										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>8. You meet the perfect person. Romantically, this person is ideal: You find them physically attractive, intellectually stimulating, consistently funny, and deeply compassionate. However, they have one quirk: This individual is obsessed with Jim Henson&#8217;s gothic puppet fantasy The Dark Crystal. Beyond watching it on DVD at least once a month, he/she peppers casual conversation with Dark Crystal references, uses Dark Crystal analogies to explain everyday events, and occasionally likes to talk intensely about the film&#8217;s &#8220;deeper philosophy.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Would this be enough to stop you from marrying this individual?</strong></p>

<p>I&#8217;m not sure how important it is that the movie is Dark Crystal because I haven&#8217;t seen it.  I used Wikipedia and get an idea but it seems to be a darker version of Labyrinth created by Jim Henson of the muppets.  It looks absurd and the puppets seem laughable, Neverending Story type characters.  Instead of Dark Crystal I&#8217;m just going to substitute &#8220;a movie that probably isn&#8217;t very good but has a cult following and appeals to some but not all.&#8221;</p>
<p>
This would 100% get on my nerves.  I&#8217;ve already wrote in a previous post that I think finding a perfect person isn&#8217;t really impossible and there are many fish in the sea.  Now, someone constantly relating to a movie that I considered good is one thing, but I have a feeling that a Dark Crystal type movie isn&#8217;t going to be up my alley and this one little quirk would make me eventually hate the person.  I sort of feel like I could make an analogy to me constantly quoting Step Brothers for a phase of my life.  I would think a person would get annoyed with me and just eventually deliver an ultimatum.  It bothers me when CK4 keeps saying &#8220;to be candid.&#8221;  You don&#8217;t have to preface your sentences by telling me you are going to be honest because what about all the sentences when you don&#8217;t say that.  It&#8217;s just something that your brain is triggering because you can&#8217;t think of something better to say.  So if that one tiny point gets on my nerves, I can only imagine how tired I would get about someone referring to the Dark Crystal.  I feel like I should probably watch this movie before I really can make a good answer to this.  </p>
<p>
On the flip side, I would like to think that I can overlook a person&#8217;s &#8220;flaw&#8221; if everything else about them is perfect.  To be candid, I could probably do this without much problem.  If they were going to be attractive, smart, funny, not a bitch, and we got along fine, I really think I could get past this tiny obsession with a movie.  I would think in the back of my head &#8220;how on Earth is everything able to relate to this movie,&#8221; but a deal breaker, all things considered, probably not.  </p>
