To dislike some ASMR?

I watched a Tik Tok of two women doing colour analysis and they were both whispering loudly. I had to switch the sound off as the sibilance of the whispering was too much for me.
I found out it was ASMR and it’s meant to be soothing. It was anything but.

I hate whispering, perhaps irrational but it makes me want to punch the person whispering.
its almost as annoying as sitting next to someone who slurps every single mouthful of every single drink they having during the day. I have said I'll record the slurping and sign up for Only Fans and make millions on there but they still slurpy slurp.

YABU to only 'dislike some' of it. I loathe all of it. Load of irritating bollocks.

I like some as it started when I was a child. I used to watch people in the classroom write. I didn't even know what it was called until I was an adult. So writing and watching people organise is my thing with some typing thrown in.

Can't bear whispering, but what I really hate about the ASMR trend is all the fingernail tapping on everything.
I keep getting an ad for a product I might otherwise be interested in, but the advert includes that ridiculously irritating fingernail drumming on the packaging. Complete turn off.

You should watch SRP ASMR . He does eye examination ASMR and is fabulous. Hate the tapping and whispering get me more agitated than relaxed.

I like soft spoken, explaining real things, accurate info, no tapping or page flipping or lights or wavy hands.

Me too. Gives me the shivers and not in a good way!

I detest slurpy eating videos. I don't mind crunching but it's the wet smacking lips and chewing I hate. Gross and bad manners. I enjoy watching soap cutting and magazine flicking videos. I find them satisfying in a way I can't really describe.
