69. Go figure. :)

That must be the "percentage" they give to all the women with whom you're most sexually compatible?

Well, yes, that was my interpretation. Of course, as good scientists, we shouldn't accept such a hypothesis without extensive, uh, clinical trials.

So baby, you wanna come over to my place and find out if p < 0.05?

Well, I'm bloody confused- my own LJMatch profile has you listed as being 102% compatible with me (we'll just overlook that little mathematical stunt of incomprehension there), yet I'm not even on your chart. What is that supposed to mean? That I'd like you lots, but you'd hate me?

...Not that I take ANY of this personally. Also according to LJMatch, my older sister (whom I adore) is 17% less compatible with me than a friend with whom I get into frequent arguments about his attitudes and behavior. Riiiight.

Well, though I agree that the whole "100+ percent" compatibility thing makes the mathematician in me want to throttle the test designers, it is consistent.

See, I have so many adoring fans that my whole test results table wouldn't fit in LJ's dinky textarea box. You're at 102% in my list too, the top part of which is in the LJ entry just prior to this one.

But I also don't take this too seriously. I don't think that they asked questions that particularly revealed true compatibility. For example, did they ask "Mary Ann or Ginger?" Everyone knows that I'm only truly compatible with "Mary Ann".

Ohhhh, I see now. This isn't an updated list; it's your second-string choices. Got it.

Therefore, we are clearly DESTINED TO UNF. Despite the fact that I was not anywhere near alive when Gilligan's Island was still in production; in fact, my parents were both about five when it first hit the air. So um, I have no idea if I'm more of a "Mary Ann" or a "Ginger". Obviously a webquiz on this topic is in order.

UNF?

I wasn't alive yet when Gilligan's Island was in production either. But it was in heavy syndication when I was a kid (every day at 4:00 p.m. after school).

Surely you've picked up the "unf" meme from [livejournal.com profile] hepkitten? It means "to s3x0r someone up". I find myself unable to put it in less goofy terms than that, sorry.

I think I recall seeing it once or twice on daytime TV (in the soap-opera time slot), and after that only on, like, Nick-at-Nite. It was pretty relegated-to-the-past by the time my memory starts. But I'm a young-un.

Thanks. I guess I missed the relevant hepposts.

Too bad you're doomed to leave your current boyfriend for my irresistible charms. You two seem to be getting along famously.
