Things that shouldn't but really ick you out.

[substitutingsleepwithcaffeinee]

Has anybody got any weird things that usual people find normal but make you feel v uncomfortable. Mine are I hate dripping water or the feeling of wet cardboard or toilet paper. It makes me cringe wholeheartedly, No idea why.

People filing nails, having my nails files 🤢🤢 I literally want to vomit.

Tinned meat with jelly. Used to always get it in Christmas hampers as I don't remember my mum going out and buying it purposely.
Try and buy different varieties of dog food for this reason (with gravy, loaf etc) but our dog loves the jellied kind. Turns my stomach to dish it out. It even makes a vile slurpy noise.

Oh, and having to take a supermarket trolley just used by someone else.

And the back of my knees being touched

I can’t watch the opening credits of Orange Is The New Black, the close ups of the eyebrows - especially the ones that aren’t plucked properly with regrowth - makes me feel weird.

Touching wet door handles.

The rubbish leftover from fruit (banana skin, orange peel, apple cores, grape stalks, pips of any kind) anything like that makes me want to throw up.

Dd knows much I hate it and is constantly trying to put her freezing trotters on me.

Dp does this
If he ever ends up missing, its not me........

DH using my toothbrush by mistake. It happens regularly and he sees no issue with it

Your still married?

Any advert featuring a 'talking' baby. Such as the current Injury Lawyers 4 U or whatever they're called. Horrible, horrible, horrible, and it's really badly done too. I didn't mind the AA Proud Mary one so much but the IL4U ones are fucking grim, I have to look away.

On the hair front, I can't stand other people's stray hair, particularly if my hands are wet and the hair sticks to me. Don't mind my own, but other people's makes me gip. Also hate the feeling of wet hands with dirt or sand on them. Yuck, yuck, yuck.

The noise of people kissing! The lips & tongue making that horrible noise bleughhh!

The sound of my baby chewing his tummy! It's makes my teeth feel funny

If I accidentally clash my teeth with a glass when drinking

False nails. Any long fingernails creep me out but false plastic looking ones especially urgh.

Used to work next to someone who would constantly drum their plastic nails on the partition between our desks.

Black bits on bananas. I am the least fussy eater you'll ever meet but I cannot eat black bananas 🤢

When somebody uses a "kind" voice to try to coax me: even as a child, I knew I was being manipulated if somebody did it, especially if it wasn't their normal way of speaking. TV adverts often made me shudder for this reason.

Cooking fat on my hands. Ugh, and it's so difficult to wash off properly.

Seeing inside cats' ears or mouths (although I adore cats). I have to look away when the vet checks inside their mouths.

Visible trainer liners or footsies: it looks so wrong. I don't like the feel of wearing them either; I'm a shoes-on-bare-feet-all-year-round person, although I know that's unpopular on MN.

Cooking smells specifically grease can literally make me vomit if I have to cook anything that requires frying I will then zoflora the whole house I even have ‘cooking clothes’ which go straight into the wash as soon as I’ve finished

Hairs

People eating crisps literally makes me sick just thinking of all the grease and flavour on their fingers makes me want to heave and have a dettol bath

Ketchup left on plates the smell barf

Hairy men

The wet changing room floor in the changing rooms when I go swimming 🤮

Also the middle of peppers. All of the seeds give me the creeps

Also pylons and wind turbines. Can't look at them!

People's ears. They look revolting. Of course I just have to not notice them in day-to-day life, but if I focus on them for a few seconds, just yuck.

Men heavy breathing.

Nostril hair.

People rubbing their hands on their thighs.

Warm seats on trains.

Wet toilet seats.

Toe rings.

I also find this trend for having a huge backside and wearing tight clothing very off putting.

That clear jelly on irk pie meat!

Pork pie meat.

The thought of my foot touching any sort of drain in a swimming pool. As in, the changing rooms not the actual pool. I actually haven’t been/taken my babies swimming for this precise reason. The thought of a wet floor riddled with veruca residue. Or old plasters. Or stay hairs. Uuuuugh

Hearing, seeing or knowing about someone flicking one fingernail off another.

@pinklillie just saw your reply after posting mine. Someone gets it!!

People post holiday pictures by the pool and their foot is on that white drain type thing round the edge of the pool.. I literally cannot fathom how anyone could put their bare foot on that.

I just read all these and yes to irregular holes. I once cut into a radish and it was all holey inside. It still makes me twitch and feel skin-crawly 5 years on. It's called trypophobia (DON'T look it up!!!)

Also chewing on wood gives me the heebee jeebies - those environmentally friendly wooden cutlery you get everywhere now I just can't eat with. Genuinely ate an m&s salad with my hands cos I couldn't bear it. I'm not proud of myself.

Also can't taste food off a wooden spoon, and I HATE the end of the ice lolly when you have to get the remaining bit off the stick!
