1. Pick a category (or individuals).
2. Give the people a type.
As a spin-off of the other thread, where you place favorite famous people of every type, I decided to mention famous people I think are interesting - either in a good way or a really bad way - and you type them. Not necessarily good people, just fascinating. Could be good, could be bad. That doesn't matter.
