The feel of the unglazed bits on pottery. Urgh. Sets my teeth on edge

What ever salvanian families are made from. That material makes me sick

Moulded polystyrene, specifically removing something from it.

I agree with the unglazed bits on pottery. Horrible.

Stuff that’s feels too dry!
I get looked at like Hmm when I can’t touch certain fabrics, and putting all my spare loo rolls together in the basket makes me cringe so much when they’re rubbing together.

Yes I know I sound like a complete loon Grin

Dried clay on your hands 😱

Insects, specifically spiders, daddy longlegs and other long legged ones.

People who show me their scars. I try to remain calm but my neck goes icy and my stomach turns.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 10/09/2019 16:59

Shock. @fantasmasgoria1.
I’ll have you know. There’ll be no spider hate on my thread. Angry WinkGrin

When somebody's toenails catch on your skin - my daughter and husband are the most gorgeous people in the whole world but when they do this to me I literally dry heave.

@TightPants no, I get you. I have to use hand cream before I fold washing. I loathe newspapers because they are too dry.
