”You got: Beatrice from “Much Ado About Nothing”!”
“You’re wise, you’re funny, you’re willing to risk everything, and at times you’re genuinely a character to be feared. The audience LOVES you!”
You got: Beatrice from “Much Ado About Nothing”!
You’re wise, you’re funny, you’re willing to risk everything, and at times you’re genuinely a character to be feared. The audience LOVES you!
You got: King Lear!
You value appearances over reality, preferring, for example, fawning over filial duty. So let’s hope you don’t descend into madness and finally die of grief after suffering one tragic loss after another.
I know @imrainmaker! Who’d have thunk it? Off to check out some extraterrestrial beings.
Beatrice too.
But I look ridiculous in a dress.
Wow..so many Beatrice over here..I think you guys should start a club or something..)
Guess what:
You got: Beatrice from “Much Ado About Nothing”!

Maybe Fluther really is an echo chamber?
Two’s company, Beatrice crowd.
Timon of Athens. Bah. I answered truthfully about how I’ve been feeling lately and it is only temporary.
Prospero would be more correct—banished to a remote island while back in Rome despots have taken over—sans his magical powers.
Tilly-vally! ‘Twould Beatrice me too! Forsooth I find myself existentially confused!
Timon was the lead in an obscure play by Shakespeare. He was a really good trusting guy with a positive attitude toward life who eventually became totally disappointed by everyone in his life and died alone in self-imposed seclusion, a bitter old misanthropic bastard.
That’s the kind of guy who gets Timon of Athens. And that is not me at all.
Beatrice does everyone get beatrice?
it was the gin responses wasn’t it??
You got: Sir John Falstaff!
You may be a bit vain and maybe even a little cowardly, but more importantly you’re the person everyone wants at their party. Let’s hit the clubs!
I am not a huge Shakespeare fan, and I haven’t read the Henrys or the Merry Wives of Windsor, so I Googled him:
Though primarily a comic figure, Falstaff still embodies a kind of depth common to Shakespeare’s major characters. A fat, vain, boastful, and cowardly knight, he spends most of his time drinking at the Boar’s Head Inn with petty criminals, living on stolen or borrowed money. Falstaff leads the apparently wayward Prince Hal into trouble, and is ultimately repudiated after Hal becomes king.
Yeah, I can live with that.
Damn @rojo, I was hoping nobody would mention my alcoholic tendencies.
Gin is absolutely a condiment.
^^ Probably a result of choosing Copenhagen. Choose Verona and you will probably get Juliet.
Beatrice here too. I do look cute on a swing. haha
@seek – I got John Falstaff too..) Wasn’t going to reveal unless someone gets it / at the end only!!
I’m Beatrice aka @ragingloli as well. Even though I’m Canadian and that means ketchup is the only condiment.
I picked salsa. The spicy version of Beatice. haha
Another Beatrice for the team. I was hoping for Hamelt though.
Shakespeare would be confused whom to pick from so many of you..and no takers for other characters..)
Hamlet, who is my favorite Shakespearean character.
I am delighted. I expected Macbeth.
“Viola from “Twelfth Night”!
You’re the female all audiences love — you’ve got an infectious energy, and you’re funny, clever, and cunning. Things might get tough for a bit, but good things will almost certainly happen to you.”
I knew going into this that the odds were at least 90% that I’d get a character I am unfamiliar with as I don’t know much Shakespeare and I did. I like this description though, it works.
Katherine from Taming of the Shrew.
You got: Coriolanus!
You’re an impressive figure who’s sometimes too stubborn and proud. You also have a domineering mother. Let’s hope you don’t end up brutally killed by a group of Roman conspirators.
I want to be either Mountjoy the herald or Richard III’s sidekick, Buckingham. But the quiz says Beatrice, go figure.
