	Just curious. If I'm using perfume or body mist, I lean towards slightly sweet with woody or floral notes (depends on what kind of flower/wood). I like ocean and water themed scents but not on myself. Dessert scents are a no.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I don't use a lot of fragrance indoors. Sometimes I'll run my oil diffuser with a few drops of lavender or lemongrass, might use a light air freshener spray in the herbal or citrusy category like once or twice a year. I'm somewhat sensitive; strong products and certain fragrances tend to give me headaches or nausea, or rarely, asthma symptoms. But most don't cause me problems and I don't hate air fresheners, it just depends on how it's used. Some are overpowering or *gross* - I don't want to smell fruit or pumpkin spice in a public bathroom <span class="ipsEmoji">🤢</span>

	If you have (or had) a beard, do you like to wash it? Or even if you've ever thought about having a beard, would you wash it? Would you use the same shampoo you use for your head? Special beard shampoo? The soap you use for your face?

	How would you rate your sporting/athletic ability in comparison to others of a similar age (for example school)
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	When I played for a club at under 12s gaelige football, in one match we used 4 of our 5 subs, then we had a player injured. The manager decided that  to bring back on a player already taken off, instead of putting me on.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Another game, we had 1 extra player which meant I was the only sub.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	So I think bottom quintile for me

	An inexhaustive list. If you own these items but don't primarily store them in your bathroom then they do not count for the purpose of this poll. If they are in a shared bathroom but do not belong to you they do count.

	I do prefer the window seat. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I got on a bus today and when I got on 75% of the passengers already on the bus took aisle seats. 
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	That is right, only 1 passenger on the bus was in a window seat. (And the way those 3 aisle heaters were seated, made it hard to manoeuvre by on a moving bus)
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	I was the only passenger at the last pick up point so that left 60-40 in preference of aisle seats

	Do you guys have bad plane ears? On planes, I tend to wear these things called Ear Planes that are supposed to help with the pressure, but I'm still brought to tears by the pain every time. My sisters weren't affected at all, and I'm stuck with the pressure and now mild pain. They won't even pop right. Like, they make popping noises, but no pressure is released and I can feel it go back. My ears pop all the time even when I'm not on a plane so that's probably related. I also noticed that the angle of my head makes my ears hurt and pop/crackle, but IDK what that's about. Last time I was on a plane before yesterday, I had ear pressure for 6 weeks.

	So at the end of 2026, what age will you be?
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	in previous editions, there has been criticism that  the age is not uniform, so syncing it to being the end of the year (as aven's age limit is 13)

For those who don't know, Superman has a Kryptonian name: Kal-El. I want a Kryptonian name too! I'm between Kalypso-Starr and Kalyxo-Starr
