3 membersBBCAmerica’s Anglophenia has this nifty “Which Companion Are You?” quiz up right now. The whole time I was taking it, I kept muttering to myself “Anyone but Rose. Anyone but Rose.”
Of course I got Rose.
The stupid thing cheats, I’m sure.
I wonder if it gives everyone Rose? Go take it and report back.
I should have been Rory, damnit. Or River. But mostly Rory.
Sidenote: I just realized this is my 300th post. YAY ME!
I don’t even know what this is…
…but it’s TOTAL BULLSHIT, MAN.
*giggles*
Hee! BUT IT IS, HEATHER!
I did it earlier today, and I got Rose, too!! But I kind of like Rose…whatever you may say about her 
I think everyone gets Rose. It’s a conspiracy, I’m sure of it.
I just did it again, randomly clicking on answers and I got this:
Your result: Congratulations! You are Amy.
It may be because of the way you grew up, or your natural lack of patience, but the key thing with you is that nothing and no one gets in your way unless you want them to. Sure, you’re inquisitive, you like to travel, meet new faces, try a few new experiences, but woe betide anyone that messes with the people and things that you value the most, and that goes double for people you trust that have let you down. (Click on Amy’s name above to read more about her…)
Maybe you’re more like Rose than you’d care to admit?
Hm. I won’t admit it, though.
Each to their own… 
i initially read that as “Eat your own.” And I thought “How un-Rose-like.” Because I got Rose, too, and I know I would never eat my own. Unless it was my own chocolate. But not people. Never people.
I’m glad we’ve sorted this out!
(But thank you, this cheered me up immensely…not that I needed cheering up, but still…it made me laugh 
)
Funnily enough, I just took this after a friend posted her result on FB. We were both Roses! But honestly, I’ve never seen the show (I know I know), so does Rose suck or what?
I KNEW IT!
Well, I think Rose sucks. And 2 of my boys also think she sucks. But she’s kind of a fan favourite.
She’s only nineteen, and she works as a shop assistant, and is kind of…I don’t know how to use an American word for this…I think she lives in housing commission (I don’t know if you have that in America, and if you do, what you call it – basically, she and her family are poor and live in a flat paid for / partially paid for by the government)…so, long story short, I think she’s a very original character, and I love her for that.
Can I ask why she sucks, sj? Is it her hollowed out cheeks and wonky teeth?
Well. Part of it is because I don’t care for Billie Piper, so I am predisposed not to like her. I don’t care that she’s from a lower income family, what bothers me is that she treated Mickey like crap (one of the reasons I don’t particularly care for Amy, she’s quite selfish as well) and was just…I don’t necessarily want to spoil for people who are going to watch soon (like Heather D), but I did not care for her entire character arc. At all. If I had been NEW to Doctor Who when they restarted the series, she would have made me quit watching, even thought I <3 the Eccleston.
Fair ’nuff. And don’t get me started on Eccleston. Why they only gave him one season is beyond me. Gah.
Apparently that was all him. He didn’t care for the notoriety that came with being The Doctor. 
This upsets me.
I got Rory, quite possibly the best option for me.
JEALOUS!
Well, huh. I got Rory. And no idea why I took the quiz, since I’m several Doctors behind the rest of the world.
You cheated!
But srsly, you should catch up. 11 is one of my all time favourites.
I didn’t even know who Rory was! Now that I do, I need to catch up. Side note: at least I’m a Slytherin. Which makes me wonder how the heck I got this Rory dude.
Hm, I’m a Ravenclaw, which REALLY makes me wonder how I ended up with Rose.
Hmm. I’m Rory! I love him but would prefer Donna. Donna is the best. (Maybe this test is like a reverse Sorting Hat, you know, like when Harry said “Not Slytherin” it put him in Gryffindor, except in this case you said “not Rose”, and it went, “Rose muahahaha”.)
Now I’m almost positive that’s what happened!
Dammit! I too got Rose. It’s a silly quiz, anyway, because many of the answers weren’t even close to what I’d *actually* do in that situation.
If I were to describe myself as a contemporary Who companion, it would be Jack. But a bit more gay.
I’m trying to imagine what that Jack would be like, and it’s not necessarily a pretty picture.
I don’t watch this show (yet, someday! promise!) but the new woman on “The Office” was on it? Huh.
I took the quiz because I love you and I am also Rose, whatever that means.
HAPPY 300 POSTS SJ!!!!!
Yes, yes, that was Donna! She was fantastic!
You are NOT Rose. I knew this thing cheated.
I’m Rose, too. And I also did some random answers and came up with Amy. I was hoping for River because she was awesome on ER.
I think you will like her when you start watching.
Rose or River? If you say that I will like Rose, I am just not sure what I will do. Considering how much you hate her and all.
River! You will like River!
I hope you don’t like Rose, but there’s every possibility that you will.
Wow. That last sentence. It hurts.
I took this last night and I was Rose too! My boyfriend got Rory and I had a nice laugh at him.
Everyone is Rose!
Yeah… Rose… do I look like a freekin’ Rose?
Maybe…
I took it and it said I was Zaphod Beeblebrox. What do you think that means?
That YOU ARE HERE, obviously.
EXACTLY. Zaphod’s just this guy, you know?
Yay for Hitchhiker’s references!!
I got Rory! I was literally running around yelling with joy, it was lovely. My mum thought I was crazy though…
HAHA! That is an appropriate reaction!
I thought so!
I figured I would be Donna Noble, but no.
While occasionally lead by your heart, you have an enormously practical head on your shoulders, and are extraordinarily loyal, which means you can be relied upon to fulfil any task to the letter, no matter how personally inconvenient it may be. Guns, bandages, science, amorous playwrights from the past, there’s little you can’t handle.
I got Martha. I liked her OK, but she was kinda boring. My husband *really* liked her, so he’ll make fun of me to pay me back for all my “Freema Freeman” comments. Not that my TV-crush marriage would be any better–Gillian Fillion…
Hee! Gillian Fillion!
I’m Martha, apparently, though I have to admit I’ve never watched Doctor Who and know nothing about any of the characters. (For shame! I know. :/ ) Her description does sound a bit like me; she’s quite the clever girl.
~Nikki
I (unlike some, and I’m surprised to learn this) actually like Martha, so I think that’s good. She’s a doctor!
BTW, a much-belated CONGRATS on 300th post! That’s incredible.
Gah. I got Rose too. Arrgh!
