What one question would serve as a good dating litmus test?

A singular question that would tell you everything you need to know about a person, so you'd know if it was worthwhile pursuing something with them...
(And none of that "people are complex and one question isn't enough" jazz. I want answers! Dang it.)

    That's easy. I'd hand you a roll of toilet paper and would probably hold onto you so you don't fall off.

  • Are you a Republican or a Democrat?

    It works like this.

    Beautiful woman in a snazzy car pulls over for a hitchhiker and asks, "Are you a Republican or a Democrat?" When he tells her he's a democrat she speeds off, leaving him in a cloud of dust.

    Another snazzy car, another beautiful woman. Same question. Same answer. Same cloud of dust.

    A third car pulls up. This woman is drop-dead gorgeous. She's wearing a tiny top showing lots of cleavage and a mini skirt that is so short that it covers practically nothing. And when she asks him the question he crosses his fingers and says, "I vote Republican."

    He climbs aboard and they set off down the road. He is acutely aware of her sexuality and her good looks and after a couple of miles he says, "Pull over. I want to get out." 

    "Why?" she asks.

    "I've been a Republican for five minutes and already i want to screw somebody."

  • I heard that when I was working in the Sydney comms centre, and I left there in 1979. I doubt if I've remembered it since but when I read this question it kinda popped out.

  • Dear Just Asking,
    I think DragonFly has it...it's the ring-pass-not Q..."tell me about your mom."
    Also sisters, ex-girlfriends...if he is hating on these, it is NOT a good sign, and quite reliably so.

  • Im not saying that there is not going to be a guy dumb enough to fall for that one or the one about your exes. But that's another one that's well known, like that Fight club movie, 
    What's the first rule of dating: never talk about your exes. Rule number two: refer to first rule.  )
