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.

Funfairs and amusement arcades, even fruit machines...I think it's the combination of music and lights.

Opening a new jar of coffee and stabbing the film on a microwave meal get me as well .

Putting bicarb, vinegar and boiling water down plug holes
Picking spots
Driving through a city with the windows down on a hot summer night - the smell of excitement and asphalt
Yes to plane takeoff, I love it! Going fast on anything actually - riding a motorbike through Saigon at 2am combined this and my above-mentioned late night city thrill, was excellent

The sound of boots crunching on gravel drives. It always makes me feel something lovely and exciting is about to happen.

Suspension bridges. Every time I see one I feel a bit excited, like spotting a boy you have a crush on outside school hours.

Having some nob tailgating me, then as he goes to overtake, SPEEDING UP to stop him, and watching him fall back behind me (where he belongs!) 😈

Seeing people overtake 20 cars in about 5 minutes (in a desperate rush to be in front of everyone,) and then meeting them at a traffic island 10 miles up the road.... Then feeling the sense of glee and satisfaction, when you realise for all his rubber-burning, wasting petrol, and extra wear and tear on his car; that he never got any further than the people he overtook 10 miles back.

Having some twat knock me out of the way to beat me to the shortest queue in a supermarket, (resulting in me joining the one next to them as they have 90 items in their trolley!) and then ME getting served before them. (Ditto for McDonalds!)

Pulling weeds up by the roots is very satisfying though, as is popping a zit or a boil.

Having a massive poo.

Pulling all the hair out of my hairbrush.

New stationary. Yum yum!

Popping bubble wrap.

Tweezing hairs

Throwing something into a bin and getting it in first time.

Pulling nail polish off a nail - all in one go.

Rawking up my nose (when it's dry,) and pulling out crusty bogies.

Putting a shit load of washing out - like 3 loads - and after 6 hours in the sun, it's 100% dry, and smells divine!

I do get a thrill out of seeing the bulbs (and also seeds) that I planted, turning into beautiful flowers, but I don't think that's an odd thing to like really is it?

Also love the feeling when you take off in a plane, and also when you go over a big (smooth) bump in a road (like over a canal or stream,) a bit like being on a roller coaster.

I also love discovering a fantastic new series of something, (on netflix or amazon or catchup on demand) and getting immersed into it, and binge watching it, like 3 or 4 a day.

Also love HUGE thunderstorms.

And I love stroking and fussing my purring kitties...

Watching 20 or 30 two pence pieces fall off the edge, on the 'tipping point' machines in the arcades.

Pressing the button on the vacuum cleaner and watching the cord whizz back in. Still seems like witchcraft to me.

This is pretty cool. Ditto the metal measuring tape... Pulling out 3 or 4 feet, and then pressing that little button, and swwwoooooooosh!

Cat's paws. They're so astonishingly beautiful.

@LavendarGreen

It's all fun and games with the tape measure until you accidentally catch your thumb on the tape when it's whizzing back and it gets sliced in two! 😂😂😂

When my cats cuddle together. It makes me want to cry.

The Hoover lines in the carpet. The world is right again after a good Hoover. Hate hoovering though 😂

Opening Pringles

Popping the foil cover on a new jar of coffee

Listening to ASMR on YouTube!

Ah yes I know what you mean about tailgating. I get quite a buzz when people do it to me. I love pissing them off!

i enjoys nibbling candles,mainly Yankee ones

i love the smell anyway but the taste is 100x better

Walking down a quiet street at night wearing high heels .... makes me feel like I'm a spy. Or a prozzie.

I’m a picker and squeezer so anything disgusting.

Squeezing spots, blackheads, boils anything like that, picking scabs, peeling sunburn (not had it for years but still) cleaning my ears, cleaning kids ears out.

We have a water machine at work where you lift the massive bottles on and pierce the top, I also like it when you have a new tube of cream and you have to take the top off and pierce the foil with the bit on the lid.

Taking the fluff out of the tumble dryer filter. It’s the best.

I didn't think anything makes me feel this until I remembered that when I look up at the stars on a clear night it makes me come over a bit strange, sort of shuddery and like I'm on the verge of bursting into tears.

I also liked it when I had a tooth taken out and sticking my tongue in the gooey hole.

I used to love picking off my DCs cradle cap. My DH is a dream come true as he has psoriasis so I can pick the flakes from his head.

Getting rid of things. Trips to the charity shop, the tip.

Just lovely.

@OpiningGambit absolutely. Me too. Just dragged a massive bag of stuff to charity shop. What I love even more is when the charity sends me update of money they've made out of my stuff through their Tag The Bag scheme. It's hundreds of pounds over the years. So satisfying!

That creaking crack noise when I open a brand new hardback book.

Bursting whiteheads. I have them on my jaw line and neck they are usually red from my squeezing addiction, It looks like a shaving rash.

No one has mentioned that thing when you fart and it bubbles up through your foof - so now I'm worried it never happens to anyone else! 😂

The first teeny weeny shoots coming through in seed trays on the windowsill in spring - particularly brilliant with plants that you know will eventually turn into veg.

Taking in washing that has dried outside - the smell.

That moment a week after using those footner things where all the skin on your feet starts to peel off.

The massed ranks of jars full of jam/marmalade/jelly you've just made.

@Bearbehind

I’m with you!
