for this reason, I could never live in an earthship (earthships generally have 'bottle walls')

okay the wall doesn't freak me out that much, probably because it's inorganic

I'm actually extremely sensitive to this. Anything beyond an exact, hexagonal honeycomb pattern is just like fuck no.

I saw the lotus boobs when I GISed trypophobia.

The feeling I get when I see patterns of holes (or lamprey mouths) is very precisely loathing. I feel disgust, anger, and hate. And pity, maybe.

I don't know if this related, but I have a definite irrational fear of olive loaf or really any type of bologna that has little round stuff embedded in it. I'm perfectly at peace with salami and pepperoni and their regular flecked patterns, but if a slice of bologna is anything but perfectly pink and consistent throughout, then it creeps me out hardcore.

I didn't realize for a long time that those round yellow things with dark borders in that last photo are pistachios. knowing what they are makes them slightly less terrifying, but still, aaargh.

why oh why did you do this.

also why oh why did i look.

i'm fine with the inorganic ones, though, or at least not physiologically distressed.

Oh man I feel like I'm at least partially responsible for this thread existing and would just like to say I AM SO SORRY!

― ENBB, Wednesday, 22 December 2010 14:12 (2 years ago) Permalink

Also, things like that building or the art don't bother me at all. This really only gets to me when it's things in the natural world. That tree trunk Grady posted is awful.

Oh wait, exactly.

― ENBB, Wednesday, 22 December 2010 14:15 (2 years ago) Permalink

totally have the creepy crawlies again

The only organic example of this that doesn't really bother me are honeycombs. I'm fine with those but apparently they're really problematic for some people.

― ENBB, Wednesday, 22 December 2010 14:17 (2 years ago) Permalink

well that fear of bologna thing is because those speckles in your bologna are bone.

One of the weirdest things about it is that even though this is very much a thing for me, I can't not open this thread when I notice it's been updated.
