The Person Who
I tried to write the gist of these questions in the questions themselves, but it got a little awkward, so I'll just explain it here and try to make each question simpler. You know how, in our regular daily existences, we often run into the same people in the same contexts, but don't know them by name? We often think of them as "The Guy Who Breathes Loudly," or "Red-Haired Babe With The Porsche." For each of these questions, please think of how you are referred to by others (perhaps as "The Person Who ___________") who see you in these contexts.

And if that doesn’t make any sense, just answer any questions that pop into your head. I tried.

1. At a business establishment you patronize regularly, what might the employees refer to you as, when they speak of you behind your back?

   I'm pretty sure the Taco Bell people know me as She Who Always Gets Nachos and Something Chicken-y with Her Diet Pepsi.

2. Similarly, at your places of employment, current and/or past, what do either the patrons or brand-new employees who don’t remember your name yet probably refer to you as?

   Plenty of people who know me mess up my name, but if anyone at work can't remember my name I'm assuming they call me The Cataloger, or The Woman Who Sits in That Corner.

3. Aliens have come to earth to observe families and take notes. If each member of your family is listed as the one who __________, which are you? (bonus question: what are the others in your family written down as?)

   I would be Mom, Beast would be Dad, and Sparky would be Son. Not too creative, but there ya go.

4. You meet someone you had a crush on in high school, someone who didn't know you felt that way (let's say you meet him or her in the grocery store, and that the snow is falling Christmas Eve…). He or she doesn't remember your name, but does remember you. How are you cataloged in this old crush's memory?

   One of the Smart Band-Geeky Crowd.

5. If a hobby of yours were to have some kind of club, and if the other club members only knew you by your particular preferences, styles, or behaviors in that hobby, how would they refer to you?
