I still think Chabad should be next to Chasidish.

I don't know what the difference between Litvish and Yeshivish is. Am I alone in that regard? Also, I once heard that Chofetz Chaim guys don't like to consider themselves Yeshivish, so I wonder where they fit. I'm sure this poll has been done before and has seen similar issues raised - there are too many sects of Judaism. Even within Modern Orthodox there are so many flavors.

BTW, you may also wish to modify the name of the thread.   Maybe Religious Affiliation: Which Category Are You?  A catchall for nonJewish could be 'other religion' without having to delineate Jewish.

Uh-oh.  Now we are in trouble.  A Sephardi can fit in every single category!  That is not a category and will be VERY confusing.  That would be a separate poll if you want.  Sephardi/Ashkenazi.
 
ETA  Hmm.  Maybe not.  You are asking us to describe ourselves.  A Sephardi would probably describe himself as a Sephardi first even if he were Chabad/Chassidish/etc..  It depends what you are looking for in this just shmooze, chilled, shoot the breeze turned intense, thought provoking poll.

I need an option for either Litvish/Chasidish or Heimish. I'm not Chasidish but I can't bring myself to select Litvish.
If you don't care why would you comment?

What if we devote this thread to agreeing on the perfect poll. Then started a new poll from scratch once and for all!

Is Heimish to Chasidish like Modern Orthodox to the other categories?

I thought heimish means that you'd walk into someone's house without knocking... ;)
And yeshivish is a type of car. CMIIW...
