Lying. From overt lying to omission lies, lying is the rule. Narcs inform you of what you need to hear for them to remain in control and protect their false ego.

☈ 13. Threats. These are often psychological threats, rather than physical ones. They include threats of exclusion, abandonment or loss. They use your desire to belong to hold you in line.

Liars Questions™

FIVE Guaranteed questions that a liar will ask and how to deflect them. Tell all your friends about these and they will be LiarPickers™ for life, thanks to us.

☈ 1. "Why would I ever do that?" This is their deflection tactic.
Your response: "I do not know why; that is why I am asking you."

☈ 2. "Who told you that?" This is their triangulation tactic. They want to find out who - do not explain or tell.
Your response: "That does not matter; it is whether it is the truth or not."

☈ 3. "You do not trust me?" This is their sense of superiority / entitlement tactic.
Your response: "I'm not saying that I do not trust you. I am simply asking you a question."

☈ 4. "Are you really going to get mad about this? You are overreacting! It's not that big of a deal." This is their gaslighting tactic.
Your response: It this is not that big of a deal, why didn't you tell me the truth?"

☈ 5. "What are you trying to say? What are you accusing me of?" This is their control tactic plus avoidance of facts.
Your response: "I am not accusing you of anything. I am asking you a question and I would like a clear and factual answer, please."

1. Director - ESTJ

☈ I can become domineering and overbearing. I try to control those around me and micromanage every aspect of their lives. I am authoritarian and am overly controlling or rigid in my expectations. I am dismissive of emotions and I prioritize efficiency over empathy. Additionally, I may become inflexible and resistant to change or to accept advice. Because I value stability so highly, anything that disrupts it can be difficult for me to deal with.

☈ I, the Executive, have only the my way strategy and frequently use force to get others to help execute my plan. I am in the bottom quadrant for strategic thinking - useless at it.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not so fickle. I definitely believe that my commitments are important and I will do whatever it takes to follow through with them.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others to do more.

☈ I secretly think that everyone around me is an incompetent monkey that was birthed with the sole purpose of annoying me. Like Michelle Obama might think. I am loathed as I do not chill out. Others believe that world will be fine without me!

☈ Ranks 15/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

2. Developer - ENTJ

☈ I can become domineering, manipulative, a bully and come off as overly controlling or aggressive. I am impatient and and am intolerant of inefficiency and slow progress.

I may also become a workaholic who neglects my own physical and emotional needs in favour of meeting goals.

☈ I, the Commander, think in long-term creating strategies to achiebe mu goals (top quadrant), so I have trouble handling day-to-day operations.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge your boldness and insight.

☈ I am constantly afraid of being in a situation where I cannot sweet-talk or negotiate my way out of a situation. Like George Clooney might be afraid. I am loathed as I am more perfect than the Enhancer. Others believe that I would not want my family killed in front of me, please!

☈ Ranks 11/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

3. Results - ESTP

☈ I am impulsive and act without thinking, leading to risky behaviour I have a disregard for rules making me seen as rebellious or irresponsible plus easily becoming impulsive and reckless. I may focus so much on excitement and activity that I lose track of my responsibilities or the consequences of my actions. When operating at this level, I fail to keep commitments or meet deadlines and come up with excuses instead of taking responsibility.

☈ I, the Entrepreneur, am spontaneous and can behave on a whim which get me into both trouble and danger. I am in the bottom quadrant for strategic thinking - useless at it.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am fickle. I can have a hard time following through with some promises as I become distracted so easily.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others to embrace adventure, to face their fears and to unshackle themselves from distractions and feeble excuses.

☈ I am the most likely to die young or to take unnecessary risks just to spice up my life. Like Stockton Rush did. I am just loathed for this. Others believe that I am not as cool as I think I am!

☈ Ranks 12/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

4. Inspirational - ENTP

☈ I am argumentative and provoke others for the sake of debate, leading to conflict. I have difficulty with routine and resist structure and become easily bored. I may not mature or grow as an individual. I can become manipulative, self-centered, sneaky and insincere. I take pleasure in deconstructing other people's ideas just to prove that I am smarter, which is often not the case.

☈ I, the Debater, hate being stuck in a routine and am always looking for new experiences, people and places. I rank in the second quadrant for strategic thinking by brainstorming and adapting strategies but lack follow-through.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am fickle. While I value my promises, I sometimes my mind can become distracted and I struggle to follow through with certain things.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others to face the void of the unknown and see nothing but possibilities which frightens people.

☈ The larger or more vehement a response that I can get from others for my far-fetched ideas and debates, the more accomplished I feel. Like Robert Downer, Jr. might want. I am just loathed for being 'funny'. Others believe that I should sometimes take a step back to avoid being annoying for this!

☈ Ranks 10/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

5. Persuader - ENFJ

☈ I become over-involved and take on too much responsibility for others’ feelings and actions. I suffer from burnout as I neglect my own needs while caring for others. I can become extremely focused on other people's problems. I can become codependent, a liar (e.g. deny the emission of their own odour of deviance), an enabler or a rescuer. I may try to control and interfere with those around me in an attempt to keep the peace.

☈ I, the Protagonist, love to lead others but I may not always be able to do so. I am in the second quadrent for strategic thinking that aligns with team goals and motivation as I understand group dynamics.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not fickle. I value the importance of promises and I believe in doing everything taht I can to uphold my commitments.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by emotionally X-raying them which causes a scary experience for those who want to stay hidden.

☈ I act caring and noble but I only do that to feed my own narcissistic impressions of myself. Like Oprah Winfrey might carry on. I am just loathed for not making time for myself. Others believe that I do not owe people anything!

☈ Ranks 14/16 for being a vegan or similar. This is a surprise to us. Vegans expect everyone else to think that they are marvellous. This pattern is an SJW. They enjoy educating and motivating others to adopt sustainable lifestyles and are likely to view veganism as part of a broader mission to create a kinder world. They are strong advocates who inspire change through their passion and leadership. Beware of the Wokester. You have been warned.

6. Appraiser - ESFJ

☈ I need approval and I am overly concerned with others’ opinions. I have difficulty with changes and struggle to adapt to new situations. I can become clingy and needy. I may have difficulty being alone or handling rejection. Additionally, I may become overly involved in other people's lives and problems. Because my values are so important to me, I can become inflexible and judgmental when someone strays from my idea of what is appropriate or right (such as a change of someone's sexual orientation).

☈ I, the Consul, feel best when I have strong relationships with others. I am in the third quadrant for strategic thinking but that is limited to more immediate social contexts.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not fickle. I definitely believe that my commitments are important and I will do whatever it takes to follow through with them.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by understanding what people enjoy and perceive the tiny details that influence them. Some find this perceptiveness intimidating.

☈ I care so much about my public appearance that I would never uphold a controversial belief and would not think twice to cut off someone from my life who has an infamous identity. Like Whitney Houston might care. I am just loathed my hypocrisy. Others believe that I can change my tone of voice and facial expression very quickly!

☈ Ranks 13/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

☈ I have a totally scattered focus and have difficulty following through on tasks or projects. I never do. I am overly idealistic and I become frustrated when my ideas are not realized. I expose my dark side when my need for novelty and stimulation is not met. When I am bored, anxious or feeling hemmed in, I can become restless, scattered and impatient.

☈ I, the Campaigner, am supportive of the people I care about and they expect the same in return. But I get peeved if there is no reciprocated support. I rank in the top four for strategic thinking by thinking outside the box and developing innovative strategies but I am unreliable.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am fickle. I believe that promises are important but I can become distracted and regularly fall short.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by questioning the traditions and societal norms in which others find comfort.

☈ I come across as extremely friendly but I will leave you as soon as you stop providing me with mental stimulation. Like Robin Williams might have come across. I am just loathed for being 100% ideas. Others believe that I just never get sh1t done!

☈ Ranks 9/16 for being a vegan or similar. Seems a bit low to us. The SJW. Motivated by activism and a desire for global change. Drawn to ethical and sustainable food choices and may experiment with different plant-based diets over time. Beware of the Wokester. You have been warned.

I can become reckless and irresponsible. I may engage in risky behaviour or make impulsive decisions without thinking about the consequences. Rather than being empathetic and helpful, I can become self-centered and manipulative.

☈ I thrive when able to collaborate with others, but having to work alone may pose a challenge. I am in the third quadrant for strategic thinking but actually struggle with strategy ans the present moment is far more important.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am fickle. Keeping my promises often depends on what the actual promise is and how important it is to me.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others to step outside of their comfort zone and get into the real business of living life.

☈ I am too self-absorbed to the point where I would even publicly humiliate myself to garner even a micro shred of attention from others. Like Will Smith might be self-absorbed. I am just loathed for not taking time to scan people. Others believe that I will end up in bad relationships, accordingly!

☈ Ranks 16/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

9. Specialist - ISFP

☈ I am indecisive and I struggle to make decisions due to my desire for harmony. I am impactical and I can overlook important details in favour of aesthetic or emotional considerations.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others as others are not quite sure what to expect from me.

☈ Ranks 7/16 for being a vegan or similar. Need to be careful here. The quiet vegan. Motivated by personal ethics and aesthetic appreciation for nature. Enjoys exploring plant-based culinary creativity and eco-friendly lifestyle. Likely to adopt veganism quietly rather than push it on others.

10. Investigator- INFJ

☈ I like things perfect and I am overly idealistic and critical of myself and others. I am super private and I struggle to open up, making it hard for others to connect. I can become withdrawn and out of touch with the world around me. Rather than putting my insights to good use, I tend to isolate myself and become lost in my own private world. In this state, I can lose touch with reality and live in my head to the detriment of my relationships and goals.

☈ I, the Advocate, am always looking for meaning in life. I am in the second quadrent for strategic thinking and can strategise effectively for interpersonal relationships and causes as I understand human dynamics.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not fickle. I certainly will not make a promise that I do not intend to keep.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others because there is a sense that, sooner or later, I will be the audience for some of their joys, fears and private life stories.

☈ If I ever want to and at any time, I can mentally cripple anybody whom I know well. Like Martin Luther King Jr. might have wanted. I am just loathed for not taking more action. Others believe that I need to bring my gifts to the world and that failing is ok as long as I fail forward!

☈ Ranks 4/16 for being a vegan or similar. The SJW. Motivated by ethical and humanitarian reasons. Likely to research sustainability and health benefits. Committed to long-term lifestyle changes rather than temporary diets. Beware of the Wokester. You have been warned.

☈ I am overly idealistic and I become disillusioned when reality does not meet my ideals. I do not like criticism and I take feedback very personally. I can become disillusioned or stuck in my ways. I may withdraw from the world and become isolated or I may act out in destructive ways. My idealism can turn into cynicism and my values may become even more inflexible than usual.

☈ I, the Mediator, have a very strong sense of personal values and will get very upset and defensive if these are challenged. Surprisingly, I am in the top quadrant for strategic thinking identifying the broader implications of my ideals. But I take no action.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not fickle. I definitely believe that making promises means people should do everything to uphold them.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others as I observe with intense empathy and awareness which can be off-putting because, beneath my quiet demeanour, it is clear that I am perceptive of intentions and authenticity levels.

☈ I come across as childlike and cute until you wrong me and then you will see me wise up and mature within a matter of seconds. Like Johnny Depp might come across. I am just loathed for coming across as being in La La Land. Others believe that I need to express my emotions a bit more. If that is too difficult, I should try my best to let others know how I feel!

☈ Ranks 1/16 for being a vegan or similar. The SJW. Watch out for this pest. Drawn to veganism due to empathy and peace-seeking nature. Values emotional connection to animals and the environment.

During these times I appear as more critical, aloof and sarcastic.

☈ I, the Virtuso, have a very logical way of approaching problems and have a hard time dealing with situations that do not seem to add up. I am in the bottom quadrant for strategic thinking - useless at it.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am fickle. I can make promises with every intention of keeping them but I do not always think that far into the future.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by paying attention in a world full of distractions and speaking truths that other people are far too afraid to reveal.

☈ I have too much suppressed emotion which usually comes out in the most freakiest of sexual acts with my intimate partner primary source. Like Clint Eastwood might act. I am just loathed for not smiling. Others believe that I need to just smile just for once!

☈ Ranks 8/16 for being a vegan or similar. No worries there.

13. Practitioner - ISFJ

☈ I avoid conflict and I suppress my own needs to keep peace, leading to resentment. I am overly self-sacrificing and I neglect my own well-being for the sake of others.

Additionally, I may struggle with making decisions, second-guessing myself at every turn.

☈ I, the Defender, am all about making people happy and keeping the peace. I am in the third quadrant for strategic thinking but actually focus on the status quo as I am rusted on to the past.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not fickle. I definitely believe that promises are important, especially when it comes to what I commit to with my loved ones.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others as my actions can make individuals aware of their own self-seeking ways which may be scary for some.

☈ I hold grudges for my whole miserable life. Like Gwyneth Paltrow might hold. I am just loathed for being weak as p1ss. Others believe that I lack courage if not supported by close ones!

☈ Ranks 5/16 for being a vegan or similar. Seems high to us but no worries there.

14. Objective Thinker - ISTJ

☈ I am rigid and I am inflexible and resistant to change or to accept advice. I am overly critical and focus too much on details and rules, leading to harsh judgments of others. I can become inflexible and stubborn. I may be resistant to change and quick to judge others who do not meet my very high standards. Additionally, I may struggle with fear of anything new or different, withdrawing from others and getting stuck in a rut.

☈ I, the Logistician, am very organized but this could almost be to a fault; especially if you mess with my system. I am in the bottom quadrant for strategic thinking - useless at it.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am not fickle. I value my commitments and take them extremely seriously and so any promises that I make are going to have follow through.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by making it very clear that I cannot stand it when people make excuses for bad behaviour or complain about the hand that they have been dealt without taking action. My serious, formal and hard-working demeanour can seem intimidating to the more scattered and fact free types.

☈ I wish that I could just say "fcuk it" to my 9 to 5 job but I cannot do that because far too many people depend on me. Like Denzel Washington might wish. I am just loathed for being boring on occasions. Others believe that the word 'boring' was invented by an Inspirational just for me!

☈ Ranks 6/16 for being a vegan or similar. Seems high to us but no worries there.

15. Perfectionist - INTP

☈ I over analyse things and I become stuck in my thoughts and miss practical action. I am terrible in social settings and I can struggle with interpersonal relationships, including being a parent. I can become super obsessed with theoretical problems that have no practical application whatsoever. I may withdraw from the world and become lost in my own thoughts. I may also become critical, condescending and unproductive.

☈ I, the Logican, am extremely poor with social interaction and with anything mechanical. I am in the second quadrant for strategic thinking but it is all theoretical, has strategic frameworks but it probably will never be implemented.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am sometimes fickle. I believe that promises are important but I can sometimes struggle to keep smaller ones.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by knowing that my cool and detached demeanour can be intimidating to people who want to be able to easily 'read' me. Thise people are advised to study this site.

☈ I have a vast expanse of knowledge on my interests stored in my head but, more often than not, this just remains collecting dust and is never applied in real life situations. Like Albert Einstein might have stored. I am just loathed for my lack of social skills. Others believe that I need to avoid spending so much time explaining why someone is wrong when interacting with others!

☈ Ranks 3/16 for being a vegan or similar. More on the lines of being nutrition conscious than a crusader.

16. Enhancer - INTJ

☈ I have arrogance and come off as condescending due to my confidence in my ideas. I have emotional detachment and do not understand or engage with emotions. I can become aloof and abrupt, withdrawing from others. I also tend to become stubborn and unmovable, overlooking facts or stupid opionions that do not align with my intuitive vision.

☈ As the Fickle Mistress™, I am the least fickle. I believe that any kind of commitment is something that should be held as important which includes making promises to people.

☈ As the individual who steals energy by force - Intimidator™, I challenge others by my intense and perceptive nature that tends to make people feel disarmed and exposed. I have an intense focus and directness that has no patience for other people's comfort together with absolutely no fear of pointing out flaws and inconvenient truths. Some people do not want to have their plans or ideas de-bunked or altered in any way. Get used to it, baby.

☈ I revel in the idea that everyone thinks highly of me for my intelligence and my cold, rational mind. However, I secretly crave that one person with whom I can have a real emotional connection. Like Mark Zuckerberg might revel. I am just loathed for being perfect. Others believe that I do not want anyone to kill me because of my skills!

☈ Ranks 2/16 for being a vegan or similar. Motivated by logical reasoning and long-term sustainability. Likely to research nutrition, climate impact and efficiency before committing to the bulltish. Prefer facts over emotion when discussing vegan lifestyles. Treat with care. You have been warned.
