Jay, I don't know – I think you are the real King of the Internet.

That was actually pretty interesting. It's hard to do because some of the words sound pretty harsh and everyone wants to qualify the degree to which they think you are some of the "bad" words.

And everyone wants to be nice all the time.

I'm probably going to do this too. I won't get nearly as many responses as you did though.

Heather, I guess I'm just a bastard, then, because I can still see the faults and negative qualities of even my bestest friends. Turnbaby, yeah, some of them are obviously random, which is okay. Scout's Honor, now you're just a dirty, guilty, mean, judgy, bitchy Republican. Mari, that's what I think, too. There's always some judging going on. Poppy, I don't get it. Kris, good point. A bitch is a good, powerful thing, in my opinion.

I don't understand the positive/negative words. It's all in perspective.

People call me a bitch like it's a bad thing.

Well crap. Most of these people felt bad about the Nohari, they don't want to judge you – blah, blah, blah. Thing is, of *course* we all judge you. Apparently we deem you acceptable (freaky porn links aside) enough to hang out here. Perception is a tricky beast, much more about me than you.
Anyhow, I don't really want to know what people think of me. Maybe just the lowest common denominator – do they like me? Way more than that, I don't want people to know what *I* think. I was raised to be polite (even if I despise the bastards) – they've got no business in my head! 'Cept you, cause you asked. :angel:

I did it, but the negative choices s made me feel like a guilty, mean, judgy, bitchy Republican.

Oh wait…nothing new there.

Still I didn't like. I did it, but I didn't like it and now I feel dirty.

Pthffffwttt! :banghead:

This was interesting to do after the passing of time and 'knowing' you more.

I also liked reading other people's 'picks' although there are some I truly shake my head at.

Dude. That was HORRIBLE! The Nohari window, at least. I HATE doing that! I HATE telling people what I don't like about them. And honestly? I was reaching. Because I like you and if I like the person? It would take finding out that person is a serial killer for me to have a negative opinion of them.

I think it's great you did this and want to know the good as well as the bad. But the bad? Was so hard to fill out.

Bubblewench, ignorance is indeed bliss sometimes!

Lisa, well, even if I've never done anything negative, everyone has negative personality traits.

Sheila, I'm sorry that "huge penis" wasn't one of the options for you to choose.

Catherine, I qualify my answers, too. A simple "yes" or "no" never suffices.

Grant, by mature they just mean I have pubic hair.

Tracy, I can see that about you.

Ajooja, well, Amanda's the hottest female blogger in Missourah.

Bossy, then I'd totally just have sex with myself all of the time.

Karen, heh – it's okay to pick some negative traits even of people you like.

Delmer, that's how I feel, too!

Hilly, here's a good way to tell me exactly what my negatives are and I'll still love you for it!

Bec, welcome back!

Kiefer and Emo, us either.

Trukindog, true, but these were dominant traits, I think.

Em, finally, somebody other than link)','caption', 'Almost as smart as I am' );">Britt who enjoys pointing out negative aspects of my personality!

Girl, Dislocated, I do it on a case by case basis, too. Most people's opinions aren't worth shit to me.

Giggle Pixie, I just want to be happy with who other people think I am!

Robin, you probably did. Do it again!

PotU, aw, no fair!

AHAU, well-endowed didn't show up either, disappointingly.

Twinkie, I don't see it as neediness. I see it as an audience with expectations.

TrishK, ha! You are one funny old lady!

BE Earl, I consider most people to be idiots, so their opinion doesn't mean anything to me. But for those people who know me, whether it's online or off, their opinion is important.

Maria, that seems completely appropriate for you.
