The ICK #11

[petitspois]

Remember the dating app profile pics during COVID of people with a sticker saying they'd been vaccinated?

Anyone who commissions an 'illustrator' to draw a picture of their house.

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”.

I think I've outdone myself on the Ick scale. I think it's classed as an ick because I'm so embarrassed with myself.
I've been going to the same reptile shop for 18 months to buy food for my sons lizard. The blokes that own it are really nice, we chat, they know my surname as its on their computer and you get 10% off loyalty. Anyway. After I paid one of them said Oh what's your name and number, we're doing a raffle and you get a free entry. I said ooh that's a funny way to ask for my number and smiled. I obviously thought I was hilarious, it was just meant as a joke (I'm happily married). I obviously have a weird sense of humour. He looked at me like 🫠‍ sort of way and I just said thanks and left. I'm going to have to find a new reptile shop. I can never go there again.
I could hear myself saying it but couldn't stop. You know when you delete a message on WhatsApp etc, I wish I could have done that.
I told my husband and he sort of laughed and said why did you say that. I DONT KNOW. I'm a walking ick. Why am I like this

I was once at a computer game museum. I don't really like playing computer games but I do quite like watching people play them for some reason. Some guy was playing a console and saw I was there and asked it I wanted to have a go. I said, "Oh no thank you, I like to watch" in a sort of jokily sexy, husky way (hard to describe; subtle but definite) and instead of laughing he went bright red and dropped the controller and I suddenly realised it had all gone wrong so I just fled the room, icking myself forever.

If my boyfriend heckled at a fucking comedy gig, I would die on the spot.

The word 'bangs'. It's a fringe yer terrible yank wankstain.

I'm sure this has been done to death as an ick but adults who are into Disney and say Disney land is the most magical place. How is it? You've got a mortgage and crows feet, grow up.

I don't trust Disney adults at all they are a weird breed also Harry Potter adults too

Men who post their Apple Watch workout to social media and then multiple hashtags

Professional photography as a profile pic, or just in general really. Nothing ickier than stepping into someone's house and their walls are covered with them grimacing in forced poses in some studio photoshoot

 

[OhMeOhMyxx]

Was seeing a guy for a few months and he wouldn’t stop creepy smiling when doing the deed. I have stopped seeing him.

I’ll add one I overheard last night. A group of men were talking and one said they hated it when women have tiny fibres from loo roll on their bits during oral sex. They all heartily agreed.

 

[it’s not been changed?!]

One of my neighbours leaves work before her boyfriend when he stays at hers. We all share the same drive and I see her tootling down in her little car on a morning and then sometimes I see her bf scurrying down the drive after her with his backpack on to the bus stop (he can’t drive 🥲)
I don’t know why it gives me the ick, maybe I’m just single and bitter

 

[EvilJigglypuff]

Men who think that having a moustache makes them all whimsical and “tally ho old chap”.

And then they use wax to make the moustache curly at the ends.

And then they enter themselves into a moustache competition.

This thread should be renamed to ‘things people hate about men’.

eye roll… men are so viscously hateful towards us (women) as people and about our human rights across all social medias - just like they are in person and within the LAW too.

this is a *tattle* thread where some women say they get icked out by a man licking a fucking yogurt lid… give me a break

The way my boyfriend eats food that you hold in your hand. So sandwiches, burgers, pizza slice etc. Can't just take one bite and chew it like a normal person. No, he has to take a bite, shove the food further into his mouth to take another bite, then shove it further for a third bite. Then noisily chomps away with a mouth rammed full of food and cheeks like a hamster, omg it makes me shudder just thinking about it

 

[Thank(space)you]

When people refer to parents or straight people of child bearing age, as "breeders"

Men (I assume it is mostly men) with that little transformers badge on their car.

My SIL has that Powered by Bitchdust sticker on hers, plus another that says You Just Got Overtaken by a Girl! (A 45-year-old girl.) I love her but her car icks me every time I see it.

A bit of a long one, but men who make snide remarks when you're not giving them attention.

There's this guy I have on Instagram, I must have matched with him on an app like 7 or so years ago. We never went on a date, but every now and then he'll reply to one of my stories.

Recently he's been doing it more and more and he's so dull. He'll send me a video of the skirting board he's planning to paint at the weekend, or the care label of his new jacket. I usually just ignore these because it's boring.

The other day I uploaded a story, just a funny one that I found. And he said

"Another wild Saturday night."

So I just said "yeah ".

And then he went "are you going to bed soon?"

And I said "yeah, so tired zzz".

And he went "you know how to live."

I didn't respond to that, it seemed snarky. And so he sent another one that said "I dream of the day you make time for me in your hectic schedule."

I ignored that but it annoyed me. It's such an ick that any one would think that's an attractive attitude. What's the point in being snide towards someone who clearly isn't interested and owes you nothing.

People who renew their vows. So self important. I'm not coming to that shit.

This suggested follow can fuck right off my Facebook timeline. I count the icks as:
“Can’t take me anywhere”

'Cant't take me anywhere' and then they proceed to do something completely basic and mundane.

Just given myself the ick asking if someone was 'au fait' with something in work. Thought I'd better jump on and grass myself up.
