Baby talk!

Bigotry, especially racism.
Petty jealousy.
Stupidity.
Condescension.
Active addictions to drugs or alcohol.
Men, males, or people who actively emulate the most offensive straight male cultural norms.
People who don't like motorcycles.

Unibrows.......

You scared me for a minute-- I thought you wrote unicorns were a turn off to you, and if that were the case, I'd really have to reevaluate our friendship.

There is always that one special person that can pull something off in a way no one else can. Frida and Groucho Marx LOL.

not looking me in the eye when talking to me is a big turn off
not having my sense of humor which is pretty dark and twisted
not interested in the world around them
not wanting to take on the status quo

but mostly, in my previous long term relationship and growing up I lived in a world of smoke and mirrors. I need to have someone be direct with me.

someone who doesn't say as I am talking, I'm not done, let me finish
belittling me
being emotionally abusive
If I even have a hint of that...I am out of here

I like to have fun. If someone can't be silly it is a turn off.

at this time in my life we must be sexually compatible. no more lesbian bed death, haha.

if they don't like that I have kids, it is a negatory (is that a word, no but I like it)

I am with you on the eating with their mouth open and smacking their lips. That's a hard one for me to relax around.

Mean people, ignorant people, people who use texting "shorthand", (U no..cnt be bothered to rite out there hole thought) oh and the whole "there, their, they're" thing. People who can't be bothered to use spell check.

I used to be right there with you on the "there, their, and they're thing." That used to bug the hell out of me until a funny thing happened. I started to write on the internet. Then I would re read things that I had written, and wouldn't you know it. I do the same damn thing. In fact, I did it today in a post. I couldn't edit it anymore. I am well educated. I fully know the difference and how to use each word correctly, but alas, I make mistakes. I am not that careful when I am not writing for work. The internet is play time. I got over it.

As for my Instant Turn-Offs: treating strangers poorly (yes, I watch how a person treats the food servers), bad odor, long toe nails. Oh yeah, intolerance of differences (as in different cultures etc).

NEVER that. On the contrary--I find unicorns very erotic.

When she showed up wearing a GPS ankle monitor.

I am more turned off by those toenails, frankly. If you have an ankle monitor--at least show it off in style.
