Things that give you the willies

[Isshebeingserious]

Inspired by another thread, what are things that give you the willies?

My biggest one is houseboats.

desperately hoping other people get the willies too

Foreign objects in the body... I kept trying to get my earlobes pierced growing up, but every single time I let them heal over because I HATED the sensation of putting earrings in. I still remember that horrible feeling when you have to 'twizzle' the studs around in your earlobe during the first 6 weeks to make the hole work properly. I'm the same with needles just because I hate feeling them slip under the skin

People blowing raspberries - can't bear it, makes my forehead go all funny.
Kirk Douglas
Bendy nail, boke.
Slimy, wiggly, sucky things from the sea
Spiders, obvs. I get that thing with the tomato tops, too.
Huge clanky crushing machinery. Examples include locks, the ditch clearing things near rivers and the machinery inside a dustcart.
The wet sleeve thing.

Places that are really difficult to access, where no rescue effort could get to you.
The top of Everest, deep cave systems, deep in the ocean.

Sigh. I've found my people.

Red and yellow petrol stations (green ones are ok)
Seahorses
Dolls houses
When it rains really hard and you get those bubbles in the puddles
Polystyrene

Oh oh, those men who make themselves into living dolls.

Avocado stones! I get irrational thoughts that I will put it in my mouth and choke on it. I think it's because they're so slimy and slippery!

I know this is probably quite common but heights. Luckily they are something 99.99% of the time you can avoid.
I had an awful dream last night. I was going up in a lift of a block of flats.
The flats were about 2000 ft high. Anyway as we were traveling up the lift door opened and right next to it there was a wall of only around 3ft high. That was all that was there to break you from falling. Anyway DD was sitting on the floor looking over this tiny while being around 2000 ft up.
Ironically though I love looking at views. When Visiting anyone in hospital I'll often to go to the top floor get out of the lift and look out of the window.

. Just why?

So nice to wake up to all these willies!!

Sheep eyes - definitely!
Birds! Bendy nails! Willies all round

What about when someone is staring at you and you didn’t know they are there and you look over and see them suddenly? WILLIES

What the hell?!?

Old, big furniture. My granny had huge mahogany wardrobes and chests of drawers and they always freaked me right out, even as an adult. The chests of drawers came up to my shoulders as a 5ft 4 adult. Also in the bottom of one of the wardrobes was a giant, very old bible. That gave me the willies, too.

Touching food that's been wet e.g getting bits of food out of the kitchen plug hole if someone's rinsed a bowl out and it's spilled 🤮

The skin that forms when hot milk starts to cool

Parrots, evil fuckers. The way they look at you, and they can talk! Evil evil little bastards.
Ear stretcher things, I don't know why but when I see them I can smell a sort of fusty mouldy smell coming from them, I know it's in my head but it makes me feel really queasy

People’s feet when they have big bunions or thick, yellow nails.

Someone with greasy hair wearing wool.

I have to wash my hair every day because even a hint of grease makes me feel oddly cold and like my teeth will clack together.

Just the thought of someone filing my big toenails 🤮🤮 I can almost feel it scraping and makes my full body cringe.

Stairwells with large windows where you can see the ground like Lister hospital.

Long finger nails on men - yuk!
Those life-like baby dolls people collect, in fact dolls in general
Large crowds
The underground
Having to walk through a field of cows (I’m a dog walker and live in the country so quite a common occurrence for me!)

Feet - doesn't help that I have the ugliest feet in the world but hate feet in general to look at or to touch them or have them touch me.
Being underground - the idea of potholing makes me shudder
Eyes - have to wear glasses as I cannot stand the idea of putting contact lenses in + the stories I've heard ( this could be a myth ) that the lens can slip behind your eye. And corrective eye surgery with that metal brace like thing that holds your lids open sends shivers down my spine

Does anyone ever get that feeling when you’re about to drop off to sleep and it feels like you’re shrinking/the rooms getting bigger?

I get the opposite when I'm dropping off. I feel 'big', like if I opened my eyes my hands etc would be huge compared to the objects in the room.

Prawns
Natural sponges
Wind farms (I don’t know why/I know they’re actually great/the sight of them completely freaks me out).
Dog turds when they’re bigger than average people poo.

Catheters, honestly give me the forceps, episiotemy, EMCS again, anything but a catheter, just the thought of someone knocking the tubes (not envy)

Sea creatures, fish generally are fine but slimy things like sea slugs send a shiver down my spine.

This thread is riveting. Really fascinating. I don't like seeing those odd ear piercings where a metal ring has been put into the lobe and stretches it out . Urgh, feel squirmy at the thought. One of my lovely neighbours had, one for a couple of years, now thankfully gone. Horrible.

The name Georgia. I have synaesthesia and the colour and taste of the name Georgia is absolutely nausea inducing. Sorry, Georgias and parents of Georgias - it’s nothing personal.

Georgina is fine by the way - there is a hint of lemon in there that makes it ok.
