things that make me want to throw up
« hair poison ugh music »
Okay maybe not really throw up, but still…
- dog smell – I like some dogs, they are cute, but 99.9% of them smell like dog, because they are dogs. And dog smell makes me gag, so I don’t think I can ever own a dog.
- fake cherries aka maraschino cherries – ugh why must they mess with a good thing, REAL cherries are good, fake cherries are so gross and sweet they make my throat burn with an inferno of hatred (fake cherries recently discovered in Hershey Kisses, blegh)
- fake strawberry – not as bad as fake cherry, but please don’t hand me any kind of candy or sweets with fake strawberry flavor. You may hand me real strawberries instead.
- real banana – I think this stems from repeated childhood trauma of my mom trying to force me to eat bananas for years because “they’re GOOD for you!”, YEARS of torture, which started my lifelong hatred of bananas. They also make my tongue itch, I have a lot of food “allergies” that hurt my mouth, but I’ve never gone to have an allergy test done because I don’t want to stop eating all the fruits and veggies that I love. Also, fake banana flavor = pretty good, and even better than that is anything apple flavored or scented.
- trash/dirty dishes – If the trash hasn’t been taken out or dishes not cleaned right away, I’ll smell it, and go crazy and think of giant germs and mold
- screaming children – No explanation necessary
- raw chicken – I don’t know why this grosses me out so much, I don’t have a problem with any other raw meat. I usually make David cook chicken, or I’ll cook it for a really long time “just in case”… also increases thoughts of giant germs and salmonella
- mold, rust, or broken glass – I fear not seeing them, getting them on my skin, and instantly dying. So if I do see them, I want to die instantly
- skin diseases – I can watch surgeries, see blood, guts and everything else EXCEPT skin diseases. Worst of all was that “tree man” in the news a couple of months ago. I won’t link to it, because I don’t want to see it again, and I don’t want to subject anyone else to the horror (giant germs)
- worms – I don’t like bugs, but worms make me want to vomit, the smaller they are the more vomit I could potentially produce
Okay, I’m done grossing myself out.

they all seem like pretty normal things.
I met someone the other night who wanted to throw up at the thought of buttons.
I guess it takes all people! xx

I’m with you on the dogs and screaming kids. I can handle the worms though, it’s cockroaches that creep me out to no end. Only time raw meat bothered me was when I was pregnant (before I knew I was). Almost fainted in the meat aisle lol.
Great posts!

I absolutely hate those maraschino cherries! I have hated them since I was little actually. My dad was in a band and always used to take me to bars to help them set up…so I would hang out and get a soda and they would always put those awful cherries in my soda- Ugh. Bad memories.

The sound of nails on a chalkboard. Or just stories of nails breaking, getting soggy, getting peeled off, etc.
