Like Mike B, I’m going to have to go with a Scientologist. A lot of other crazy things can be dealt with by slowly chipping away with reason, but Scientology is one cult I just don’t want to mess around with.

You like someone a lot…

But then you find out the person is _________.

– an uninformed person who insists on arguing about that which he has no knowledge of.
– inclined to blame any mood fluctuation on mental illness (even “normal” people have bad moods, so don’t blame my bipolar disorder for my cranky moments!)
– intent on impressing me by name dropping (whether people, material items, books they’ve read, etc).
– treating me the same way he’d treat a particularly stinky piece of excretement.

Smoker.
Negligent pet owner.
Pompous ass.
Treats waiters (and etc) like crap.
Doesn’t want kids.

And though it isn’t completely a dealbreaker (it’s really close), if they’re already divorced by 23/24, it’s definitely a warning sign.

I’m intrigued by the “single mom” one. Would you prefer she were married?

A “believer,” a Republican, a smoker: no can do.
