Inspiration for this came from a book we found in the library while looking for something else. It was just so awesome we got distracted from the task at hand and checked out this book, along with a cook book, and two animated Lord of the Rings movies... you know, like you do. I don't actually remember what we were looking for in the first place but apparently it wasn't life or death since I am still here to relay this activity back to you.
The book is a collection of quizzes for couples to take and compare their scores to see how compatible they are... it was complete BS of course which made it all the more fun. According to the book Garret and I are perfect for each other. I'm pretty sure we answered all the questions the same because we both recognized that the questions were completely ridiculous and mostly irrelevant to everything.
examples:
1. Exacerbate is to escalate as ascend is to
a. fall
b. mount
c. depress
d. accumulate
2. Have you had paranormal experiences?
I can't really see how this is going to show if we are compatible or not.
One test did turn into an activity though. It was called "What Does Your Signature Reveal?" and it gave a list of all the different ways to form your letters and what they mean and if you capitalize things and how it slants and stuff like that. We decided to write each other notes and analyze our handwriting that way.
You Will Need:
Paper
Pen
A Partner
Friends (make it more fun)
Eloquence
How To:
1. Everyone take a pen and paper and write a note to your significant other. Make it entertaining, serious, stupid, whatever.
2. Give the note to your significant other
3. Read aloud. (Much more fun)
4. Analyze the handwriting to see what it says about the person you are dating
5. Break up with the person when you find that their handwriting says something bad about them.
Here are our notes:

After reading this book and analyzing each persons hand writing, it is my professional opinion that we are perfect for our partners. Mainly by the amount of fun had during the process of figuring it out. I hope you discover the same thing!
Enjoy yourself!
