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.

ENBB, Wednesday, 22 December 2010 14:12 (thirteen years ago) link

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.

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 (thirteen years ago) link

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.

Brown velvet hat that belonged to a street dentist in London in the 1820s-50s. It is covered with 88 decayed teeth of his former patients.

In the days before anaesthetic, this hat was supposed to communicate the "magical" skills of the dentist.
