The time has come to conduct a scientific experiment. I need to come up with a List that calls in something other than the perfect partner so that I can test the efficacy of the concept itself. But what? It can’t be something inanimate, like money or, say, a perfect dress. It needs to be something with at least a degree of agency, some ability to choose whether it will cross my path and—paths crossed—how it will interact with me. And I also need something that has a variety of traits that can actually be enumerated in a list.
An experiment but not a very scientific one. (e.g. small sample size, observer bias, texas sharpshooter?)
