Just get rid of him!

If George had been more in the frame of mind to analyse the looks of his future father-in-law, he might have seen in this one a sort of shuddering loathing. But he was not in the frame of mind. Besides, Sigsbee H. Waddington was not the kind of man whose looks one analysed. He was one of those negligible men one pushes out of sight and forgets about. George proceeded to forget about him almost immediately.

(from The Small Bachelor, by Sir Pelham Wodehouse)

It should be noted that the "analyse" spelling - with an "s" - used above is as printed in the book. That is the British spelling of the word.
