Satoru Iwata, Dead (the musician), Ernest Hemingway, and Vincent van Gogh. We'd all sit at the weirdo table together.

No one as most famous people just had a public persona and in real life were arse holes ,
John Lennon sang about love and peace yet was a wife beater and mentally abused his son ,

Definitely. I can never quite decide if it was a noble sacrifice, or a selfish, stupid temper tantrum. I find it difficult to believe he had any true belief his coup attempt would amount to anything, yet off he went.

Tolkien, Herbert, Adams, Pratchett, Jerome K. Jerome, Wodehouse.
If I were a kid, I'd say John Lennon, but now I wouldn't even let him clean the toilet at the restaurant. Angsty, spineless moron.

I have never heard this. In fact, I thought he essentially lived two lives. When he was in Japan he tried to act essentially like a reincarnation of a samurai, meaning being faithful to his wife and so on. But outside of Japan he'd engage in homosexual acts, probably use drugs, etc.
I must also admit I've not looked into this as well as I perhaps should have, though.

I did not know about Mishima's double life! Thank you for telling me! I am no authority on the guy, so I completely defer to you. I have no basis for my speculation about his use of illicit substances...I guess I heard it somewhere and was too lazy to Google. Your knowledge of him now makes me want to delve deeper, however. Thanks for edifying me, and for sharing your knowledge in such a generous way.
Hahahaha. Are you a restauranteur, Woxihuanni? How did I miss this?

A better God one who does not torture Humans. I know that isn’t really what you were asking about when you mean by famous person.

Definitely Hieronymus Bosch! I´d ask him about field trip to the Garden of Earthly Delights and tell me what are the strange creatures live there. And Pieter Bruegel, certainly.

Any of the great minds, mostly in the scientific community. None of them would be particularly famous except maybe Einstein. He was one of the few "rockstar" scientists.

Many- but would start with Elvis Presley. if I dont get to see him in the afterlife, I'll be devastated.
Janis Joplin. I love her and her music. Sadly she died many years before I was born.
I don't believe in an after life but if there was one I would want to meet her.

Søren Kierkegaard, Piet Hein,
Mainlaender, Sylvia Plath, Albert Einstein, Kurt Cobain...and probably many more I just can’t think of right now.

Bill Gates. A good man. He's older than me but I'm suicidal so I wonder who will get to the afterlife first. Did I sorta miss the point of this thread lol
I like him too, but I feel like he was a massive asshole in real life who I would not enjoy talking to at all. Also had problems with women. Just a no-go all around.
Schopenhauer is my choice, though he had problems with women too.
Right now though, I just want the hottest actress or actor I can imagine right now to share the afterlife with me so we could fuck. :-/ At this exact moment, that's Rosamund Pike. I'm not sure why except that she is hot and has truly fabulous cheekbones.
