I hate cotton balls
 
I can barely look at them, nevermind touch them.
Just the feeling of them freaks me out.

Kinda like fingernails on a chalkboard.. x 100. ::-|

sweet7 03-02-2005 10:42 AM

is there a specific reason? like an incident of some kind that traumatized you or just always been that way?

Gruntled 03-02-2005 11:15 AM

It's 100 times worse when they are wet. Wet jeans are the same way.

McAttack 03-02-2005 11:48 AM

wtf? You're like the 2nd person in the biz that's terrified of cotton balls. How did you go through arts & crafts in elementary school man?

"Alright children, now glue some cotton balls on your easter bunnies and we're done"
Little EC: "AarhhhhhhHHH!" *runs away*

NastyTaylor 03-02-2005 12:02 PM

yeah how cotton balls feel freaks me out too!!

dyonisus 03-02-2005 12:37 PM

they do feel a little funny, even the cotten pads that are essentially cotton balls flattened and quilted feel odd

sweet7 03-02-2005 12:39 PM

this thread brings one thing to light ---> you guys all have deep rooted problems

:p

Panky 03-02-2005 01:27 PM

LOL! I agree with sweet. :twisted:



:nyanya:



I don't mind cotton balls themselves, but I can't stand them in my ears. It takes all I have to use a Q-tip to clean my ears. I hate it! :bonk:

sweet7 03-02-2005 02:21 PM

you are all a strange bunch........


here's a little something for all of you.

did you get really sick on cotton candy when you were a kid?

maybe thats why

gnat69 03-02-2005 03:33 PM

I do think that is strange but then again I get all freaked when I see fermented ketchup.....ewwwwww

sweet7 03-02-2005 04:28 PM

what does fermented ketchup look like?

Jasun 03-02-2005 07:23 PM

I now don't feel so odd for being afraid of dust.

Gruntled 03-02-2005 09:23 PM

Oh the smell of rancid ketchup....

When my wife was pregnant, she always swore she smelled it. Everywhere. Especially at fast food places....

I never smelled it then, but the thought of the smell is bad enough.

It is DISGUSTING!!!!!

The bottle looks like it is about to explode and it is light and fluffy with lots of bubbles.....I gag big time when I see this.

I used to work at "Long John Silvers" when I was in HS and I had to leave my shift a few time cuz I threw up....

trishie, I can't even open a new pill bottle for fear there is a huge ball of cotton on the top.

I have to get FB to open it for me! LOL
She's mean too... sometimes she chases me around the house with one in her hand, or she'll drop one in my lap when I'm watching television.

:bonk:

You're afraid of dust??? And you live with me???

Oh, you poor thing. I had no idea. I'm gonna have to do something really nice for you.

Evil Chris... um.... well... I don't know what to say. I don't like mold. I'm afraid if I touch it that it will eat me. I know that sounds really odd. So, I guess I'm right there with you. Except that mold is alive, so I'm only half crazy. LOL!

Someone needs to photoshop a little mouth with fangs on the photo of the cotton balls above. Hee hee. :bonk:

This morning my ears were exposed to some christian music. I've heard this kind of music
before but this morning it almost made me ill.

Then I thought about this thread.

Not true....:angel:

DonMike 03-04-2005 01:11 PM

You know, I did think of something else that bothers me. You know those pictures that have moving images when you move them around. You usually see them on the covers of childrens books or those freaky religious portraits where Jesus' eyes follow you? Not the holograms but the old fashioned ones that have a sort of ridged surface. I cannot touch those. They look kind of cool but the surfaces makes this awful noise if you accidentally scrape your nails agains it or rub your fingers across the surface. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

I just felt the need to share. :)

Don Soporno 03-05-2005 09:24 AM

this is funny and sad at the same time.

Okay, now ya can't tell us that and not deliver!!! C'mon girl, give it up! :p

sexykitten 03-07-2005 09:20 PM

I've heard the cotton ball thing before, they do 'squidge' kinda funny when you touch them. Doesn't bother me though, I use them to take my mascara off every night. I do have some other phobias though...Clowns, deep water (who knows what will swim up and bite you!) and the dark. Yes I'm afraid of the dark. there, I've said it.
