NightScribe Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Over on Biography Channel website they've got a little quiz to find potential "love matches" for you from deceased famous people. I tried it and it's a hoot. The three people it suggested to me were: Leonardo DaVinci (genius artist/inventor) Rudolph Valentino (allegedly the world's greatest lover) and last, but not least: Edgar Allan Poe (tormented but totally awesome author) Co-worker of mine said "yeah, I can totally see you with Poe." Give it a try and post your results here if you want to share. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanaea Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I got the same three, but in a different order: DaVinci, Poe, Valentino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polywolly Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Edgar Allan Poe Leonardo da Vinci Ludwig van Beethoven Hmm... A writer, an artist, and a musician. Yep, that sounds about right. But I didn't get Valentino. Let's try again... Different criteria, same men! Now, what if I were a lesbian...

Mourningstar Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Does this reveal a trend among the AFFers, or is the test inclined to give us similar results? I can just about see it... "Another directed here from that site? What the Hell, they're all alike anyway, let's toss them a writer, some intriguing, dashing figure and, hmm, some other artsy, creative type. That should keep them happy." The men suggested to me were Leonardo DaVinci Rudolph Valentino Edgar Allan Poe Whereas the women were Frida Kahlo Agatha Christie Mata Hari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Madapple Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 I got: E. A. Poe Leo da Vinci Vincent Van Gogh (I'll not be opening any small bloody packages any time soon. None of mine are particularly dashing. I've decided I definitely don't want to go to the airport and watch planes take off with Leonardo DaVinci. I think I'd take him to a Karaoke bar, give him a massive amount of drambuie and make him sing Aerosmith songs, like "Janie's got a Gun." Yes, that's it, the perfect date. If I were a lesbian: Princess Grace of Monaco Lucretia Borgia Agatha Christie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oishiichan Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 If I was looking to date a historical female their suggestions are: Agatha Christy Grace Kelly Lucrezia Borgia Interesting combination.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonhart29 Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 I think we all pretty much think alike, but mine kind of surprised me. John F Kennedy - sure I thought he was handsome and he was assisinated on my Mother's 13th birthday, but I'm not too into adulturers Vincent Van Gogh - Loved his paintings, and I'm all for a little angst, but come on? Self mutilation? Rudolph Valentino - He was my grandmother's favorite. Maybe Mom's right and I'm channeling her without realizing it. And of course I have just rotten luck with the ladies (although I admire two of them - I think I might be a little out in left field.

polywolly Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Vincent Van Gogh (I'll not be opening any small bloody packages any time soon.) Everyone loves gifts, unless they're from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
