Rhymes with 'bone', 'phone', 'tone', 'cone' etc

I've just successfully triggered 50% of the internet. Be gentle, it's my first time.

Most people pronounce it like "con". Kinda annoys me too tbh. But I think it's a regional thing.

Cambridge University researched it (groundbreaking research, I know):

Didn't have a good command of the English language over text. There isn't anything more irksome than 'hey hun wuu2 how r u'.

Scone thing apparently doesn't bother me enough as my partner tries to tell me scone like a cone is wrong. And corrects me all the time which is more irritating than his s"con"e

But I'd definitely not date someone if I discovered they'd come on here and ever done one of those irritating age gap posts. Firstly, can you not read? There's so many of them you don't need to make a new one to get an answer. And often it's creepy guys wanting someone to say it's fine to sleep with jail bait. - which is a less shallow reason.
If they disliked gaming :colondollar:

Also if they said they don't like chicken :angry:, I actually met a guy (not for dating purposes mind you lol) who said he despised chicken, my jaw went down to my knees. He must have been deprived of the London Chicken & Chips experience. He wasn't even feeling Nando's! I know this sounds all too unbelievable...

What are reasons you wouldn't date someone?
Give the most shallow reasons if you want or general reasons... List them all!

I wouldn't date her if she was a smoker or if she took drugs. Or if she was dead, probably self-explanatory really...

Add a few more:

Bad teeth
No ambition in life
Lazy
Too religious
Fat

Discuss.

I REALLY couldn't date a girl who really supported Liverpool lol. They are the one team I can't stand lol. I don't know why, always despised the club, the people from there and everything about Liverpool as a city and as the place too.

Most people from my college class is going to Liverpool uni next year, but Liverpool is the one place I won't even look at lol.

I'm a Man United fan too :smile: big Man United supporter :smile:

Is a slight gap between the front teeth as bad as crooked teeth.
Wouldn't date him if he had small feet... You know what I'm saying:wink:

Wouldn't date her if she had a facial tattoo... I couldn't look at her saying anything:angry:
They're younger than me

There was one girl from Liverpool who I got close to a few months back... didn't work out because of how insecure I was. She wanted me, but I thought she only wanted to fck me. So I just cooled off her, then my mate made me realise she actually did want me for me. But we never talked again after I rejected her so just awkward now and don't talk to her at all anymore (I don't think she was into football even though she was REALLY hot).
