Early one mornin' while makin' the rounds / I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down

For various reasons, I've been giving some thought recently to how we appear in real life and in our blogs. I identify with several ideologies and affiliations not readily apparent upon meeting me or reading my blog. Due to some recent conversations regarding being visible as a member of such groups or choosing to blend in and affect change from within, I thought it might be interesting to see how people in my life perceive my views. [Brief poll malfunction; if you filled it out earlier, please do so again. Apologies!]

In addition, dangerpudding recently posted a charming poll asking readers to identify her current sweeties. I thought I'd do something similar, just for amusement.

Jewish, but I don't know how serious you are about it so I can't make a call on the Atheist part, so I left that blank (same for anything I was unsure on). Jews and Catholics (especially Jesuit schooled Catholics) seem to make the "best" atheists though. :)

I know a fair amount now, but much of it was a surprise as I found the bits out. I can answer with "my current mental picture of the chalepa_ta_kala, or with my "here's what I thought I knew on each point before you actually told me". Any preference?

skipped the poll

all I need to basically know about you I do

you're good people and you give good hug

simple, no?

Crud. I didn't see the option for Jewish Atheist until after I submitted the poll. Oh well. :)

I'm bummed out that no one's guessing Spencer anymore.

OTOH, I'm delighted that Alex and I both made the list. (Ummm, that is us, right? There are a lot of Jens and Alexes on the planet.)

Okay, that's it. I've been trying to figure this out for about eight months over Twitter and LJ and hints from in-person meetings, and I give up: who is the Grub?

I picked "generic caucasian" because you didn't have a race choice for Jewish. You're obviously not a WASP, which is how I actually would categorize "generic caucasian," despite the geographical inaccuracy of that, but I had previously assumed that it was being Jewish that gave you your complexion.

I don't even know how I made the short list.

[neoliminal.livejournal.com]

Sooooo... I have very little knowledge of you. Just some hobbies and interests that looked cool and some pictures of you being a VicGear head. Consider me as much of a stranger as you're going to find.

I must confess to merely guessing at many of my answers.

[griqkincaid.livejournal.com]

Well I took a stab at the have not met you in person one since it's been so very long and I've only had the pleasure of your company a couple times. I think I got at least a third of those wrong due to a shot in the dark since there are extended periods where I find myself away from LJ and missing several entries... :(

What is poly-fidelity?

Also - do we get the actual answers at some point?
