Certain people trying to seem cool, me giving presentations, (now come some arguably physical more things) loud noises, irritating noises, the sound of velcro, velcro stuck to something it shouldn’t be, getting a fingernail stuck on cloth (especially wool blankets), the way people mash buttons on their phones/computers instead of reading the error code/pop up
I can probably think of more
Intrusive thoughts. Ugh I get a lot of them especially about sexual things between friends or something and it’s just the worst. I have to close my eyes hard and use all my tricks to try to get it to stop.
Mine tell me to kill myself or tell people who don’t respect it my opinion on something or sometimes strangle them if they’re particularly offensive. Honestly I still think I prefer mine.
My own answer is what got me thinking of the question.
People cheering for, happily celebrating or laughing at death or people dying.
At least to me, death is dark, serious, grim and horrible on a very fundamental level. Even if it is deserved or necessary it just isn’t something to be elated about. Human beings dying don’t combine with happy feelings.
I find it literally sickening. Usually it’s been in the context of people behaving horribly (for instance suicide encouragement, terrorism etc.) but todays lemmy feed also brought it out, and really made me think about why it made me feel that way.
you are thinking about the CEO. I’m not cheering, but it makes me a little happier. to me it’s not like death (it does not feel like it, but I of course know it is that), but getting rid of a threat to humanity. maybe it also contributes that I don’t count rich, highly influential people as humans, but as disgusting parasites that have no place anywhere near they are. of course there may be exceptions, but that’s a very rare
Same. I totally get that the victim was a real horse’s ass (to put it very mildly) and about as unsympathetic as they come, but the response here has just been beyond sickening. Let’s just say my “block” button has been quite busy the last couple days.

The smell of blood in the night, the sound of squelching coming from the basement door that I know I boarded up, and the sight of my late wife holding what was once our son.
I think a lot of us can relate.

Wet chewing sounds
The energy in a room full of people.
It depends on the people though, but mostly, nah.
I really don’t like crowds and avoid them as much as I can.
But I really love concerts. When the energy of everyone around you just kinda syncs with the music, it’s one of the best feelings.
Exactly what i meant. There are concerts that i’ll never forget.
Weird flowers and about 50% of all things living in the sea
A lot of things. I have an anxiety disorder.
Same for me. It pretty much ruined my life. I don’t know how to cure this.
Meditation helps with the symptoms, but I’ve got fuck-all for the causes.
Same, fam
It’s never easy, but it does get easier
Unless it doesn’t, but hey, I don’t want to worry you
Capitalism
The realization that most of my family, given the rise of fascism, would be fascist enablers. Same with like 90% of the people at work.
The first season of The Office (US version).
Loud drunk people being nearby. Drunk people are unpredictable and impulsive and things can get awful really quickly.
Dishonor.
