Sounds that make your skin crawl

Post by inky »

So..what sounds make your skin crawl? I'm not talking about sounds that irritate you - I'm talking about the ones that really makes your skin crawl and your spine feel like it's shriveling. Kinda like the fingernails on a chalkboard, or the rubbing of styrofoam, or the sound that snow makes when you step on it.

0:10 is torture for me.
I also dread walking on thin layers of snow and the feeling of it collapsing makes my skin crawl aand everything along my spinal cord tingle in a really bad way.
When I was a kid, I couldn't go near the sound of sandpaper rubbing against wood.

o.0 My dad used to own a business, he sold appliances for the home. I had a lot of these stuff in my house, so kinda amuse me that sound makes your skin crawl. As for me, there is no any sounds that crawls my skin, probably scratching the chalkboard with my fingernails (not the sound, the action) would be unpleasant for me.

Man velcro sounds normal. It's like "crouushh crousshh". As for Styrofoam, it's like actually screaming. :x

I really used to hate the sssssshhhhhhhsshhhhhhhh sound that some jackets make (the ones that often look like they would glow in the dark). nowadays I've gained some tolerance though.

Almost dropped the AC when we were taking it out of the box. Styrofoam rub is like the sound version of lotus girl/breast for me. I've worked at hospitals before and I've seen, smelled, felt all sorts of shit (literally and metaphorically) but none of them made me feel truly uneasy. Lotus breast/schoolgirl photo makes my skin crawl and itch. For those who are curious how it feels to have chills when hearing certain sounds, the photos in the spoiler tab might elicit the same effect - or worse.
