    ok so this is my second thread due to the huge response I received from my first thread in after hours ive decided to post here again,

    so what id like to know is what gets under your skin or creeps you out, for example it really gets under my skin when in town, you know where you want to go and you are in a rush, why do I always get stuck behind a group of 2 to 3 people in zombie mode :mad: walking with pathetic tiny baby steps and whats worse you cant get past them for ages :D

    now for something that creeps me out

    Cotton wool and Kevin Bacon.

    Fúcking Kevin Bacon.

    Scientologists are always very creepy, dead eyes behind a mannequin like facade.

    Ventriloquist dolls, with a particular emphasis on the ones that have the workable upper lip.

    Mimes.

    Giant Japanese millipedes, that goes without saying, though.

    I hate cotton wool.

    Love Kevin Bacon though.

    We're the same, but different...

    nothing really freaks me out, im ok with bugs, blood, injuries, vomit, bodies etc... etc...

    lots of stuff gets under my skin, like the oerson who brings a passport form to the post office and fills it out for 25 (literally) minutes with the only teller on, while about 10 to 15 people are queued behind her...

    people moving stuff from where i leave them really pisses me off, im tidy so the stuff isnt just thrown around but they still feerl the need to move somthing.
    spent 3 hours turning my house upside down for a usb key when a family member took it, it was in the same place for 3 months but they still took it.

    My granny, God bless her, once told me a story of how she met her friend while in the Post Office sending out her emails. She thought that "email" was a new fangled word for "post".

    She was awesome!!

    It gets on my nerves when I'm waiting in a long queue and a woman (its always women) waits till the very last second to open her purse, rummage through it for the right money and then pay. Also people who whisper in groups. Unmannerly *****.

    The way spiders move gives me the creeps.

    When deli staff put butter on my sandwich when I specifically asked for NO BUTTER & then throw me a filthy look when I point it out to them.

    Ridiculously slow drivers.

    People who mistreat animals :mad:

    Bertie Aherns sneaky, slimy smile.

    People from Dublin 4

    Cotton wool. *shudder*

    Velvet is disgusting


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,018 ✭✭✭Badgermonkey


    This is creepy, it's the silence (sound of)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,297 ✭✭✭Jaxxy


    People scraping their cutlery off their plates.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,627 ✭✭✭Lawrence1895


    - cars using my cycle path
    - children throwing snowballs at my front-room window when my cat is having a nap on the windowsill

    this list is not exhaustive, but those two are the main ones

    Hair in the plug hole in the shower.

    even worse is girls filing their nails or someone scraping their fingers down a black bord, even thinking of it sends a cold shudder down my spine :eek:

    People who drive stupidly slow. DESTROY!!!!!!

    What creeps me out is babies when they look at you, they just wont stop staring! Freaks!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,995 ✭✭✭Sofiztikated


    Cotton wool balls. If I have to pick one up, or have one in my hand, I immediately get a cold shiver down my spine, with a "uuuugggghhhhhh" shake.

    Anything to do with eye surgery. One thing that's firmly in the "Do Not Touch" camp.

    Things going up my nose. Not marching powder, smart arse, but I've have feeding tubes and stuff put up there, and taken out again, and its just not pleasant.

    They are all in the "Blech" category.

    not just babies, my toddler does that as well, but he always smiles then so not too bad:D

    people spitting on the ground, especially when you hear it coming from the depths of their throat.

    sorry guys- but men moving their bits and bobs around in the pants while talking to you.

    You're on a bet aren't you!!! (If I help you win can I get a cut??)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,811 ✭✭✭xoxyx


    What is it with us weirdos and our aversion to cotton wool?

    Here's one. Did anybody else think that crunching along the snow had a similar feeling to touching cotton wool. I had to repress that thought otherwise I'd have been afraid to leave the house during most of December!

    Moths.

    Bees.

    Fish.

    -Feet
    -Slow walking people
    -People who continually interrupt me when I'm trying to make a point
    -People who give out to me because I'm a slow eater
    -People who continue to argue with you when you've clearly proved them wrong
    -People who ask why you didn't laugh at something they found funny but you didn't
    -People who are continually trying to be funny by making stupid comments yet they end up being ridiculously annoying
    -Young girls who decide to change their own names as if it will make them more attractive or appealing
    -People who park in a disabled spot or take up two spaces
    -People who are all to ask about your information but won't give anything to you in return




    Clearly I have a problem with people
