I hate hate hate hate the little hooks from insect's feet/legs, they hook into your skin but just the very outer layer and it's like it's getting to rip my skin off by making it peels off of the skin itself!!! Hate hate hate hate hate hate hate
Also, paper being eaten in any shape or form. I had to roll my lips over my teeth while I wrote that down it just makes them hurt even from just imagining it, seeing my baby nephew eating it made me have to look away and try to ignore the entire ordeal as much as possible, even people talking about it
