Poll - I'm curious...

This is kind of a spin off from Duff's poll.  I'm curious - and be totally 100% honest. (I won't be offended if you say negative things and I promise not to hold it against you.)

1)  What's one word to describe how I come across on this board?

2)  Do you think I'm the same way IRL?

3)  How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind?

4)  Have I ever said anything to tick you off?  What was it?

5)  Would you like to flame me for this post?

Re: Poll - I'm curious...

  • 1. Rational

    2. Yes, even though I've never met you. I assume you are exactly the same.

    3. I remember how you've stuck up for people, and I remember some of your family stories b/c they are similar to my own.

    4. You've never ticked me off. Even if we don't agree about something, you're diplomatic, not offensive.

    5. Nah.

  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? motherly

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? yes, but also very fun and funny :-)

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? No, nothing specific sticks, but I always get the "mother" vibe....like you are nurturing if that makes sense.

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? Not that I can recall. But if you want to start the topics that a few people on this board think piss me off are: my husbands age and my car :-)

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? Not at all. I think that lots of people wonder what other people think of them-- most would be to scared to admit it.
  •  1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board?  Honest



    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL?  Only met you once, but I got the impression you pull no punches. 


    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind?  The race for 104.1 stands out


    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it?  I don?t think so


    5) Would you like to flame me for this post?  Nope, I don?t think it?s flame worthy at all. 

  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? I think of you as very motherly and the "go to person".  Good head on your sholders, confident and really rational.

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? I have never met you, so I am assuming that you are

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? Nothing really.  But what you do say, always seems to be rational and makes sense.

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? Not that I can think of...

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? Nope.  I would be curious what people thought of me too!
  • 1) nice

    2) yup

    3) I'm obvioulsy comfortable with you, otherwise I wouldn't have invited you to my house.  I think of your girls when you post, and also your family stories.  You are very strong for having been dealt some difficult situations.

    4) I don't think so.  If you did, I wouldn't hold it against you, it's just an opinion. 

    5) no, why would I?
  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? Honest

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? Yup

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind?  No one story sticks out, but I feel I 'know' you pretty well

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? Nope. I don't always agree with what you say but I feel that you respect other's opinions and I respect yours.

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? Nope!
  • 1. Originally I would have said Blunt - now I would say rational. FYI I do not have negative canotations with either word

    2. No clue - I never presume to know what people are like IRL I have done too much research on Social interactions thru mediated communications

    3. I woudl say I don't know you at all - a few post from a year ago come to minf I want to say political or your response to some of the more "touchy" topics

    4. I do belive you have lol probably in one of the post mentioned above. Obviously it didn't bother me that much - everyone even your BF and family saything that piss you off at one time or another

    5. Nahhhhh

  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? Honest!

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? Yes, but I would like to meet you IRL to verify.  We would probably have a good time shopping together.

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? I think of the PBK sale code, which I love you for.

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? No.  Even when I don't agree with you you don't make me mad!

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? Yes, you big jerk. ;)
  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? Well-spoken

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? yes

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? I wouldn't say I "know" you.  Only two things really stick out in my mind, what you went through with your Dad and a missing Christmas wreath.

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? Not that I recall. 

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? Na, not flameworthy at all. 
  • I'm not reading any other replies first. 

    1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board?  Honest

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL?  No

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind?  I think i know of you well enough.  No one story specifically sticks out (but thats fault of my memory)....but i just get the overall thought of "this is a regular poster, is nice, and she is typically honest of her thoughts"

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it?  Yes, i think so.  But honestly don't remember about what.  But i don't hold anything against you.  Its a public forum and your able to say what you want.  And most of the time, i agree with you, just don't have the balls to say it myself.

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post?  Um, no, since i'm answering it honestly.


  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board?

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? Smart

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? I always think of your line from the post about What Do You Call Your In-Laws?...."One day I'm just going to start calling them by there first names just like BAM! there it is...." I thought it was hilarious --- and I also hope to do the same thing one day. I also think of your advice to one nestie who was thinking of selling her house and rent........you just sounded so well informed and financially savvy.

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? Nope

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? No, I just wish I wouldn't get flamed if I reposted the same questions about myself! I think everyone is curious about how they are perceived on here.
  • Whoops

    1. Smart

    2. You are funnier than I expected. In a good way!

  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? hmmm. tough.

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? Not sure, only met you at rent briefly

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? cutie daughters, doesnt mince words, tough stuff with your dad comes to mind

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? honestly, yes. But it was quite awhile ago (over a year ago I think) so I dont really feel like it is worth rehashing - Im over it ;)

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? ummm no why would i?

  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board?  Straightforward.

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL?  Probably, although it's easier to be more straightforward with someone online vs.  sitting across from them.

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind?  You like to shop (and have good taste!).   

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it?  I don't think so.

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post?  Nope :)

  • I was going to reply to this, but then read Duff's answers and they are exactly the same as mine would be.
  • 1) What's one word to describe how I come across on this board? authentic

    2) Do you think I'm the same way IRL? yes - I don't think you're one to just go with the majority if you disagree

    3) How well do you know me - when you see me post, does any one story or something else I said stick out in your mind? I feel like I know you a little bit - since we have the Bristol connection. Your story about your dad sticks out in my mind.

    4) Have I ever said anything to tick you off? What was it? no

    5) Would you like to flame me for this post? no
