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 😂

Long finger nails on men.
Long finger nails on women - especially ones filed into a point and decorated with a load of glitter and crap.
Makes me feel sick.

Just to add, people who play with their long finger nails.

Merry Christmas everyone...

Oh the long pointy fingernails! Do you want to look like some kind of glittery badger?

I get all twitchy when someone greets me with a jolly 'You aaallriiight?' WTF. WTF. WTF. Don't you bloody assume how I am. Hello! would suffice.
Conversation hoggers, for obvious reasons.
Most unreasonable of me I know, but 'baps', 'rolls', 'sarnies' etc. etc. ad nauseam, instead of 'sandwiches'. I realise those are all regional and perfectly fine, just bloody grate.
Even more unreasonable of me, I wince every time when someone refers to lunch as tea. Again, regional and normal. Only ...aaargghhh
Don't get me started on pronouncing 'h' as 'haitch'. Toe curl.

Bad table manners; smacking lips; slurping; 'bon appetit'; holding cutlery the wrong way; eating with mouth full; stuffing mouth with too much food which falls down.

Leonardo Di Caprio, the sight of his face makes me annoyed and feel sick at the same time, I recoil if I see his face, it makes my skin crawl, it’s been that way since I first saw him........totally irrational.

Words like, authentic (as in yourself), plant based etc

Polystyrene
Buttons
Anything wool ( just writing it gives me the herbs 😩)
Chalk on chalkboard
False nails
Cutlery scraping on plates

Oh and that Dr in Call The Midwife everything about him grates. The way he talks and his weird mouth. Ewwwww 😰

I have a phobia of baked beans and buttons. No idea why. I'm not alone in these phobias though.

I too have a phobia of baked beans. Well any red food actually but particularly baked beans and tomatoes. Maybe it’s ARFID

Google trypophobia. I'd offer you a link but it will give you images of what you fear. Google carefully.

Polystyrene, if someone handed me a polystyrene cup I would fall into a deep hole of imagining how awful I'd feel if I bit into it. (Actually no I wouldn't, I'd drop it on the ground in a panic).

Sandpaper, nail files, thinking about people sanding things, chalk, chalk paint, the gross feeling on my hands if I touch newsprint, unglazed cups and bowls, terracotta in general, thinking about biting wool, using any item immediately after it comes out of the dishwasher (feels like a waste of a wash if it doesn't at least go into drawer/press first), the feel of dry dirt on car pain, thinking about dry dirt on car paint, taking the backs off picture frames (keep thinking I'll get the little metal thing rammed under my nail), paper straws (can taste them), egg water, under cooked egg whites, baked beans, rice pudding, any large, contained crowd I can't just walk out of (stadiums especially), having my hair loosely tied up, ehhhhhhh, everything really apart from smooth surfaces. Those holding cells in police stations look nice to me, all cold, smooth surfaces with not a potential dry noise to think about.

The thought of accidentally biting down on a piece of tin foil (if it were stuck to my Kit Kat, for example), against my tooth filling, makes me cringe. Metal on metal is the most horrible sensation.

Adults who use the word yummy, can’t stand it.

Lewis Hamilton.....I really don't get why I don't like him but he deserves a high 5 to the fave with a chair in my opinion.

Merry Xmas.....is it so hard to say/write Christmas?!

Fab.....an ex friend overused this word around me now I hate it with a passion.....hate the word too

People saying ‘brought’ instead of bought. Drives me nuts.

People making noise when they eat.

People fiddling with their teeth/nose, makes me want to be violently sick. Go somewhere private, euw!

When someone calls him/herself a pretentious name eg Angela Strawbridge trying to call herself ‘Angel”. Bugger off, your name is Angela, you fool! (Note Hilary Baldwin recently, behave!)

When people mistakenly say they BROUGHT something from a shop rather than BOUGHT

But if you want to glaze carrots, rounds are lots easier. 🥕

Lush is very Welsh or very Geordie, commonly used in both places. ‘Aah, that’s lush, man’ meaning that’s lovely works in both areas.

The word “sarnies” instead of sandwiches.

A kitchen sink with bits of food left in it.

Walking past a dustbin lorry (I hold my breath).

The thought of a plaster floating towards me in a swimming pool.

False teeth... not good as I was always on the hunt for 'lost dentures' when I worked in a large, elderly care home.

Scratched knives when you're eating with cutlery makes me shudder and a stray hair on my neck drives me ape

Wonky pictures on the wall aaaggghhh I've actually straightened pictures in other folks houses. 😵🤭

When my clothes catch on door handles, I feel actual rage

giant eyebrows.

My older brother.

Mrs flipping Hinch!!
And people generally who post pics of their toilets and cleaning products on Instagram. I deleted my account off there last year and I’ve no regrets.
