Person:
That girl is a real callery pear. She's
hot, but has a really bad personality. I'd stay away from her.

Me and that
guy didn't really turn out
well. We both thought that we would be great together, but it just turned out to be a callery pear.
Situation:
(1) We were gonna just
make out, but things got a little to far so I had to back out. I didn't want it to end up in a callery pear.
(2) I really wanted to take that class, but the teacher was so bad that it ended up being a callery pear and I transfered out.
