Why are you not _ Ajah?

Because Brown offers the best bribes

Okay, a serious answer

I guested with all the Ajahs, spending at least two weeks in each. For most of them I'd post maybe once or twice in all that time: I'm not the most active poster at the best of times. For a few I knew within a few days that the Ajah wasn't "me" because a lot of the threads in there were of the sort that I glanced at once and then ignored in the public forums.

The two Ajahs that really stood out from this were Red and Brown. I have a HUGE Red streak, although it doesn't come across online. IRL, my friends will tell you they know I love them because I'm mean to them

In the end, though, as great as the Reds are, I felt I could really be myself in Brown. In Red I'd always be playing up one aspect of my personality, whereas here I felt more free to be myself. There're quite a few other almost Reds with who I can share my snark; there're plenty who aren't afraid to squee over whatever; and I'm pretty sure all Browns are willing to endure a complete geek-out on whatever, including really obscure facts about some obscure field of study, because that's what they do too.
