Stickers.

When there's no stickers.

😮

This feels targeted somehow

Window stick-ons that don't really stick very well and just come off when it's hot enough outside.

When I do not yet know whether there are stickers.

When I don't have enough space on my water bottle for new cute stickers.

Barbecue sauce.

The word "lush". OH GOD SHUT UP

Other people biting into and chewing an apple crunch crunch crunch aarrggh

People chewing or slurping. I cannot understand ASMR. Makes me irrationally angry where I want to stab a fork into their eye.

But I like stickers. :)

When people explicitly ask for your number to keep in touch and then don’t. Like, don’t ask then?

Edit: it’s common as a social nicety and I wish it wasn’t

Sounds like misophonia maybe?

Definitely.

I have misophonia and absolutely can't stand chewing, but I fucking love certain kinds of asmr. I dont know how to explain it, and I'm extremely specific about the content, but my body just has very strong both positive and negative responses to sound.

Diamond commercials. And to a lesser extent diamonds themselves.

I always end up saying “diamonds; that’ll shut her up!” When they play on the radio.. idk where it came from but the commercials drive me batty, so it makes me feel slightly better.

But I am one!

Car horns. I'd ban them all if made Empress of the World for a day.

I hate car horns.

TIL about misophonia, which I almost certainly experience. Literally an hour ago I felt the usual intense revulsion and dislike towards a family member for sitting near me to eat their meal and making what I perceive as unreasonably loud disgusting chewing sounds. It even mentions that the emotional reaction tends to be stronger with family members than strangers, which is accurate. I'll just leave rooms because I can't stand to be near family who are eating, whereas it's just upsetting to be near strangers or coworkers who are eating.

Some other mouth sounds trigger it too, but not not to the same degree; I've been recommended songs that I had to stop early because the vocalist was making kinda wet popping or clicking noises as part of the song.

Neither are as bad as Styrofoam rubbing against Styrofoam — then just thinking about it makes my skin crawl — but that doesn't fall under misophonia.

Edited typo

I didnt know about the family member thing. Makes sense why mine has gotten worse as I've gotten to know/live with partners. I had to get earplugs for when I go visit my mother now because it gets so bad.

Long nails, especially fake ones. They give me the ick in ways I can't explain or justify.
