[Poll] The not-secret not-meme

So, there was this secret questions meme going around. And of course I was curious - I am, after all, made mostly of curiosity (actual formula: 70% curiosity, 22% sarcasm, 8% cheese) - but you had to agree to post the meme to get the questions. And I don't do memes here.

And then a certain person rended the veil of secrecy. I won't name her. (Okay, I will. It was [livejournal.com profile] toft_froggy. All hail her!) And. Well. I was kind of disappointed. I expected AWESOME questions. I expected questions WORTH keeping a secret. ("Who is fixing the current presidential election?" for example.) Instead, they were - well. I didn't think they were optimized for fannish use, let's put it that way.

So obviously I had no choice; I wrote my own version of the meme (with extensive help from [livejournal.com profile] best_beloved, as I was actually nursing the earthling while I did this). But I still don't post memes here. Instead, I am posting a poll! Please answer with names selected from your friends list. And please do answer. Unlike the original meme, these are things I seriously want to know.

I seem to be on the outside of the outside... that is, having been linked here, I have no idea what the secret meme is or even which fandom it involves. Would you care to share the boring questions?

The secret questions meme involves no specific fandom (I'm guessing possibly it came from somewhere in anime, though, as it mentions cosplay), and I have no idea where it came from. It spread super-rapidly across my friends list for a few days, and now seems to be dying out, largely because there are enough copies of the questions around that you don't have to do the meme to find out what they are.

And since I got the questions (well, statements, really) without having to promise to do the meme, I will happily pass them along to you. This is the meme:

There are 30 questions.

Answer each question with one name.

Next to each number, write only the name of the person who fits.

Don't tell the questions to anyone who isn't doing the meme

01. Someone who seems to have a lot of close friends.

02. Someone you've known for a long time.

03. Someone you'd like to trade places with.

04. Someone who seems likely to be a member of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.

05. Someone who seems easy to talk to.

06. Someone who seems to have a lot of wild ideas / fantasies.

07. Someone who seems like they were popular at school.

08. Someone you think you would have been close to if you went to school together.

09. Someone you want to stay up all night talking to.

10. Someone who can look after children.

11. Someone who seems to fall in love a lot.

12. A beauty.

13. Someone who seems like a celebrity.

14. Someone who is girly / manly

15. Someone you want to dress up as the opposite gender.

16. Someone grown-up.

17. Someone childlike.

18. Someone who is like a princess / prince.

19. Someone who seems capable.

20. Someone who has a unique view on life.

21. Someone who you are grateful to.

22. Someone who makes you laugh.

23. Someone you think of as your boss.

24. Someone who would kill you if you got on their bad side.

25. Someone who seems good at seduction.

26. Someone you think you could seduce.

27. Someone who loves with all their heart.

28. Someone you want to see in cosplay.

29. Someone you seriously want to go on a date with.

30. A message to all the above people.

Wow, those are... really lame questions. I think I've seen that, come to think of it, in a couple places on my flist. I'm glad I didn't agree to post those questions; I'd have been mad. LOL.
