How can I stop someone from following me on twitter?

Ok, I have my reasons XD
But seriously, I don’t want this person to see my tweets any more so I need them to stop following me. Other than asking them to piss off, how can I stop them from seeing my tweets? x

From the Twitter support section:

Blocked users are unable to add your Twitter account to their lists, and we will not deliver any of their @replies or mentions to your mentions tab (although these Tweets may still appear in search). We do not notify a user when you block them, but because they will no longer be able to follow you, they may notice that they’ve been blocked. Your profile picture will not appear on the blocked user’s profile page or in their timeline. Please note that if your account is public (i.e., not protected), your Tweets will still be visible on your public profile page.
