    Raw chicken. I cook it loads, in fact most meals we eat are chicken based, and I look like a demented person cutting it up with a big knife and a fork wearing rubber gloves when preparing it! Bleaugh it knocks me sick. I still wash my hands about 10 times afterwards. I find it easier if its slightly frozen still.

    Eating with wooden forks from the chippy really goes through me for some reason. Especially if someone bites on the fork.

    The sound of knives being sharpened on a sharpening steel and I agree with Cilla with taking food of a ford with teeth.

    No 'thing' makes my skin crawl - certain people make my skin crawl.

    Someone filing their nails - ugh, even just thinking of it makes me feel funny.

    I also can't bear the touch or smell of uncooked meat.

    ETA - also, snails, slugs and 'daddy long legs'

    yup, this for me too. My nails are shocking because I can't bring myself to file them. I keep saying I'll have a manicure, but can't bring myself to do it.

    And Vaseline. Eugh. ? no idea why, but not only does it make my skin crawl, I'd go as far as saying I'm scared of it. Needless to say friends find this hilarious. Lib balm I can do but Vaseline? *shudder*

    The sound of an old man whistling in that weird warbly way. No idea why. Also the sound of someone sniffing snot back up there nose instead of blowing it - both sounds regularly to be heard on public transport whenever I am on.

    Your husband makes your skin crawl? Is everything okay ER?

    OP - anything with lots of holes close together PRANGS ME OUT....like seed pods (those big Aussie dried flower things with holes in...BLEURGH), barnacles (like EF...who is not a barnacle, but also dislikes 'em). Not sure why this is...

    These are the Aussie things - they are just SO GROSS:

    I watched something on tv about this once. Aparently its called trypophobia. And theres some types of toads which have holes in their backs where the baby toads develop until they are ready to pop out. Like this:

    I once saw someone who had head lice so bad you could see them wriggling on their head. That wasn't nice. Had me shuddering and feeling itchy for weeks.

    People eating with their mouths open, coughing in my face (you know, a proper phlegmy cough) and sniffing/snorting snot. My mum does that and its making me shudder just thinking about it.

    And Ian Beale. Yeeergh
