We have a lot in common.
I don't wear camo. Nor do I. I wear green and drab colours though.
I prefer real beer to lager. Same here
I don't like pot noodle. Same here but I am partial to a Thai Sweet Chilli Naked Noodle.
I use split shot not putty. I use bottom baits.
I don't speak carp lingo. Good because it's embarrassing to listen to.
I never spod the granny out of it. Yeah I get bored after a few casts.
I've never listened to a pod cast. Yes not just fishing but any sort of pod cast.

Also I don't know what hydros are or mean and I don't really care.
Call me a boring **** but I don't do drugs either, no need when you drink as much as I do.

I also dont wear camo (actually thats a lie I have 2x camo beanies in my beanie collection)
I prefer red wine on the bank (and have done since my 20's much to the amusement of others)
I hate spodding and find its generally a fish scarer rather than attractor
I rarely if ever use zigs (generally because I cant be arsed and think its cheating)
I have neither beard nor tats
I dont spk carp lingo or shout 'get in' when I've caught one
I prefer to sleep at night and catch at either dusk or dawn rather than be rudely awakened at 3.58 am
I've never tied or used a ronnie rig or a turbo german or any other daft rig
I don't use overpriced designer boilies and only have 2x pots of pop ups
I only graff fish I like the look of
I only weigh fish if it looks like a PB
I listen to Radio 4 pretty much exclusively when fishing
If I'm comfy and confident I rarely move swims
I'm not interested in social media
I like using bait boats . . .!!

bit of a laugh!

I wear old clothes for fishing.
I fold my reel handles... but only so they fit in the holdall.
I clean my mug between cups of tea.

I don't half mind a lager or a podcast though!!!

I would say not weighing fish is VERY "carpy". Discuss if you wish...!

I have a real tree bib n brace thats twenty years old that i sometimes wear when roving for predators in winter.
I prefer coca cola or very rarely an occasional cidar
I like the chicken and mushroom pot noodle. Id be extremely wary of anyone who doesnt.
I use balance weights as the lobster sized crays where i fish would chew off shot or putty very quickly
I can barely speak english let alone carpese. But I will ironically shout 'hit it' or 'bosh'
I spod. The fish respond well to it on my tickets. Both my grannies been dead for years.
I listen to pod casts all the time. Joe Rogan, Lex, James English, Micheal Franzese, Korda. You are missing out on a very interesting world if you dont.

I guess that makes me 50% carpy?

I've only heard of korda in that list but never listened. Only vids I watch are esp hearn ones but did watch laney a bit during lock down even though I was working through it but couldn't go fishing.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
