Men who scan and pack their shopping as they go. Double ick if they're using one of those trolley separator things
Is it less of an ick for you if they're standing in a queue to pay, or have everything in a chaotic mess in the trolley?

(I'm not criticising your ick, the ick is what it is and we bow to its whim, I'm just wondering what's preferable!)

Screams manly to me.

Those trolley separators make me cringe.

Today's ick for me is star sign people. Got chatting to a mum at the school gate today and one of the first questions she asked was my star sign. I told her and she started nodding as she changed the subject. She judged me on my star sign! Ick.

I had an awkward moment about icks this week! I work with someone who is a bit of a Disney adult, she is in her thirties and lives at home. We were on our breaks at the same time and a new colleague came in and me and her starting talking. She said she had a date but the guy lived with his mum and it gave her the Ick, she said him saying ‘I am cleaning my room this weekend’ was too much for her. She went on to talk about this guy and others she has dated and basically described my colleague and talked about how it all gave her the Ick, while my colleague just pretended to not hear and I flapped about trying to lighten the topic.

The people who do this also post 50 photos of them outside their David Wilson home with the big red bow on the door, photos of both their hands holding a keying saying “forever home”, and have a bath mat saying “get naked”.

Grown men who wear baseball caps indoors. Looks so chavvy and I bet it stinks of sweat, seeing as they never take it off.

The only people who can get away with wearing baseball caps indoors are children and alopecia sufferers/chemotherapy patients.

Hard agree.

Americans have a particular fetish for doing this, and I find it reprehensible

Men who try to do firm handshakes and judge other people on theirs. The fact that they’ve thought the whole thing through repulses me.

Why is that an ick? That's life threatening. My mum died of multiple organ failure from sepsis 4 weeks ago. I find your comment really weird, heaven forbid someone gets ill and dies
as did my dad. His funeral was 2 days ago. Not an ick or remotely funny
