Weird things that make you cringe

[Pizzatrip]

Do you have any odd things that make you cringe?

I find the sound of water being poured into a jug or glass really cringe.. it’s so odd. Water coming out of a tap is fine, but it’s that gluggy noise. My daughter had a relaxing video on YouTube today and it had a stream with some twinkly music over the top.. the bloody stream going over a rock was making a similar gluggy noise and making me cringe 🤣.

Anyone else have anything similar and ridiculous?!

My neighbour cleans her doorstep in the morning…I feel unhinged hearing the noise !!

The sound of fire crackling in films, especially when it's in the open, out of control, and the cameras keep going back to it to show that it's getting worse.
I hate that sound.

In a film where they're driving and the driver keeps turning to look at their passenger .. Keep looking forward matey !

I hate the sound of a manual toothbrush on someone's teeth. It is a horrible sound it makes me so uncomfortable. I have an electric one and it drowns out the noise.

Balloons when they are blown up and the noise they make when rubbed. Just thinking about it sends shivers down my spine.

Always remember we went to a wedding years ago and they had a guy going round the tables making various balloon animals for the kids and as he got closer to our table I had to leave the room as I couldn't cope with the noise. I spent the evening either trying to get away from him making his bloody animals or the kids playing with them!!!!

I feel weird just thinking about it!!!

Oh god, me too!

That plinky, jaunty, distorting crap makes me want to rip my own ears off, I stop short of that and angrily turn off whatever device it's made its way onto.

Panto makes me cringe hard.

Whistling

As in whisling a tune. Makes me furious. No idea why. Just absolutely can't stand the sound.

Bitty bed sheets …….. they make me itch I throw them in the bin when I spot they’ve started to get bitty. I could not stay in just random hotels like B&B type incase the sheets aren’t cotton the thought makes me itch too. Hotels abroad are fine as it’s cool cotton sheets!

Polystyrene. The noise makes me want to claw my own skin off.

And the feel of it, gaah! It's horrible, I hate having to unpack something from a box, with the item packed in polystyrene.

And smooth concrete. I'll explain... As kids, we used to hang around in subways, sometimes and the walls were smooth, bare concrete and if I accidentally ran my hand over it, I'd feel sick and dizzy. I've no idea why.

I can't bear to see when men snap their fingers rhythmically, especially if they're walking down stairs at the same time, musical theatre style.

Only men, though. Women are fine. 😅

The words poorly and meal. Also with you on the wine glugging into glass. Cringe is absolutely the right word!

#MeToo @Legendairy
I sometimes imagine someone bursting into song when I'm waiting in the queue at supermarket checkouts... although I'm also listening to the rhythms in the bleeps as barcodes are scanned imagining that Kraftwerk are about to perform.

Haha, love that!

People rustling things and rummaging through boxes of popcorn in the cinema when it goes quiet. I want to run out screaming.
People who talk quickly and use 35 words when one or two would do. Scrambles my brain.

Dog shit on the street. Makes me feel ill.

Me too. I had it removed. Annoying having switch outside the bathroom though.

living overseas for years where light switches are inside the bathroom it took some getting used to. Many wees in the dark 😂😂

Hey mine doesn't seem so weird after reading some of yours 😀😀😀
If I'm walking behind a man and I can see his vpl under his trousers.😨 I have a bit of a cringe to myself.

No doubt I'll see a few in the supermarket today. I know! I know! Just don't look! Can't help it.

Yay, I’m so glad it’s not just me! It’s also way more cringe when it happens on TV than in real life, although my friend poured some water into glasses at a restaurant the other day and it was hideous. Completely agree with people breaking into song in a musical.

@larkstar

why didn't she just stop doing it when you started living together??

she has to be pretty dim (sorry, but...) to not understand.

but she doesn't need to understand, she just needs to accept that's how it makes you feel.

if she cared about you, she just wouldn't do it.

i do it (with inoffensive things, its gross with a cigarette, but I don't smoke anyway) I cba getting up to put every tiny thing in the bin!, but if I lived with you I'd stop doing it.

Sure to upset some but the sound of kids playing outside. The aimless wandering around. Stupid noises. Slapping up and down running. It makes me want to explode and I feel sick

@noooooooo

tearing YOUR ears off is a bit extreme, I'd see his mouth up!!

I wouldn't even tolerate a child doing that.

@DemBonesDemBones oh my word - I hate the word ‘meal’ too! No idea why!

Being asked for my name when ordering coffee. I loathe it. I sometimes just refuse.

It's indescribably awful isn't it! Meeeeeal.

Spoon scraping a ceral bowl.
Also over stirring a hot drink..shut up!!
