LJ Match

[avad]

I had assumed that this LJ Match thing that was spreading like wildfire was a program that filtered through all the interest lists of LJ users to give you links to the people who score the most interest matches with you.
I was terribly disappointed to see the questionnaire...one of my pet peeves is this a or b, true/false crap that seems untrue and vague and useless whichever way you answer. Ergh. I started it out of curiousity and then gave up in disgust. Does anyone know if what I mentioned in the first sentence exists? THAT seems quite simple and logical.

Meh, yeah. I don't know if what you're talking about exists, but my own two cents is that I started to do it too, and gave up in digust at "Height and weight between ___ and ____" ...what the fuck is that? I don't know? I don't say to myself, "oh she's PERFECT...only, an inch / inch and a half too short..." I realized at that point, yes, this is some bullshit singles / dating bullshit. Fuck, I don't even get with people like that;

"our statistical data matches congruously. we should court and possibly copulate." LJMatch, suck my fucking ass.

*thinks a bit* 'course, I am on the comet-tail of being drunk, so I'm sure I sound a bit more teeth-gnashy than I really am, but I guess...I just am kind of irked. Annoyed.

*shrugs*
Kind of.

hehe. I have no problem with the general idea of "our statistical data matches congruously. we should court and possibly copulate." It's amusing, harmless and far better than "you and I are the last people in the bar, this could work".
;) BUT what I have a big problem is with HOW this 'statistical data' is compiled. If it's a questionnaire like that one, I'd be better off throwing a sock to see if I hit someone. The questions don't Mean anything to me and I could answer many ways on each. I'm already in a wonderful relationship. I'm just always open to finding kindred spirits and LJ is a great forum for that.
THIS simple tool I find much more interesting: http://www.livejournal.com/interests.bml?mode=findsim Just for curiousity's sake (don't remind me about the cat) courtesy of darius check it!
