1) People who can't hold up their end of a conversation. Especially people who can't field my one-liners. If quips and puns puzzle you and your response to them is usually along the lines of "Oh, ok" or "That's interesting", we are seriously going to bore each other, and quickly. 2) People who don't "get" me or what I'm doing, in terms of D/s. This ties in with my first item. What I do is very sensual, and very intellectual: If you're going to play with me, you quite simply have to have a good enough imagination to come along for the ride. Which is not by any means to say that it will all be in your mind. 3) People who act a certain way because they think that's how they're supposed to do it. You have to have patience with this, because new submissives will often start out parrotting things that they've read, and subs who have had a little training may tend to relate to you the way that they learned to relate to a previous Dom. So I usually just explain to them that whatever rule they're following does not need to be applied mindlessly. But few things grate on me like robotic responses. I want sincere, natural reactions.
