This all started when Christina sent me a form for friends to fill out. I filled it out for her, and then sent a blank one to all my friends. These are the answers that I have gotten back. They are all color coded by name. Each response is put in order based upon how much I like the answer. The answer I like LEAST is put FIRST. The answer I like the MOST is saved for the LAST.

Color Key for Answers:

See a List of Elisha's Friends

1. Am I one of your best friends?
No.
I would also have to say no.
Not really, we've only known each other for a couple months.
As opposed to one of my worst? Yes.
Probably, but don't get too excited, I don't have a lot of friends.
Yes. But, that's only because I don't really have any close friends, so the qualifications of being one of my best friends become being very likable and having the ability to tolerate me.
Not yet.
You are one of my best friends...
YES
You are, by far, my best companion (person to be in the company of), definitely qualifying you as one of my "best friends."




2. Describe me in three words.
Work with guy
Brown, blue, slim, Elisha
Jewish??? Almost there!!!
Intelligent, odd, a kid at heart
Anal, thoughtful, nice
Intelligent, energetic, open.
Intelligent, nice, and creative.
Well, oddly intriguing.
Caring, understanding, different
Analytical, unpredictable and nice




3. What animal do I most remind you of?
A human
Chimp
Parakeet, but a yellow one.
I would say chicken because that is what I remember from Spanish class.
Chicken. I named you a chicken a long time ago because that was I though best suited you at the time because you are skinny and do the little head-bobbing thing like a chicken some times...
A human, actually. (You are one of the few people who do.)
A parrot.
Rabbit (don't ask why it just popped into my head)
Squirrel (smart, but kind of shy)
A ferret




4. Do I annoy you sometimes?
I suppose we all annoy each other sometimes.
Nope.
You're not around me enough to annoy me yet (which is Jamie's fault)
Yes
Yes
Yes
No more than anybody else
Once in awhile when you correct things that I say, but I've gotten used to it. It doesn't bother me much anymore.
Sometimes you annoy me, usually when I'm not in the mood to analyze everything...
You bug the hell out of me a lot, but it is not annoying, it is fun... so no!




5. If we could be anywhere, where would it be and why?
In the city of Townsville, so I could visit the Power Puff Girls, and you could come along because your cool.
In the office, because we always are.
Camping, because I love camping.
Sitting in front of two computers, one for me and one for you, adjacent to each other, and not saying a word, for we speak only through words on the screen.
A huge computer center, where we could play with different systems, software, and games. We both are intrigued by technology and it seems interested in some of the same aspects of technology.
An arcade, because we both enjoy video games. That and since your not a girl I cant think of anything.
Anywhere we could be alone... [I'm assuming that anything that was implied was just kidding]
In a porn video. I don't know why, but I also don't know why not.
Disneyland, because you promised.
I would say that we should go somewhere totally new and far away just to get away from all the normal things that go on in day to day life.




6. What is one memory that we have shared, and that you will never forget?
[Left Blank]
[Left Blank]
Well...when I used to make fun of you a long time ago. I'll never stop feeling bad about that. None of it was true. I don't know why I ever did it, and I'm glad you don't hate me.
I don't remember... ohh yeah, umm... probably when we were watching Fight Club. I bonded with the movie in a weird sorta' way, and I think you got at least close to the same thing out of it, which I respect strongly, for some reason.
I would have to say being in Spanish for half the school year together and dealing with each other was very memorable.
San Jose.
Heh, heh, the club you got in, on the San Jose trip.
That day we went downtown
There are so many things that I will never forget, but the thing that I will probably remember most of all would be that first night I spent time with you on my playing field; at Christina's house...
When you and I laid together on Christina's couch.




7. Am I easy to get along with?
Yeah, unless I ever say a single illogical word.
At all times in which you are not being some other way to get along with, so... YES, with the exclusion of a few months where you weren't actually being Elisha.
Yes
Yes
Yes
Most the time.
Hell's yeah.
Absolutely, as long as others don't mind analytical and philosophical conversations
Usually you are, especially since you have noticed that I'm a person now...
For me you are.




8. Name one good quality about me!
You are not stupid. And I would even go so far as to say that you are wise.
You are logical
You are not an idiot... congratulations!!! And you are completely obsessive and controlling, but really laid-back and kind of submissive at the same time.
You are very cute.
Smart
Caring
I would go back to question #2 and say "open" as in open to new things, ready to try things and just having a healthy positive attitude about life.
You are smarter than anyone I know.
The ability to express yourself in any given situation is often a great quality
You're so smart and overly analytical, but you retain what most teenagers (or anybody really) can't when they're like that: an open mind, which is necessary with that mindset




9. Name one bad quality about me! Be nice!
Too much Pokémon.
You use really big words.
You definitely don't like the Power Puff Girls enough!
Can't think of one right now.
You are logical to the point of causing me to consider homicide.
You over analyze too many things.
Maybe a bit indecisive, but that probably is because at work everyone is very sure of themselves and loud and boisterous.
If you could be more energetic, and show it -- but this may well be the case already.
The ability to express yourself in any given situation is often a poor quality
You're so smart and overly analytical. It's only really bad for yourself. I'm always so worried that you won't leave yourself enough room for feeling and faith and that you're life will always be unfulfilled.




10. Would you get into a fight just to defend me?
No. You're the blackbelt. I'm just the scrawny geek who couldn't swing to save his own life. jk. I'm sure if you couldn't handle something I would be there to get my ass kicked right alongside you.
Hellz yeah! I'd be all over that punk-ass!
Sure. Whom with?
Probably not, because I am too shy to say anything.
Yes I would, to even MY surprise.
Yes
Yes
Only if there was a good reason and I knew I would win.
Yes, like if you knocked in to someone at a club, and they started something, I'd jump in for sure (and probably get knocked flat. I'm no fighter :) )
Sure I would...




11. Have you ever talked about me behind my back? Be honest!
[Left Blank]
Probably hundreds of times, but I have only made negative comments to myself.
Yes
Not really, do not think that you have come up in this context.
Not badly.
Yes, mostly good things though.
Yes, but not in a bad way.
Probably, but does it really matter?...[filler]...Being the semi moral guy that I am, I couldn't talk trash about you behind your back (no more so than I talk trash to your face, that is), so you have nothing to worry about
Yes. Whoever says they haven't talked about anyone else they know behind their back is a liar.
Of course, I talk about everyone, but I only say things that I would say in front of you too.




12. On a scale of one to ten, how sweet would you rate me?
You don't strike me a being a sweet person and I've never see you be sweet really so I don't know.
8
It fluctuates between 5 and 7.
Eh, not sure...based on very limited experience (the car ride mostly) I'd say 7 or 8.
I would say 10, like a mouthful of sour gummy worms. Wait, that would be sour, huh...
Before I heard about you being mean to Jennifer, I would have given you an eight or nine. But now, I'm so torn. You seem so nice, but how can I tolerate anyone who would treat someone as sweet as Jennifer (like an eleven) like that.
Oh you are very sweet, but we will leave the ranking to your lady friends.
I would rate you at 8.6
Using the closest definition of sweet that I can for you: 8.9
15




13. Would you trust me with a secret?
Would you trust me with yours?
I don't really have any secrets, but I would probably tell you if I did.
Yes, I'll trust almost anyone with a secret though, depending on the caliber of the secret.
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Absolutely
I would talk to you about almost anything, and some of those things should remain confidential, so YES!!
Of course I would trust you with just about everything.




14. Better yet, would you trust me with your life?
Doubt it. For two reasons, that I am not very trusting and that I do not really know you that well.
What life?
Yes, (but only in a rather desperate situation :))
Not yet
Depending on the situation but probably.
Overall I think I would trust you with my life.
Even though it's sounds wrong, I would trust you with my life.
No. I don't think you have enough appreciation for life. I think you would be thinking I'd be better off dead. I don't resent you for it or anything.
Hell yeah. I trust you enough to keep me alive... and even if you didn't, I would get to die and have you to blame, either way is great!!!
No, Mr. What-Are-Ethics-For-Anyway




15. Am I funny or serious?
You, sir, are definitely... serinny (I almost said furious, but I think that could be taken in a bad way).
Funny
Both
Seriously funny.
You can be both.
Both really.
It depends on if I'm in a mood to take how anal you are in a funny way.
Funny. You're so damn serious all the time about everything you talk about, no matter how trivial, it just becomes funny.
Sometimes seriously funny, and sometimes humorously serious
You are a bit of both at different times.




16. Am I bright or shady?
You are the real slim shady
Shady.
Bright
Bright
As bright as a California morning.
Usually bright
Usually you are bright. And on the rare occasions you are "shady," I love to dwell in it, which makes me shine, and therefore you are always very, very bright.
[Apparently, this answer has been lost do to my error...]
Bright, I guess. What exactly are you asking?
Once again you are both, even at the same times you are dark, but you still give of a glow that's all your own...




17. Do you enjoy my company?
Whaddydatellya -- yes.
Yes.
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yes
Yeah. What's it to ya!?
All together, you are most likely the best MALE person I have ever been around in my life.
Yes I do...
Indubitably




18. Would you be able to hang with just me, and still have a good time?
Why not?
If we could talk about something you weren't overly cynical about for at least part of the time.
I don't know. We have to figure stuff out to talk about. We haven't found a lot of things in common or common ground to just pick up enough conversations alone.
Probably. I might feel a little uncomfortable at first, but that is just how I am with anyone.
Yep
Yes
Yes
I have hung out with you on quite a many instances, and I never once thought about the time, so I don't remember if the time was good or not. I will have to remember to check my watch more often.
Since we are always with your family or our friends, we should try doing something alone sometime... but from past experience, I would say I like you better alone than with others.
Of course I would my dear.




19. Have you ever dreamed about me, or have I been in one of your dreams?
No, but I did have a dream about Kayti... [it continues like this for a rather long paragraph]
If I dreamed of school, you were probably in the dream, but I have never had a dream devoted exclusively to you.
Only been IN a dream
Not that I remember.
Not that I recall.
I've dreamed about work, and you've been in those, but never just you.
I can't say that I remember you being in any of my dreams, I don't have very many dreams though.
Yeah
You have been in several of my dreams (approximately 4-6), and you were the main character in one of them.
I do believe so...




20. Would you say that I am a dancer or singer? Don't ask
[Chose to skip]
[Chose to skip]
A singing dancer.
[a very confused response]
Singer
A singer. You're not all that into movement I don't think. That's why you like working on your computer, playing video games, not playing sports, listening to and creating music, etc.
I SAW YOU DANCE AT THE CLUB! You are a dancer!
Dancer. I seen you do it.
Definitely a Dancer...
I say dancer, because you "bust a move" when you are happy.




21. Am I fun to be with at parties?
I don't know, I'm rarely invited to parties.
You never let me drink alcohol, so NO!!!
Not really. But you could be worse. You just like to wait for the right conversation to join..
Kinda
Dunno -- not applicable, we did not really intersect. But, I have no doubt that you are.
Yes
Depending on what kind of party your talking about. Sure
Yep
At my kind of party I think you would be fun to be with.
Oh yes. (I say with experience)




22. What movie, show, or song makes you think of me?
Responsibility by MXPX, just because it is the song that reminds me of our trip.
Duh, Pokémon... There are other things that remind me of you also but I can't think of them...
Fight Club... Duhh!
Fight Club
Pokémon.
Pokémon.
Pokémon
It's a Wonderful Life
Pi
The Matrix, when The Oracle says, "What's really going to bake your noodle later on is would you still have broken it if I hadn't said anything?" This reminds me of when we would just go on analyzing about the dumbest things when we were in Heffler's room for lunch.




23. Who do I remind you of?
No one
Jar Jar from the new Star Wars movie. I think it's just the posture.
Ross Perot. Don't worry, you don't look like him. You just have similar traits, such as ambition and debate.
My friend Shaina from second grade.
A little of my younger brother
Ash
Actually you remind me of my dad some times.
George Bailey
Your father. Only because the parallel's intriguing.
You fit the general infrastructure of your father, but you are cynical in a more clever way, almost as good as I, so I dub you as a cross between the two immediately aforementioned people. (With his brains, and my intentions, may the world be thankful that it still exists.)




24. When you hear my name, what does it remind you of, besides me?
I don't know
Mike...[Umm... Who's Mike!?]
Kung Fu Louie [And who is this guy!?]
My future husband
Pokémon.
Pokémon:)
I guess I would say your family, but that answer is like when I am watching Family Feud. I am just guessing what people would say because I don't actually have an answer.
A squirrel
Ummmm...a prophet
The prophet.




25. Would you introduce me to any of your friends?
Haven't I?
You already know Jamie.
Yes.
Yes
Yes
I think you have met almost all of my friends.
You already know most of them, but if I had friends you didn't know, I would surely introduce you to them.
If ever I had an occasion to introduce you to any of my two friends you don't already know, I would love for them to get to meet you.
You are friends with most of my friends, and the other friends I have, probably wouldn't even take the time to get to know you because they are dorks.
I have introduced you to all of my friends, and although that could be viewed as what caused the problems of my life, I would do it again, and will continue to do it, if applicable.




26. Do you love me?
Well, that cop-out definition? Whatever -- by my definition: no
Sure
Yes.
More than you will ever know. [um...]
I have the same love for you that I do for any other member of the human race that I've come in contact with that is not repulsive or repulsively stupid.
In the same way I love all humanity. Knowing the way I talk about people, that sounds awful, but I really do love everyone a little. I like you a lot more than most of them though, so it's a good thing.
Although this disturbs and pisses me off in many ways, I really do.
I would say that yes I do love you, just because of the person that you are and the way you care about others.
Yes, Elisha, I do love you very much.
With all of my heart.
