Lush · 10-20-2005, 03:33 PM

I'm going to greath lengths to avoid writing my thesis.

The latest result of my procrastination is this test .

It's for entertainment purposes only, I'm not making any money off of it, blah blah blah.

Hope you like.

P.S. The idea of the test is not to end up with someone you might expect to end up with. So if you hate who you end up with... that's probably the point.

Tigerlily Gamgee · 10-20-2005, 04:12 PM

Hah, it says I'm an Eowyn Enthusiest. Duh! Haha... I only built a website devoted to that character. But, is this also implying that I'm in to women? Hmmm... perhaps it's trying to tell me something I don't... hehe.
I wasn't expecting that at all. Yay Eowyn.

Lush · 10-20-2005, 04:33 PM

The results are supposed to be gender-neutral.

Lalaith · 10-20-2005, 04:34 PM

hehe. I got Legolas.

Anyway, many thanks for another fabby quiz, Mlle. Lush.

Kath · 10-20-2005, 04:39 PM

Hmm I got Eowyn too. I wasn't expecting that with some of the answers I put.

Glirdan · 10-20-2005, 08:24 PM

Oh no!!! I got HER!!! AMybody but her!!! NOOOOO!!!! Why Arwen!?!? The Glorfindel knocker outer and horse stealer!!!! NOOOOO!!!!!!

malkatoj · 10-20-2005, 08:32 PM

I got Gandalf.

You go for well-educated older individuals who aren't always emotionally available, seeing as they're usually grouchy, or too busy saving the world, or whatever.

Well not *that* much older. Or grouchy. But strangely enough, it almost fits...it's both cool and depressing at the same time.

Valesse · 10-20-2005, 08:33 PM

I'm apparently in competition for Arwen!

Oh my... I hope this is book-Arwen not movie-Arwen, lest there could be some problems (and I might have to turn her in for horse-napping) :O!

Firefoot · 10-20-2005, 08:49 PM

I'll be the first person to claim an Aragorn result...

You want her? Take her!! Besides, I'm already taken!!

Good idea with turning her in. I'm going to do it again and see wat I get....

Well, I did it and got Aragorn. Even though I'm not gay, he's better then Arwen, the stupid horse stealing prissy. Unless it's the book Arwen. But even then, she's still not for me. Oh well, tat's wat u get for being me....

Man I'm gald these are gender-neutral.

Alcarillo · 10-20-2005, 09:46 PM

I am apparently a Gandalf Geisha.

I'm glad these are supposed to be gender-neutral.

the phantom · 10-21-2005, 12:27 AM

I got Arwen. It said-

Let's face it, you like your lover on a pedestal. Hey, that's not a bad thing. A pedestal is better than a pit.

You are most comfortable around individuals who are subtle.

You're no commitment phobe and you expect the same amount of devotion from the object of your affection. Sometimes, you're a little bit too demanding, though.

Take it easy, soldier.

I don't know if it was supposed to be, but that little summary was rather accurate in my case.

Anguirel · 10-21-2005, 01:00 AM

the phantom-we seem to have plenty in common!

It's so true, too...

Rune Son of Bjarne · 10-21-2005, 04:24 AM

Great just great.

I Thought I could take it, what ever the result might be, but I was wrong!(So wrong)
If there ever was one thing about the downs that iritatet me, then It would be the fact that allmost every body has some sort of undieing love for Eowyn. In fact one of my finest moments in hear was when she got votet of the surviver island!
Apperently I have too rethink this whole Eowyn thing as I am a EOWYN ENTHUSIAST!

**The Saucepan Man** · 10-21-2005, 06:26 AM

The Saucepan Man ROCKS for ROSIE!

Quote:

She don't need to be rich to be your girl. She don't need to be cool to rock your world.

You like fun, down-to-earth people who are not averse to the occasional pint and a spin around the dance-floor. You want to share your life with someone who is sweet and devoted and totally into the simple joys of domestic bliss.

Eat, drink, and be married, already.

That is startlingly accurate.

Although it would be doing Mrs Saucepan a disservice to suggest that she is solely into the simple joys of domestic bliss.

Quote:

Just remember that birth control is not the enemy.

Quite so. Unlike Sam and Rosie, we have most definately drawn the line at two.

Lhunardawen · 10-21-2005, 06:37 AM

I got the same result as Sauce, but I don't think it fits me at all.

*retakes quiz*

wilwarin538 · 10-21-2005, 08:03 AM

wilwarin538 ROCKS for ROSIE!

Oh my. *follows Lhuna to try again*

This is more like it.

I ADORE my ARAGORN!

Kitanna · 10-21-2005, 08:09 AM

STAY AWAY FROM METROSEXUALS.

Fun times, fun times.
Very nice Lush, very nice indeed.

radagastly · 10-21-2005, 08:09 AM

Tried it twice and ended up with Rosie both times! Pretty cool, and eerily accurate.

Lalaith · 10-21-2005, 08:15 AM

My goodness, am I the only one here who, (according to Lush's quiz at least) "likes a show-off"?

mormegil · 10-21-2005, 08:43 AM

Apparently I'm a Rosie fan as well as SpM and Lhuna

Gurthang · 10-21-2005, 08:58 AM

You cannot be serious... Galadriel?!

*faints from embarassment*

I don't like this thing... It says I'm gonna have to buy a lot of extravagant gifts. And I apparently like gorgeous hair. Hmm...

Rimbaud · 10-21-2005, 09:28 AM

For Lush, I say. I plunge.

Me. Rimbaud. Legolas.

Que?

Don't worry Lalaith... I also got stuck with pretty-boy/elf.

And somewhere, I have to admit the description at least kinda fits.

The very scary thing is that I got the same answer- and if I was in the market for girls that would be the perfect description...

Hmm... Maybe Lhuna's right... maybe we ARE twins...

Lush · 10-21-2005, 12:10 PM

Legolas is definitely the option that fits me best, so never fear.

Arwen for me too.

As long as it is Book Arwen I'm not complaining, that cute little Luthien look-a-like. Why, I have fond memories of her distant ancestor when she came to Angband, the saucy little mink!

......What do you mean, 'that's not how things went'? Tsssk, you shouldn't believe everything those Elven scribes write down.

Morsul the Dark · 10-22-2005, 10:34 AM

Eowyn?hmmm...thats all wrong i couldnt get like arwen or even if i got a guy itd be better...well i got eowyn thats close to a guy i guess...lol no im kidding i just didn't expect to see her show turn a vulnerability....is that like opposite of eowyn?

Eomer of the Rohirrim · 10-24-2005, 06:42 AM

Arwen and her consequent description of myself.

You seem to know an awful lot about us Lush.

Seriously, a bit strange for me, but some parts fit...
Great test, Lush...

Holbytlass · 10-25-2005, 03:08 PM

I'm a Gandalf Geisha, too. Well, the only thing "right" thing is that Mr. Holby is 8 years older than I am!

Meela · 10-25-2005, 07:41 PM

Since when have I had a thing for Arwen? I take it Denethor wasn't on the list of options...

The Only Real Estel · 10-25-2005, 08:52 PM

Apparently I'm into Rosie & should remember that birth control is not my enemy...

Feanor of the Peredhil · 10-25-2005, 09:27 PM

Well now, what a fantastic thread to stumble upon while searching for procrastination help...

First I was told that I was into Aragorn, which is true up 'til the showering part. See, I like my boys clean and smelling nice. There is just nothing in the world like that soapy, fabric softenery, itty bitty bit of cologne scent of a good clean boy....

So I re-took it. And got something that I already knew about myself...

Quote:

You like cute emo-kids, preferably ones with a wounded look in their gorgeous eyes.

Underneath your desire to comfort them, however, lies your own desire to be comforted.

You'll make gorgeous babies together, but if they need Zoloft starting at age 5, don't look at me!

Ah, so I'm after the gorgeous guys that aren't afraid to show emotion... Lushie, darling, you've got me pinned.

Get back to work on your thesis.

(Neat quiz by the way.)

Boromir88 · 10-26-2005, 07:58 PM

Looks like Sauce and I have more things in common then we like to admit...got Rosie too.

Lush · 10-26-2005, 11:48 PM

Thesis is being worked on. Am hunting down my advisor hoping to thump him over the head with a giant tome of Tristram Shandy and bring him out of his complacent stupor.

Glad everyone is enjoying themselves, despite the Arwen-related disasters (perhaps someone shall trace the fall of our civilization to her one day).
