jackMy "what C++ operator" test is still unwritten. So is "What prime number are you."
But I got messaged out of the blue by two okcupid girls while I was logged in. Is it just me or is that kind of backward?
And then I did some browsing of it's suggested matches. Reading just the favorite book line is interesting. Lots of people like LOTR. Fair enough. Several like Robert Jordan or Terry Goodkind. Fair enough, it spotted the right genre. One liked Larry Niven. Score! Two liked "anything by Dan Brown." What did I do to deserve this? OK, they're not *bad* and a if relationship can survive diametric religious and philosophical views... but still[1].
Update: Though there was at least one person listing Dostoyevski and Dan Brown. *shrug* Apparently my disclaimer was truer than I knew :)
[1] Actually now I come to think of it, I remember someone else compaining about the phenomenon. I think the reaosning is that a bestseller is always a fairly safe choice if you want to say you read, but don't have many details.
