Because they don't exist. A forum game!

The first poster lists a few things the famous person might be famous for, and the next poster gives their bio before providing a new list.

Example:

Poster A: badgers, Cambodia, cheese

Poster B: Hun Buna (1842-1894), noted for helping feed his native Cambodia during French colonization by developing a delicious local cheese made from badger milk.

Go!

My list: tell me who's famous for cats, chocolate, the beach

Sumiki Tadoyama (643 - 672) was an at-the-time-undistinguished merchant's wife who made a messy, complicated origami work entitled 'cloud', which went unremarked for over a millenium, but we now recognize as the balloons used for Martian descent by the Spirit and Opportunity missions, partially deflated.

Bridgett Anderson; Mechanical Engineer, Inventor, Spark... and cover girl for Lug-nuts Quarterly, premier publication for aspiring gadgeteers and mad scientists.

Her January spread, with her Fire Engine Red hair, that amazing top hat, her devil may care grin, and a 'Spirelli 0-5cm adjustable crescent wrench, with meter long titanium handle, slugging surface, and customized grip' (for better adaptation to crescent-hammer when necessary); was a thing of pure beauty.

Hrm....
Cartography, Kleptomania, and Tangerines

(And who doesn't find a crescent-hammer occasionally necessary, really)
