A TV commercial for the "love calculator"? Come on now!

If you've been around the 'net, you've seen at least one website, page or app called the Love Calculator. On one of the websites using this name, you type in two names and you are told if, by the names of two people only, "Doctor Love" thinks they are compatible.

Countless others ask for a phone number, so that you can get texted the "results" of your compatibility test.

Now, there's a commercial showing a girl and a guy about to get married, and then ending with the girl crying because she didn't take her compatibility test seriously, and he left her.

Maybe Sister Psychic is working for them. How else could Doctor Love know, just by assessing their names, that they would or wouldn't be compatible?

It is up to continuous work (thank you Shay Carl for the lesson) and natural compatibility (or clashing) that needs to decide if two people are good together, not a computer app.
