Me too. But then I changed some answers I'd waffled on and became a verb. heh.

I can easily see you as a verb. Indeed, I can. :-)

I'm a noun. They didn't have any really good descriptors of my personality, tho....

I had the same problem. There were a number of questions for which I had to pick the best of a bad lot.

There are no vowels in their pronunciation key. That seems unhealthy to me.

I love having friends who share the IPA love.

I have an IPA eye chart on my cube wall. Many people walk past it and just go "huh?" But some of my coworkers get it. And that makes my little geek heart very happy.
