Automatic Dislike.

Ever met someone you couldn't stand the sight of- the instant you saw them? For some inexplicable reason you take a dislike to them... the way he/she moves, talks, looks, smiles... everything the guy/girl does is criminal in your eyes.

Automatic Dislike.

I've been trying to find out from people where these sudden hate springs up from. One explanation could be: Like fingerprints, people radiate these waves that are unique to you. It's possible. Some people could be low frequency, high frequency, etc. [Let's not go into the unlikely nature of a non-dynamic-electromagnetic-field-producing body producing these waves.] And of course, we can go back to interference etc...

Can't say I agree. I'd be disliking a lot of people then. Again, I do, but not many people know that. Aw shush. We're not talking about me here. A lot of people who are generally amiable can't stand this particular chap they meet- or just see in the bus waiting at the signal to go in the opposite direction at a four-cross... You just know that if he/she actually met you, you'd want to sock them. That colour of the dress, that lousy perfume or the odoriferous lack of it, the garish shoe that went of vogue about forty years ago, that snobbish look on that spotty face, and oh! the goddamn worst of it all... appidiye Chicago la porandhu London la valandhu oru pitchakara accent la peysuvaangale... just hearing them on their cellular phones can send my blood temperature up into the high forties...

Forgive my becoming bilingual but I think that couldn't have been expressed as well in English.
I have my own theory. I think everyone is simply evil. It's just latent, waiting to spring out. And when you meet someone that brings that out in you... well... that's just your evil pardner, mon, you an' this guy, you destined for each otha', mon.
