What are odd things that gross you out? And I truly mean odd, not something like boogers or public restrooms.

For me, it's seeing a surinam toad give birth via her back really REALLY grosses me out. The eggs hatch IN her back and just pop out! It's so disturbing! It even affects my eating foods like have hole-ish things that resemble the toad's back i.e. cut cucumber seeds. I originally saw the video in freshman bio, lol, I don't go looking for weird videos :).

Am I the only one who is grossed out by something random/odd? Please tell me I'm not...
 
Most condiments gross me out. Ketchup, mayo, any salad dressing, and tartar sauce are the tops. Pretty much the only liquid ones I will use are BBQ sauce, salsa, and marinara sauce.
 
OP: those toads = :scared1: So gross!

I guess my "odd thing" would be, having anyone touch my feet. The thought of having a pedicure done by anyone but myself makes me want to curl up into a ball on the floor and cry. Weird, I know!
 
The sound of somebody chewing loudly. Ew yuck. My DH loves those hard pretzels and I just sit there and scream inside when he eats those things.

Oh and having to clean hair out if a drain or off of a brush absolutely gags me.

And dryer lint.
 

Using a sink that has leftover bubbles in it. Ewwww
 
Metal!! I hate eating off of metal silverware. Even friends and family keep plastic ware at their houses for me. I can't stand the smell of metal like: metal table tops, brass stair rails, copper tables. I actually had to hold my breath in the elevators of the Disney ships. They have a lot brass inside that is constantly being cleaned, so it always smells. :eek: ..Any metal!! ..I don't like the feel of it and, if I hear anything metal scrape on anything else, I pretty much just fall out of my skin into a puddle on the ground.

The big trend of all stainless steel appliances is like a nightmare come true, for me. If I touch metal chairs, rails, etc... I have to wash my hands right away. I also can't eat canned food. All I taste is the metal.

It's soooo bizarre! I have no idea why I feel this way about metal but I'm getting the heebies just writing about it. It's a borderline phobia. Hmmm, maybe I should look it up and see there is name for it. Ha ha!

ETA: Looked it up... Metallophobia- Fear of metal.
 
Coral, as in coral reefs. Can't look at it, it gives me the heebie, geebies
 
I can't stand to eat with bent forks
I will gag if I eat crusted bread. The only kind of bread I can eat is sandwhich
I'm not sure if it odd or not I love to mix my food together
 
Milk. Ever since my college biology lab when I learned milk is modified sweat I have not had a glass of milk once. I still eat cheese and ice cream, but a glass of milk makes me gag. Breastfeeding my two children also grossed me out for the same reason. (But I knew it was good for them and did it anyway.)

I think Surinam toads are the coolest things ever, though :)
 
Well, might is kinda along the line of boogers. I absolutely can't stand when people blow their nose at a dinner table. The SOUND of boogers entering the tissue. THEN the thought of icky boogers SITTING in the tissue throughout the entire meal. EWWWWWWWWW. I just can't understand why so many people do this!!!!

My hubby is so nice. He knows how much it bothers me, so he never does it in the kitchen, at the dinner table, out at a restaurant, or anywhere near where I might be eating.
 
For me, it's bananas. IMO, bananas should only be eaten when they are firm and without bruises. They have to look perfect. Any recipe that calls for mashed or cut up bananas is beyond disgusting to me. :crazy2:
 
Toenails. I am absolutely terrified of and disturbed with toenails.
 
Anything that Rachael Ray cooks on her show. I know she gets oohs and aahs over her food, but it really looks disgusting to me. Maybe it's that squeaky voiceover of hers that makes me nauseous.

Also the smell of hot cooked fish.

But what do I know, I think seeing the frog give birth would be cool. I'm off to YouTube...
 
The puckered ends of hot dogs. I cut them off.
Sitting in a seat that's warm from someone else's butt just getting out of it. My butt gets right back up out of the chair.
 
Seeing someone curl their eyelashes.

Hearing a metal fork scraped against someone's teeth.
 
Watching anyone BRUSH THEIR TEETH :scared:

Seeing anyone lick their fingers... :scared:

Public acts of lewdness :scared: GET A ROOM!!
 
eating in a public restaurant and seeing someone at a nearby table blow there noise, it never fails, as soon as they blow there nose, they pick up the fork and continue eating. SOOOOO gross!

people who smack there lips while eating

people who have no problem digging in there eyes when there contact lens are acting up

getting someone's chewed gum on the bottom of your shoe

Do you see surnam toad's giving birth frequently?? :lmao:

Google "Bot Fly". That'll gross you out as well.
 
Contact lenses - the thought of putting anything in my eye makes me squeemish.
