Actually, you're not, but that phrase always cracks me up for some reason.

Eh, most of my income right now comes from poker, but I'm not a pro. I'm just an idiot without a real job. I really don't feel like a professional and I know my game isn't good enough to call myself one.

Not me. I know of someone who has taken a liking to the word "Donk" with a vengeance, and he's my frontrunner. He once had a post that said, in its entirety, "Douchebag. My new favorite word."

That person seemed too obvious at first. I agree with you now though.

I'm in the less than 10% group.

I work full time (and am debatably overpaid). Poker is a challenging hobby.

Outside the first 3 months I started playing online - I don't think I've logged a week of 40 hours or more playing time. I average somewhere in the 10-15 range.

Everytime I think about trying to play in a more dedicated fashion, other things come along to distract me.

I'm at the other end of this spectrum. I am (not debatedly at all) underpaid, so poker constitutes a significant portion of my income right now. I had a good run a few nights ago and made the equivalent of my week's salary in a four hour session. However, I can expect my employment income to triple in the next few years. As a result, I could continue winning the same amount at poker, but the % of total income figure would slip from 25% to less than 10%. I don't think either figure makes me more or less of a pro. I don't expect to deserve that title ever in my lifetime.

FWIW, I feel there is a nice percentage of SS posters who are in the same boat as myself

Same boat.
