Things that make you go "urgggh." (GTKY)

blindvictory · September 2011

So I was just watching AFV and they did a montage of kids playing with/pulling their loose teeth. I had to change the channel because it makes me feel incredibly panicky and ill. A little girl was messing with her loose tooth in church and I thought I was going to pass out.

What's a "small thing" in life that gives you the shivers? (I know "bugs" is a pretty common one, but I also happen to hate moths. They're disgusting.)

Roaches (*shudder*). When I lived in the South they were so big and awful and would come out of unexpected places!!

MonroesMisfit · September 2011

When people crack their bones, like their necks, backs, knuckles, etc.....it makes me shudder. I hate that noise!

Oem617 · September 2011

Spiders for sure!

Also people that walk barefoot in public. Gross, put some shoes on!

farmerlynda · September 2011

Nail clippers (when someone else is using them). Or when DH picks at his toenails, which he sometimes does instead of using the clippers (and which is even worse).

lol I don't really go out in public, but around the outside of the apartment or such I am always barefoot, same with in the house.

BearWombat · September 2011

Well, there's the usual (especially roaches)... But I have one weird one...

I can't stand touching dry, smooth paper or wood. It's like nails on a chalkboard, especially when my hands are free of any natural oils, etc (like right after you wash them). I also can't handle it when I hear other people doing the same. My boss likes to "underline" things on papers, etc., when he's talking to me and runs his finger back and forth really fast, and one time I nearly passed out from it.

Yeah. I told you it was weird.

Penguin1318 · September 2011

Our bearded dragon (Puff the Magic Dragon) eating a pinky always creeps me out. For those who don't know what a bearded dragon looks like here's a pic

ETA: pic sizing

RaeDae29 · September 2011

People who smack their gum and chew with their mouths open. SO gross!

selder25 · September 2011

Spiders and bloody noses. I can't handle seeing someone with a bloody nose.

brookelynpaisley · September 2011

Zippers. I cannot stand the sound of zippers, especially old ones. It's like nails on a chalkboard.

I guess that is okay. But I really meant, like in a store. It is not okay to go in Target with no shoes on.

sunkaisia · September 2011

The sound that gets made when you scrape ice off of a windshield in the winter. Drives me nuts.

Mine is kinda similar to yours, I can't stand it when people clean chalkboards with a Kleenex/paper towels or their hands, it's so dryyyyyy.

Can I add the fact that you have to take your shoes off to go through the airport security line? I'm totally a barefoot-on-the-beach kinda gal, but having to take my shoes off and walk on what is surely one of the grossest dirtiest carpets ever really creeps me out.

Nikko Blue · September 2011

Medical shows where they actually show them cutting the person - or movies where it looks real. I can't look!

discobush · September 2011

Carnies. Circus folk. Nomads, you know. Smell like cabbage. Small hands.

Also the sound of teeth on silverware.

It's a baby mouse... uhhhh it creeps me the eff out. There's no blood or anything but still.

Rejufsovelem · September 2011

Pretty much any of the new Goar movies like Saw or Hostel. I just can't stomach them anymore.

RobinR91 · September 2011

You know when you step on a spider, ad BIG fat crunchy one and you can feel it POP under your shoe? That's the textural thing that skeeves me out. I can't stand that feeling. I also connect it to food...I'm a vegetarian, and anything that has that tough outside and rubbery inside gives me goose bumps. Even if its not meat....I have consistency issues.

LollipopsAndCrisps · September 2011

Using anything gritty, like a nail file or sandpaper, makes me nauseous and very dizzy. I hate things that grind against each other. Even the sound of someone else filing their nails has made me get sick before. So gross.

This drives me crazy. urgggh!!

PenelopePond · September 2011

All the normal creepy, crawly stuff: spiders, snakes, roaches... Alligators also gross me out. I'm sure I'm afraid of them, too, but for the most part their just creepy.

ChloBub · September 2011

Rats and mice. I'd rather have snakes or spiders loose in my house than mice. Ick!

I also really hate the sound of packing tape being pulled off a cardboard packing box. Weird, I know. But it kinda gives me the creeps!

naturalallure · September 2011

The noise my dogs make when they're cleaning/licking themselves... I hate to interrupt them, but it's beyond irking and I really can't handle it when it stretches on for more than a minute!

THIS! I hate hearing people eat and seeing what they are eating.

kellyrn9956 · September 2011

People scratching dry skin with long fingernails.

When it's really humid out, and tons of bugs swirl around an outside light. Ew!

When my basset hound licks the carpet. Ugh. I keep her off of carpet for the most part. The vet says it's the same reason dogs eat grass - she's trying to get the hair up to settle her stomach. Groooossss!!!!

To the spider people, I have the grossest story! We got home one night and found a HUGE spider on our front stoop. DH stomped it, and (I sh*t you not), hundreds of tiny babies flew out. We stomped them as much as we could, and haven't had a spider problem. But that was one of the creepiest things I've ever seen!

I used to work for a scrapbooking company, so I know EXACTLY what you mean. I hate when I accidentally scrape one of my fingernails across thick paper like cardstock. It's horrifying.

angielayne926 · September 2011

I hate the sound of other people brushing their teeth. DH walks around the house while he's bushing and it makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I'm fine when brushing my own teeth, it's just when other people do it. weird...

KLN1179 · September 2011

I hate cotton balls. They give me cold chills!

MrsBlindLove · September 2011

Used band-aids Ick!

Styrofoam

Locker room floors

Tub drains

So so many more.

MissMusic:
People biting their fingernails.
Also, feet in general.

This is gross. DH does it sometimes and I have a reaction of hitting him for it.

Honeybee2813 · September 2011

I can't stand when people bite their nails, it absolutely disgusts me!

That's mine too. Just thinking about it now makes my teeth hurt.

TAGSL710 · September 2011

styrofoam...especially when pieces squeak against each other....gag!

ElinJ · September 2011

So many that I can't stand were already named. The sound of people eating, my dog licking himself... Those are the main two.

That's like me and scratching paper or hearing someone scratch paper... THE WORST!

GermanGirl2007 · September 2011

When people take off mittens with their teeth it makes me want to vomit. I can't even talk about it, it is making me feel queasy.

This! I just saw one yesterday and it freaked me out (though I'm not afraid of other bugs). Also, I get grossed out if a fly lands on me or my drink.
