Really?
You think a woman who is into Hello Kitty or teddy bears or dolls is attractive?
Cuz I sure as hell don't.

Which has already been proven in spades...if you pay any attention to history/current events.
And everyone knows the MSM is bought, paid-for, and has a huge agenda.
I don't know - it sounds like a little bit more than that. It is the FIRST thing he mentioned. And to even think of putting it on the list at all - well - I don't want to spend my time arguing with someone about conspiracy theories and Obama's birth certificate and such.

The items that would make me really into you are: 1, 2, 3, 13, 17, 19, 20

Strikes against you are #s 8 and 18
It's possible for someone to be interesting and non-conformist...WITHOUT being nuts or weird. The guy the OP is describing comes across as a crazy loon to me. There's a reason why certain things and beliefs in life are considered "normal" and "acceptable", culturally and/or socially speaking.

I'm a guy, and #1 would be a likely dealbreaker if I met a woman like that. The opposite extreme would be just as bad (i.e. someone who is gullible to the point where she believes damn near everything the government and media spoon-feeds her). I like people who are generally open-minded (but still able to be decisive and have opinions) and willing to critically think for themselves.

Comparing Yu Gi Oh cards, a complex strategy game, to a merchandising franchise, is a pretty silly comparison.

You sunk my battleship.

Listen, I will play a video game now and then, but it's not going to show up on my 'top 20 things about me' list.

Thank you.
Green light means go. Red means no. Yellow= ambivalent.

What do I think about him? The conspiracy theory part tells me we wouldn't really click. First off, conspiracy theories (NWO) have an element of antisemitism. Attending uni is great, but if you look at history and power and control, there is more to the picture than just finger pointing to a group of people. And, I'd question his ability to see through the B.S. of those who feed and perpetuate those myths.

I don't date others who support oppression of any kind.. but am kinda contradictory myself- because I still eat meat.

Overall- he's a cool guy; I just think the conspiracy theory part would turn me off a bit. Perhaps if he understood the implications of globalization and understood the philosophy of power and control and saw it in that context? Maybe

What would you say to someone who put playing football or baseball on his top 20 things about him/her. Would that bother you or no?

How would you feel about a woman that put "playing with Barbies" on her list?
