Well, when me and someone else are both watching the same movie or TV show and I have try and explain what is going on every 3 seconds, either because they are too impatient to wait for the plot to work itself out or they have no idea what is going on.
We are both watching the same thing with the same characters and yet somehow, I know I'm going to wind up explaining everything for 30 minutes after the movie is over.
Nope, shoot me in the face.

Someone said 'OMG,' for me, it's a big deal, I don;'t like it, I know that God knows a girls heart, but, say it around me, for any reason at all, and, I just don't think one should say it, I just don't think it's very easy to stay close to God as one should when saying 'Oh my God' for things. I know it sounds cool, it has flair, pzazz, in the girl world. But, yeah, I don't know your heart, so, I'm not judging you, I'm just saying how I feel, it's not salvational, is it? That's between you and God, I just mention it as a something that is rational for what I can't stand about my date when a lot of the world , girls especially of that world, will think my thinking irrational on this subject.

Some things that annoyed me about this girl that I definitely did not want to date:
- Hitting female friends who paid me a little attention (popping them on the knuckles when they passed by in the halls).
- Showing up uninvited and unannounced outside the boarding house I lived in at 7 AM on Saturday while I was trying to sleep in, calling my name and saying "I love you".
- Hitting my fiancee.
- Spreading some kind of false rumors about me making promises to her.
- Stripping down to a slip in public gatherings.
I think there was some mental illness involved.

Hmm...
Personally, i can't stand a potential date who:
- wears too much cologne or perfume (i get dizziness and tension headaches with strong scents, very fast XD)
- constantly wets his lips (even though he might say i look delectable, justifying the gesture? XD i just find it pretty gross. Why won't he just use a lip balm or something if his lips are drying up??? I'm most certainly NOT lending him mine XD)
- grunts or clears his throat as some form of mannerism (i'd refer him to the nearest drugstore for a lozenge or mucolytic. Heck, i'd even write the prescription for him, if i have to! >.<; )
- wears nail polish (i know there are metrosexuals out there, but if he wears nail polish that isn't colorless, i'd call it a night, even before he says hello >.<; )
- sweats too much, even though it's not hot, humid, or he didn't just run a marathon (i'd refer him to a dermatologist for botox shots for his hyperactive sweat glands first?)
- gives me an uncomfortable stare. I personally love eye contact. I find a guy who would look at me as if he's "piercing into my soul" as quite fascinating and exciting at the same time i'd try to do likewise!!! But, if a guy looks at me like he wants to "have" my soul (like Chucky in Child's Play wants one XD), or as if he's using some kind of x-ray porn vision, i'd either slap him hard, or dial the number of the nearest asylum. Then i'd excuse myself, and then run like the wind XD).
- gives me silence. Seriously, i'd hate silence on a date. I'd understand the first few minutes of awkwardness and shyness, what with the nerves and all. But if said awkwardness and shyness and lack of any verbal output is present for at least 70% of the time, that date is doomed XD and i'll surely regret having to dress up so good, just to meet said guy, who doesn't even know what to say, or what to ask me.
- is too serious. I am certainly NOT looking for a time to discuss politics, academia, financial depression, and the like EXTENSIVELY during a date. I didn't say yes to go out, just so sit down on a debate or lecture. And i most certainly DON'T get impressed with a person who seems to know everything. I'm not looking for a scholar or sage. I'm interested in discovering the person behind all the superficial things, and i want it to be a very lighthearted, refreshing, and fun process. I want a good mix of laughter and insight.
- is too loud. Sure, i hate silence. But i don't want a guy who can't tone down his voice, and speaks like he wants all the people around us to hear his "announcements" >.<; it would make me feel like he's not satisfied with me as a sole audience (i'd hand him a mic, and tell him to go on the stage, if he can't be tamed XD).
- is too self-conscious. Like constantly checking his face on the mirror, or checking out his breath repeatedly, his teeth, his clothes...or, he's too wary of his responses to me. I appreciate that he wants to look his best, and make a good impression. But if he doesn't show me that he has self-confidence, well, i'd find it a big turn-off. If he asked me out, and i said yes, he should know that i actually like what he's shown me of himself so far, and that i trust that he'll keep being real and comfty with me. Otherwise, i would have definitely turned him down without a second thought.
- is too confident. As in pretty arrogant and full of himself. Nope, he won't do. I don't care if he's a pretty boy, with lots of cash, an impressive job, and a nice car. If he gives me the vibe that i should be thanking him for choosing me to date in the first place by virtue of his unequaled hotness, i'd walk out on him. I don't need a guy who'll bring me to a fancy restaurant, or a ride at his personal jet or helicopter, or show me around his mansion, or make me listen to his talk about all the celebs he's been with, his numerous awards and credentials, his royal ancestry, and so on. No. This gal ain't shallow. Even if he looks like Bruce Wayne >.<;
- doesn't know how to enjoy food. Afraid of getting his hands dirty. Orders nothing but a salad XD
- is disgustingly shameless. Chews with his mouth open. Like picks his nose in public, belches or farts loudly in public, scratches his pits or butt, and then sniffs it >.<; EEEWW.
- doesn't like dessert (i'd find a guy who doesn't like at least one kind of dessert to be extremely weird XD he must have his taste buds cursed, or something...)
- is afraid of dogs that don't look vicious. Phobias are not acceptable, for whatever reason XD sorry!!!
- is afraid of the dark (how are we supposed to watch a movie, or play Silent Hill together with the lights off if he's like that? XD)
- screams like a little girl (if he's doing it for fun, i'll let it slide. But if it's his natural tendency, uh...maybe he needs voice lessons first? I dunno XD)
- wears a wig (unless it's actually a date at a cosplay convention XD i dislike fakeness, A LOT)
- wears colored contacts (those don't impress me, at all >.<; i really, really hate fake appearances. Again, if it's for cosplay, it's the only time i'll accept them XD)
- is too fond of pranks (i can take jokes, and the occasional prank that isn't too brutal XD but if it's all that he wants to do, and in public, no less, i won't take it too kindly >.<; )
- is stuck with the program, and doesn't know what to do when it's scrapped. He better be resourceful and spontaneous if his original plans fail. Or at least have a back-up plan. 'Coz if not, i'm heading home XD
- isn't pleasantly weird and crazy. Self-explanatory XD if he isn't like so, he wouldn't "get" me at all. PLUS, i'm sure he might become scared of me at some point poor thing!!!
