Foam!! AAAARGH!!

Post Reply New Topic

I hate hearing foam rubbing up against foam Like in packaging. I get this strange sensation and it gives me chills. Ugh. Just wanted to vent. Everyone else thinks im a weirdo for that one.

Damn! Just read your post and it made the sound play in my head and send a horrible shiver up my spine.

Don't do that again or I'll start with chalk on a blackboard.

Yeah, that sound is horrible.

Or how about standing near the train tracks as a train comes to a long, grinding spark-spewing halt. Gah!

What about the sound of a clipper nearing your neck for a buzz cut? Just the sound sends shivers down my spine.

Aaargh, the sound of apples being peeled with a knife!

None of those sounds have ever bothered me... BUT if you were to rub your hands back and forth on a piece of construction paper it would drive me absolutely crazy.

Just thinking about it gives me chills...

The sound of a dentist's drill makes my toes curl and my spine stiffen.

There we go with the apples being peeled again! Isn't that an inaudible sound?

I think all the violin playing has caused me to be immune against this specific one.

The chalkboard doesn't phase me surprisingly. LOL. Write on cardboard with a Sharpie, then ill quit I swear.

It's loud and horrible to me. Maybe it's because my mother likes to peel fuji apples, and fuji apples make the loudest peeling sounds.

I misread that as "the sound of autistics being peeled with a knife!".

I can tolerate the foam sound but my brother hates it.
I hate the sound of dishes clanking against each other when they're being washed.

I bet they don't half squeal.

I thought that that foam noise was everyone's least favorate noise (and the chalk on the chalkboard). I find it unbearable, too. I don't know how describe how it makes me feel. It's just horrible.

I listen to a lot of classical music - symphonies, concertos, etc. I love piano concertos, harpsichord concertos, etc. When it comes to violin concertos I get nervous. In the hands of someone like Gil Shaham, Anne Sophie-Mutter, Jessica Hahn, Jashca Heifetz, Joshua Bell, etc the violin is a sublime instrument to hear. In the hands of a lesser player? All those high-pitched squeaks across the strings makes the hair on my neck stand up.
