"You like them to be rough and tough and carry a big staff, but you're also content to share a cozy smoke and a chat about the meaning of life."

Not exactly the dandy i'm looking for, but close. Someone like Des Esseintes, or maybe a Robert Ross (the canadian from Wilde's circle, not that movie star...sheesh) would be comfortable.

But, alas, i'm afraid a Gandalf Geisha was in order on this quiz... Hmm, I think he would bore me too much. Something along the lines of too much talk on too much of the same thing. Similar interests are not always the best thing... I like inviting an enemy to lunch, it's quite fun.

Just make sure you don't get suckered into brushing that crazy hair all day long. Oh, and that whole Grey/White split personality thing can't quite be solved with detergent.

You're a GANDALF GEISHA!

Although once when I was making a list of the male literary characters I'm most fond of, I did realize that three out of the five were 13-18 years older than their wives!

Maeggaladiel · 11-26-2005, 11:58 PM

Apparently, "I ADORE my ARAGORN!" I ain't complaining! (Even though it said that I should avoid men who shower all the time.

)

Very fun quiz, Lush! I could waste countless hours with this thing.

I got Gandalf too. Uncanny description that. Someone's going to have to get a new nickname...

Gandavem?

Too true

and I ain't complaining at getting Aragorn either

Nice quiz Lush

Roa_Aoife · 12-06-2005, 10:22 AM

Hm, I adore Aragorn. Fits to a tee! Nice job, Lush.

Hilde Bracegirdle · 12-06-2005, 07:58 PM

Another Aragorn affectionato! And here I avoided the obvious reference to good boots. Not complaining mind you, as long as he picks up his own socks!

Captain Grishnahk · 12-15-2005, 08:24 AM

I got Rosie... why am i not surprised. Personally i like Eyown.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 01-12-2006, 09:03 PM

I got Frodo. Must be all those doom-related things I answered. This computer centre is just so gloomy . . .

Elu Ancalime · 01-13-2006, 04:13 PM

Hmmm.............Luthien and I would work, since apparently were soooo beautiful

Lush · 02-12-2006, 10:35 PM

Sadly Luthien is not featured on the quiz, but a relative of hers is!

Lhunardawen · 06-06-2008, 04:06 AM

I used to Rock for Rosie (and I didn't really agree), but now I'm a Gandalf Geisha.

I think this is much more like it, except for the smoke thing. And I'm not worried about the hair-brushing - I have my own crazy hair to let him brush.

(Sorry, I can't help pulling an HI on this thread. That's a really neat quiz Lushie made.)

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-06-2008, 04:25 AM

Apparently I'm GA-GA for GALADRIEL.

.

.

.

Wait, she's my father's sister!

Meela · 06-06-2008, 07:44 AM

First Arwen, now Galadriel. Where's my rugged, handsome, manly rogue?

Rune Son of Bjarne · 06-06-2008, 08:42 AM

It has been really fun reading through this thread again and re-living the frustrations of old.

I had happily forgotten about the "Everybody Loves Eowyn Movement" that one encountered constantly back then, maybe I should take the test again and get the rigt result.(Galadriel)

Diamond18 · 06-06-2008, 10:27 AM

Odd, I am quite sure I never took this test before, but I remember getting the result. I Rock for Rosie, apparently.

Tough young things with secret heartache really light your fire.

Hm...apparently I'm into people like me. I've always liked Eowyn as a character anyway.

Eönwë · 06-06-2008, 03:54 PM

I got Arwen for some reason... hmm...

Aganzir · 06-06-2008, 04:42 PM

I got Aragorn. Don't really know how well the description fits, except for the first sentence which is too true: "You're a totally intense individual."

Honestly though I don't think I could stand Aragorn very long. I would find him boring and he would find me silly and annoying.

Thinlómien · 06-06-2008, 06:07 PM

I'm still a Gandalf Geisha. I don't know what's wrong with me...

I guess Aganzir is allowed to laugh at me, seeing that she's one of those friends I mentioned when posting on this thread waaaaay back in 2005:

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

Oddwen · 06-06-2008, 06:10 PM

I am also an Arwen Admirer - which is slightly odd, as my real name translated would be Arwen.

Lush · 06-10-2008, 06:30 AM

OMG

People still remember this quiz?! Ahh, the magic of the Internet.

I think I'll make another one this week. It won't be about dating, but it will be about... something.

P.S. It's been over three years, and I just re-took the quiz, not really remembering which answers lead to which characters (I remember the general outline of how I did it, but not the details).

I still got Legolas. And you know, my man has always been a total show-off. Particularly with a guitar. So it fits, oddly enough.

Btw, I've noticed that I used the word "totally" a lot while making this quiz. I might stay away from that on latter quizzes, but I make no promises. "Totally" is totally my thing.

Nilpaurion Felagund · 06-10-2008, 06:40 AM

Oooh, can't wait for that one.

TheGreatElvenWarrior · 06-23-2008, 12:28 PM

I scored Rosie... But the only problem is, I happen to be the same gender...

Rikae · 06-23-2008, 01:14 PM

I got Maglor.

Nah, not really - another Gandalf Geisha here. (And yet another reason to use this smiley!

)

Likewise...
