Things that weirdly give you thrills ?

[Cheddarsmedders]

Pulling up weeds by the root - gives me shivers. I can’t even walk past them in the street.

I also love pulling up weeds by the roots, especially ones that are in the lawn rather than a flower bed. If I had a kid free day and the weather was nice I would happily spend it in a weeding trance!

Pulling out a really long ingrown hair.

Logs. Mine were delivered this week. The sight of them all stacked up make my heart sing

Testing that reflex spot on my knees shiver

Peeling off nail varnish in one go
When the scissors slide through wrapping paper. I once saw a tweet saying that they assumed that's what doing heroin felt like and it made me laugh.

Pulling out nasal hair. The pain is such sweet torture

Buying posh food in Waitrose and taking the reduced stickers off

Pulling the handbrake in the car without pressing the button in, I love the noise it makes!

Voting

Yessss!! To the coffee jars.

Being the first to use a jar of Marmite, nothing else matters, it has to be Marmite.

And is there anything more satisfying than managing to pull off a long strip of wallpaper?

Coming round the corner to school and seeing my favourite car park space is free. It makes my heart sing

Pulling up a huge weed complete with massive Harry Potter style mandrake roots...
The crack of thunder above the house...
The final pencil stroke to a finished piece of art work..
Delightfully, squeezing a spot!!

A brand new stiff magazine.

The smell of books. Old or new.

Clenching my hands under slightly too hot water.

I used to enjoy changing down or up the gears in time to music. But have an automatic now.

Touching cotton buds

Certain towels feel really weird and make my body hair stand up

A certain way if I touch my nails

Washing the pots in water that's very very hot.

All you weed pullers, moppers and ironers are welcome at our house any day

I get a weird frisson from pulling at my eyebrows and eyelashes and feeling a little 'ping' when one comes out. I also bite/pick at my nails. I think it's an anxiety thing.

Descaling kettles, my cream Russel Hobbs is a bit bashed on the side with a dent in the spout but the inside is a gleaming fortress of smooth, mark-free silvery perfection.

I took a pouch of oust and unleashed it on my MILs kettle that had so much build up hot drinks were like slush puppies.

gives me the fanny gallops

Peeling skin from the lips. Great if it comes off in one huge section.

Peeling skin after sun burn. Haven't been burnt since I was a child but still remember the satisfaction.

A really hot bath.

Using those oven cleaning bags and watching the dirt run off the shelves.

Scraping the car windows.

Turning on a loaded dishwasher.

Washing machine's good too, but the dishwasher REALLY does it for me.

Cleaning the vacuum cleaner out. I’ve only done it once (a few weeks ago) but I’m still thinking about it. I nail scissored all the hair off the roller bit, cleaned out the obvious bits. And then I found a small plastic flap that I didn’t realise existed! It must be a special filter thing for the nozzle. It was rammed with a solid mass of dust, hair and several bits of Lego. Pulling that out was just the best. It had a similar satisfaction to squeezing a massive blackhead
And now my vac works like brand new. The sad thing is I’ll have to wait another couple of years for a really good lump to build up again

I have long hair and when I wash it in the shower a few loose hairs slither down my back and congregate in my bum crack. When I feel a tickle there later I love shoving my hand down the back of my trousers and pulling the long hair out from my bum.
