I absolutely loathe sticking my hand in the crisp packet - will stick 'em on a saucer, napkin, anything to avoid the greasy sensation of oil on my hands and wrists

Balloons popping -or people squeezing balloons until they pop -the anticipation of the bang really puts me on edge.

I do it all the time at work, I'm sitting at my desk and people just appear behind me and I jump like a horse ! They all think I am a loon but I'm convinced they creep about stealthily

When my daughter was teething and she would scrape them together....bleurgh!!

And the sound of knives scraping on plates, the squeaking shrieking scream, bah bah bah!!!!

Anticipating a balloon popping, and toast popping out of the toaster always makes me jump!

Also the blow-on-the-eye pressure test at the opticians.

My neighbours toddler is a shrieker you can hear it randomly throughout the day goes right through me and I'm a wreck by his bedtime

Moths. Was playing on my phone late last night lay in bed. DH pissing himself at me jumping around the bed because a bloody moth kept fluttering around my ears and face then disappearing for a few minutes. Then as soon as I settled back down again it came back. Bloody hate the fluttering c**ts

Topseyt · 10/09/2016 19:00

I hate balloons popping too.

Otherwise, perhaps if I am aware/worried that there might be a spider in the room.

MrsJayy · 10/09/2016 19:02

I'm the ninja moth catcher in my house I can snatch them out the air every body in my house hates them.

PricklyHodgeheg · 11/09/2016 16:59

Slugs. Also anything to do with plumbing and plug holes makes me shudder.
