I looked at mine this morning after a friend posted about it. It said I was very liberal. I don't really agree, I straddle the fence on a few things, but I can see how it would pick that based on what I post. I didn't look at the other categories.

It doesn't know much about me other than I am friends with women who have birthdays and I have an affinity for African American people.

LMAO @ friends with women who have birthdays. It's like a psychic. "I'm seeing that you were born once....."

I checked mine yesterday after I saw a post. I only had two items- friends with upcoming birthdays and soccer. Which is weird, I don't watch or talk about soccer lol. I deleted them anyways.

Very liberal, commuter, Gmail user: These are right and make sense. The ones that don't and make me laugh out loud are: computation and mathematics & housemate-based households.

Mine had “lives away from family” which is accurate but also very creepy that it identified it. Seeing the ad categories totally made me want to delete Facebook.

Mine knows very little about me.
"Uses a mobile device" showed up a few times.

my first one was "away from family" - Soccer fan with moderate engagement - knows every device I own/use - commuter. yup it rules my life atm - Housemate Based Household (non-immediate family living with us) - lol nope. But maybe because DH's profile is a dog and I interact with him this is throwing things off

This makes sense, but I only have where I attended high school and college on my Facebook. Which to be fair, are on opposite sides of the state. But now that I think about it, my parents are labeled as my parent on Facebook, and they have on their profiles where they live, which is far away from where I went to school. So it isn’t a huge leap. I didn’t think logically.

Just checked mine. It was weird but didn’t seem totally useful or particularly accurate. Other than my phone type, mobile usuage and political leanings. Removed it all because.

Mine said I'm an engaged shopper (I'm not) I have a kid 3-5 (I do) and I'm very liberal (I am) The rest was about what devices and browsers I use.
