Top Ten: More Things That Are Gross

.... because I thought of some more things that gross me out.


10. When babies throw up on you. But it's gross in an endearing, I-can't-get-very-mad-at-you sort of way.

9. Bugs with skibbly legs and/or inordinately large bodies.

8. When you pull your scotch tape out of the drawer and it has dust and lint and particles of things stuck to it.

7. Grades. You know how I feel about the standardized grading system.

6. Sticky hands. Yes, I know this is the average toddler's natural state. I do not think children are gross, but I clean their hands when they get sticky. Sand, dirt, and germs? More power to 'em. Peanut butter, jam, or any other form of stickiness? A handwashing is forthcoming.

5. Rotten pumpkins. Few things look (or feel) worse than a rotten pumpkin.

4. Pond scum, seaweed, and other slimy forms of marine plant life.

3. Catfish. They eat trash. I don't eat things that eat trash. (Plus, they look gross.)

2. This one synthesizer noise... I don't know what it's called or why I hate it, but it makes me feel physically ill. *shudder*

1. Men in leggings (outside the theater or dance studio, of course).
