Signs You And I Won't Be Hanging Out.
Ever look at someone, and there's just something about them that tells you, immediately on sight and with no further information needed, that you'd never spend time together?

These are the things that make me say, "Okay, then. That's pretty much...
...all I need to know about you."

For instance, in the categories of:
- Personal Appearance - If you still wear your "Frankie Say Relax" t-shirt or roll up your shirt sleeves around a pack of smokes, that's all I need to know.
- Social Skills - If you pick, scratch or spit while on a dinner date (or elsewhere in public), I need no further information about you. We aren't hanging out.
- Transportation - If you drive an old muscle car with giant mag wheels and a jacked up rear end, I'm fairly certain you and I will not be friends.
- Miscellaneous - Some "all I need to know about you" things just defy categorization. Share your own on the Miscellaneous page, or any other page. ·
