If you could make an executive decision to change one thing about the site, what would it be?

Thanks for doing this AMA. I've been a member for years, enjoyed success for it, read your blog, and have your book on my desk right now (only starting part 2 of it now).

The question burning in my mind is about people and their self-descriptions. I often find that people are their own worst critics, and fall into describing themselves in idealized ways. It's for this reason that you see unique people posting non-unique descriptors (Love to laugh! Like to travel! Pose with tigers! Night in with Netflix and wine!).

What are your thoughts on how people are versus how they describe themselves? Also, do you feel that OKCupid tries to pair people based on how they describe themselves or based on who they actually are?
