What gives you the ick for no particular reason ?

[Bigtrip2026]

When I was younger I would have loved to have had longer nails but sadly they used to break easily so they've been short my whole life. Odd now then that when I see those long talon nails ( incompatible with real life imo) that they totally give me the ick....like a small repulsion on sight. 😖

What's your irrational 'ick'?

oh god, yes!!
and thongs as well. Boggles my mind that there are people out there voluntarily giving themselves wedgies....
Honestly stick a thong and a pair of scrunch bums on and you just look like your fartbox is set on suck instead of blow!!LOL😆

I am not a big fan of Fake

I find refreshing there is a lot more natural influencer,
Who i have seen recently on youtube a few times,
never seen her before,

who has acctractive Bob of Gray hair Doesn't care what people think of having grey hair and showing photos 🤔 of what she used to look like etc

and showing herself what she looks like whithout any make uk on

Long nails that are undone and dirty. Frizzy neck hair on both sexes. Smokers of a certain age who have brown teeth. Finger tattoos. People who are proud of how drunk they get. Bum cracks. I hate bum cracks.

Tattoos
Facial piercings
Bad teeth
Ridiculous large fake eyelashes (subtle ones can look lovely)
Eyebrows the size of slugs (cabin crew had them the other day and she was so pretty except for her silly eyebrows)
False nails
Crocs

Oh and football shirts

I must admit I caved to buying a pair of crocs, I refuse to wear them out of the house but they're so handy for a spot of gardening or putting the bins out, I give myself the ick 😂

Tights and leggings being worn as trousers.

Fine for the gym, not fine for work.

Men in flip flops or vests

I wear thongs because I don’t want VPL but.. yeah they’re a bit repulsive 🤢

Oh yes and when parents let their young boys have the bottom half of their head shaved and the top half long in a pony tail or bun 😩

Are you referring to Nikol Johnson? She has a cosmetics line.
I'm a fan, she is an advocate for fierce ageing.

I hate
loo brush eyelashes
awful micro bladed/tattooed brows
false nails
filled lips
bleached hair.
Cropped tops unless you are seriously toned and slim.
Perms on boys.

Lots of tatoos, the ones that cover whole limbs, facial piercings and those ear stretcher things where people stretched their earlobes.

Those giant scarves that older women wear, usually with a black tunic top and black wide leg trousers. Can’t stand that ‘look’

Those ankle length cardigans (or coatigans which sounds more like a Dr Who villain to me!).
I just really want to point and shout 'its a dressing gown!'. Ive never seen anybody outside of a model photoshoot wear one and look good.

Bare feet?? As in, literally no shoes? Is this a thing? I've never seen this (thankfully).

Yes - what happened to the people with stretched ears? I'm assuming the holes didn't shrink back (maybe I'm wrong?), but I never see anyone with them anymore.

White capri pants.

Clogs

Hairy ears or hairy anything really🤣
wrong shade foundation with and obvious line around the chin/neck
bogey hanging out of the nose
nasty toenails 🤢🤮

Beards

Pointy shoes

Weaselish features

Photos with tongue sticking out

Ignorant attitudes to others

Obsession with money

Motorbikes

Coarse jokes

The same phrase used repeatedly to fill a silence

Inauthentic attempts to be a funny extrovert

Overly close relationship with mum

Victim mentality

Describing exes as psychos

Gamers

Scowling with ugly dogs

Teeth picking

Pro Brexit or anti vaccine

Too much enthusiasm too soon

Drinking heavily

Backpacks for work.

I know they're so much better for your back and I can appreciate the lovely dr martens ones but just no.

Me too! Makes my spine shiver. Ugh.

My fashion icks:

Navy blue shoes or handbags.

Round or oval buckles, I only wear square or rectangle.

Black jeans that are faded in a bad way.

Shoes with a flared heel- I really, really hate these. I won't buy shoes with a perfectly up and down heel in case it's secretly flared.

Green wide leg trousers or jumpsuits, I always think of Gumby.

Pleather, especially rebranded as vegan leather.

When people don't cut the X stitch from the vent of a new coat.

Probably many more.
