Listening to a drill rig auger bit grind against caliche* :::shudder:::
It’s like nails on a blackboard multiplied by infinity!!!
:eek:
*thick, massive, rock-hard accumulations that cement gravel, sand, and fines of a sediment, producing a dense and impermeable layer that resembles fresh-water limestone. Such massive caliche layers (calcretes) are common in deserts at depths of a few centimeters to about 2 m. The layers are a few centimeters to several meters thick
The feeling of something wooden, like a popsicle stick, touching my teeth (bad). I know this doesn’t seem bad to most people, but I find something very, very, very oogy about the combination of wood and teeth. Sometimes I shudder when I see someone else eating a popsicle.
Slight hijack, but I need to second this. Big time. Have almost a phobia about this. Okay, it is a phobia. Argggggggghhhh need to stop typing about this now its making me freak out!!!
There are a couple of chords voiced so perfectly in Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet (not in the love theme - in tense, quieter moments surrounding the Capulets and Montagues theme), they make my eyes roll back into my head. Every time. Even when I was performing. There are a few parts of a few pieces that can do that to me, but I distinctly remember shuddering for those perfect open chords.
Blistering guitar solos [good]
Cold iced tea after coming in from a long hot day of outside work [good]
The thought of tsunamis and other water-related disaster [very bad]
Ticks [very bad]
Spiders [ohgodverybad]
Dental work [worstofall]
Just thinking about being on top of high things – bad! Being up there, even worse. Thinking about the time I got stuck on the side of a high rock is making my palms sweat this very minute. However, I do like high rides at amusement parks, go figure.
Vanilla-bean ice cream on top of a warm gooey brownie = good shudder.
Metal against my teeth, or anyone else’s teeth for that matter. Sometimes when my husband’s teeth meet against his fork I shudder and yell at him to quit it. Going to the dentist is the absolute worst. I just lay there trembling in shock while she scrapes my teeth with a metal stick! GAH!
Any soft touch against the back of my neck – bad shudder.
Cold breeze when it’s hot – good shudder.
