Things you can't stand for no reason whatsoever?

[UnChristmassy]

I have a real aversion to silicone. For some reason the thought of it makes me feel like I'm going to throw up, I can honestly get to heaving point 🤢 I've no idea why, it's not the feel of it. I just can't stand the thought of it.

It's the same with bottle tops, like the screw bottle top on a bottle of coke. The tip is always so scratchy and it gives me shivers.

Anyone else have random things they cannot stand but can't really explain?

DH thinks I'm a freak 😂

Loud chewing. I can't cope! Pringles are literally the worst

Labels. The ones on the inside of clothes with washing instructions etc they make me feel sick. Even worse is the big ones on duvets and pillows I have to cut them off when I get new ones. I cut them off of blankets too because it makes feel anxious when my children are wrapped up in them and the label is near their faces .

I also have a weird thing about the bed covers being upside down so button side at my face freaks me out I think this is related to the label thing. And beds without sheets make me feel sick as well my ex used to lie on the bare bed with bare pillows and bare duvet when the bedding was being changed. I would rather lie on a bare floor than a bare bed.

Stickers make me feel sick as well, banana stickers, stickers off new clothes etc. Even worse when they are covered in fluff .

Wooden cutlery. Vile.

People saying babe/bae
Calling dh- "hubby"
Weird /juvenile words for sex organs

Whydoyouask absolutely!

Sniffing.
Eating with mouth open.
Talking with food in mouth.
The sound of nails being snipped or bitten. Or anything to do with nails, really.
The sparkly plastic confetti on tables - my family surprised me with some on the table one birthday and it made me want to cry until it was all gone.

The sound of cutlery on china
Wet changing room floors
Hugging
Hearing sounds from other people's phones. Conversations, music, etc.
Toes
The jagged feeling of the skin on my hands after I've washed up.

Suds. Just thinking about them now is making me gag. Individual bubbles- fine. Clump them together as suds and I am literally sick at the sight and thought of them.

Peanut butter - the way it sticks to my teeth.

DH sneezes, coughs, blows his nose and eats very loudly. Drives me crazy. DS1 has inherited the tendency for the first three.

The music and sounds on TV quiz shows. So loud, repetitive and annoying.

brown / demerara sugar - the the way it keeps moving after you take a spoon out of it and the sickly smell - unfortunately an ingredient in the ham DS makes every Christmas. I am not bothered by any other kind of food or ingredient ( except perhaps liver in my youth where you could see little pipe bits - luckily liver brought my mother out in a rash - well lucky in that we never had it)

Oh god I know I’m weird but...the sound of someone cleaning their teeth! Oh god the thought of the noise makes shivers go down my back 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Just the sound of the toothbrush brushing away against teeth urrgffhhhhh no!! Funnily enough I can clean my own teeth without an issue 😂😂

Bad table/eating manners.
We are working class folk, but we were still dragged up reyt! :)
My husband's aren't great and it irks me that his mother never taught him otherwise. That coupled with the fact that he is convinced, the noise/slurping, scarfing food down like you've never been fed and eating off a knife is perfectly normal and fine..

"Sleeps till Xmas"
Baby showers
Pregnancy reveals
The "me first" culture and not caring about others.

Close up of women's bums on television shows, movies and adds. Advertising bananas? Here's a close up of a walking woman's bum. Want to watch a show where the female chess genius is having a serious breakdown and dancing around her house drunk? Let's throw in a close up of her bum. Anything beach related? More bums. Drives me mad.

Oh and those adds for clothes where the woman is prancing around and spinning in circles and fliiping her hair and gazing at the camera as though it were her lover. Those adds aren't even geared towards men and it's still filmed as though it is. Like seriously who holds their skirt daintilly showing a titillating amount if leg and prances about in nature like that? If I saw someone do that I'd think they needed help.

Ryan Reynolds voice, no idea why but can not watch anything with him in.
When my DC's say American words as we are not from there and also when they something in a more pronounced accent than they really have

I'm tempted by 'teddy' bedding but I'm also afraid I will be a sweaty mess in the morning. I've compromised by getting white brushed cotton bedding. I've just bought a 200TC set. The previous set was also 100TC but the fitted sheet has gone rough and bobbly.

I have teddy bedding. I thought I'd be cooking in it but it just feels like normal bedding only 10 times nicer and softer. The only time I woke up a sweaty mess was when I was poorly abs had a slight fever. It's fine the rest of the time. I've just taken mine off to put my xmas bedding on and I'm missing it loads

Those yellow dusters (the feel)

Touching cats (I am not afraid of them just hate touching then)

I hate cows (again not afraid, just think they are evil)

@IntermittentParps

That bloke Rylan (?) Presents It Takes Two. His face! I can't work out what I'm looking at.

Blocks and things (yoga blocks etc) made of that chopped-up and moulded-together foamy stuff. Make my skin crawl.

I agree about Morrissey, but I think there are plenty of good reasons not to be able to stand him.

I'm exactly the same about Rylan. I have to keep watching his adverts to try and work out what's wrong with his face. My dd says it's me but obviously I can now say no it's not.

Wearing tights and that feeling when your legs brush against each other. Makes me wince.

Your poor mum but that really made me laugh.

The sound of cats purring. I have no idea why as I love cats and I was brought up with them
It's just when they purr it makes my hair stand up.
Cameras moving towards someone's eyes on TV, until they're really close up and going through them sort of thing. It actually makes my avert my own eyes whilst cringing.
That clicking noise that sometimes happens when people are asleep.
Breath, click, breath, click.
It makes me want to shove a pillow over their faces.

Velour. It gives me the heebies, but I do hate the feeling.

Tomato sauce (ketchup). It really gives me the boak. The thought of touching it, or having to smell makes me physically recoil, however I can eat it with French toast, or a roll with bacon and fried egg.

My dh bites the metal fork or spoon when he eats. It drives me bananas 🍌

Toe rings, ankle bracelets and saying crimbo instead of Christmas.

The sound of cutlery scraping on a plate
The sound of chalk on a blackboard
(This makes me teeth hurt, have others ever experienced this sensation?)
I'm a trypnophobe so I hate clusters of holes such as lotus seed pods
