Calling all atheists

[serene]

I know there are several atheists on my friendslist. The rest of you, go ahead and skip this post. :-)

I am creating a series of PSAs -- they will, I hope, be circulated widely, and I'm going to print them in the new magazine. They will look something like this (this is a crude first draft; imagine them better):



You totally want to be in these PSAs, right?

Send a photo to 42magazine@serenepages.com if you want to join. You should also suggest some nouns. We're looking for the blandest, most middle-america aspects of you (the_ogre was the example I thought of: "Veteran. Cat-lover. Atheist."), but if that grates on you, choose your own.

[Edit: "Bland" isn't exactly the right word for what I'm talking about. I guess the feeling of it is "Look, here's this list of qualities that is really unlikely to offend anyone, and here at the end? Atheist. This is a person just like any other person. This person is also an atheist."]

See, there's my problem. The only one of those I'd be comfortable with as a noun is bicyclist, and that's rather tenuous and really not very normal. I function in adjectives and verbs most of the time. Nouns are so... certain.

"Pedant"

Heh. Yes, that one I'll claim.

Well, to my mind, one who fences is a fencer, and so on, but hey, "Bicylist. Pedant. Atheist." totally works for me. :-)
