Tell me something unusal that really grosses you out

[LynneSin]

For me, I cannot use/eat anything that uses that cheap wood you see with popsicles or those cheap spoons that came with ice cream cups. Just touching it, eating with it or even thinking about it grosses the bejesus out of me.

Right now I'm all freaked out thinking about those things.

[HopeHoops]

1. McFood

Okay, that may not be "unusual", but it still grosses me out. :puke:

[MiddleFingerMom]

2. "old folk" toenails

.
The THICK, very yellow, curved claw/talons that very old
people can get.
.
And I seem to be in danger of developing that myself. One
of the first things I'll do when I'm back on my feet is get a
podiatrist appointment and maybe a referral to a foot-care
clinic.
.

[Kali]

3. go see Dr. Shapiro

he's good (took care of a gross toenail for Mike)
he also writes good LsTTE on religion (he's an atheist)

[Kali]

4. coffee grounds

between my fingers

something about that damp woody gritty sensation :scared:

any kind of soggy bread - just touching a wet crust in the sink drain gives me the willies:puke:

[mwdem]

5. I'm the same way!

I'm getting the chills just thinking about popsicles. I never understood why, but I can't stand for them to touch my teeth.

[dawg]

6. And I chew the sticks.

Go figure.

[LynneSin]

7. Eeewwwww - YUCKY

:puke:

[dawg]

10. Even worse....

I chew corndog sticks! :rofl:

[Demoiselle]

8. The realization that a tick is crawling on my body.

...They feel like no other insect, and having grown up in tick country (which is pretty much everywhere, come to think of it) I can recognize the particular tiny little multiple crawly feety feeling thing immediately.
EEeeeYIKES, yuck yuck yickety yuck.

[Brickbat]

11. I can pull ticks off my kids and Mr. Brickbat, and even the dogs if it's not engorged.

But if that mofo is crawling on me, I lose it. And if it's engorged on a dog, I will pay anyone cash money so I don't have to look at it, much less pull it off.

[geardaddy]

30. Heh heh heh

you said "engorged"

[Brickbat]

9. I can't stand cotton balls that creak. Mr. Brickbat is grossed out by little things, such as

earrings, left on a sink. He can't touch them. If they've been splashed on and are in a puddle of water, it's even worse.

Also, I hate feet.

[dannofoot]

15. Cotton balls...creak?

Okay, I'm completely unnerved by the thought of this. I don't want to go in the bathroom. Please explain.

[Flaxbee]

26. I think perhaps "squeak" is a better word?

I don't think cotton balls creak, but they squeak... doesn't bother me, though.

[Arugula Latte]

25. Feet are gross. Toenails especially ... Ew.

[quakerboy]

40. That is the stuff my nightmares are made of

Literally. Thats what made my dreams nightmares as a kid. Vampires chasing me around my parents dank basement, no prob. Being lost and alone in a scary world, no prob. That oh so wrong cottonball texture... urk. no. just no.

[Tommy_Carcetti]

12. Gum.

I hate the smell of it. I hate the look of it. I hate the sound of it. I hate it with a passion.

[LibDemAlways]

41. I can tolerate it, except when someone I'm sitting at a

table with takes it out and sticks on on their plate. Just totally repulsive.

[Jamastiene]

13. The smell of metal.

I hate it. Nothing makes me quite as nauseated as the smell of metal. I also hate to hear when metal objects scrape against each other.

[applegrove]

14. Masogynists gross me out.

[Jade Fox]

16. mustard...

the color, the smell, the taste.....gross!

[dannofoot]

17. Terrific....

...Let's serve up some creaking cotton balls sauteed in a mustard cream sauce....

[Jade Fox]

19. Cotton balls DO creak....

and I they gross me out too!

[Maccagirl]

24. Mayo for me

n/t

[LynneSin]

28. Whatever you do - if you visit my hosue don't look in the fridge

I have about 8 differnt types of mustard in the fridge. I love mustard!

[GalleryGod]

34. Me too, Lynne!

Overdue "Hi!" BTW...:woohoo:

[blue neen]

18. When I was a kid, I used to help my mom hang clothes outside on the clothesline.

We used the old-fashioned clothespins that you pushed down onto the wet clothing and clothesline (not the kind with springs). They made a very peculiar sound when pushed down, felt horrible, and smelled funny.

To this day, I get shivers just thinking about it.

How about wooden spoons? They're okay after they've been seasoned for awhile, but when they're brand new...gross...can't even think about it.

[Lindsey]

20. When I lived in TX they actualy had hugh roaches that flew. One

even flew straight into my hair. It was absolutely disgusting. Also rats completely freak me out.

[Lasher]

21. Holy creaking cotton balls, that must have been awful.

I hate roaches.

[geardaddy]

31. Yuck. We had those when I lived in Taipei.

:puke:

[LynneSin]

22. OMG talking of grossed out - I bought this unpainted Adirondack Chair...

it was like putting together some arts project with popsicle sticks

:scared:

I'm hoping once I paint it - it won't feel so gross.

[azmouse]

23. The sound of someone chewing their fingernails.

ewwwww...

[Tikki]

27. Weirdest thing...the last couple of years can only drink..

cold drinks through a straw and can only eat with a short tine fork or the small teaspoon. :shrug:


Oh, well....
Tikki

[geardaddy]

29. *gag*

Me too. It's like nails on a chalkboard for me.

[Liberalynn]

32. Bad smells of any kind

[geardaddy]

33. Cilantro

it tastes like soap.

[Nuclear Unicorn]

35. BF told me when he was an army medic...

...they would sit in the first aid thingy drinking apple juice from specimen cups.

I still get urpy just thinking about it.

[HillGal]

36. Toenails, people who have long toenails totally freak me out. NT

NT

[Amerigo Vespucci]

37. The two people in this photo have had sex together...

...and who knows, maybe they're still having it in one form or another.

[skygazer]

38. People sharing utensils with their babies or toddlers

I can share an apple with my horse - she takes one bite, I take the next - but if I see someone eat off the same spoon that a small child just used, it gags me. Don't know why but I couldn't do it with my own kids either.

I have no problems sharing a spoon with my cat, though.

[ohheckyeah]

39. I had a neighbor who used to wipe her daughter's

snotty nose with the hem of her skirt. Talk about gross.

[Arctic Dave]

42. Really, really filthy homes.

You know, the kind were they don't wash dishes or take out the garbage. Pet feces everywhere.

[UTUSN]

43. Movie scenes of people barfing into toilets, hugging the toilets, faces down there

And for some reason, moviemakers seem to LOVE to depict this.
