Most people would say "fingernails on a blackboard," but no, apparently I am much weirder than that.

* Metal silverware cutting on cheap, glossy paper plates
* Fingernails on car paint
* Fingernails on some house siding material
* Touching paper or smooth wood with previously damp hands (i.e. right after drying my hands with a towel)

My dad has one I've never heard of before: The sound of taking a bite out of an apple.

Oh, I thought you meant things that scare you.

I don't really "get the willies" from anything, except for two things:

-the "door ajar" sound in my dad's 1996 suburban truck thing.
-Radio waves (or something) that my head picks up.  I don't know if it's just me, but once in a while I hear this high frequency noise that feels like my ears un-popped sometimes.  Other times I just hear it.

Thank you for visting my world, come again ... Now entering reality, welcome back.

The sound of six people snoring in a four person hotel room.  I don't know if I snored.

South Hall at E3 2005.

The "Please load paper ..." voice from my Lexmark printers software.

The metal on metal sound of a slow speed car wreck.

Biting into something very cold with my bare teeth.

Fighting some rediculously difficult boss person in any game (depends on music, scariness of boss). The hair on my neck stands up and I begin to feel rather cold.

-Alarm clock buzz
-Imaginary screams
-Memory of my brother's eyes glowing in the dark
-Immunization Needles
-Roller coasters
-Being approached

Oh yeah, I forgot all about being approached!

And sometimes when I'm asleep, I'll involuntarily momentarily turn up the volume in my head for a second, and the silence is really loud and hurts a little.

Heights
The Dark
Spiders
Thought of being watched

- Alarm clocks (buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz)
- The thought (and/or feel) of my fingernails grinding (?!?)
- Depths (heights don't bother me)

I know there's at least one other sound that totally creeps me out. I can't remember what it is right now, though.

My brother can't stand the sound of any metalware scraping together (silverware scraping, or on a metal plate).

"-Radio waves (or something) that my head picks up. I don't know if it's just me, but once in a while I hear this high frequency noise that feels like my ears un-popped sometimes. Other times I just hear it."
^ That's probably the sound of a CRT somewhere near you. Like a TV screen or computer monitor or something. I hear those all the time.

Me too, I guess. This also reminded me of another: Chewing on wooden spoons.

Ripping paper.
One earphone failing while the other keeps playing.

The really high-pitched sound that a tv or computer makes.
Chalkboards. Anything on chalkboards.
My friend grinding his teeth loudly.

The thought of grinding my teeth really gets me, though it used to be fun many years ago.
Today's actually... nobody's birthday!  Quick, hurry up and make a baby!

I got some weird ones.

- Listening to my brother "hork" his saliva and then spit in the sink
- Getting shot repeatedly in a Mega Man game (I just got Anniversary for my GC on my bday)
- Listening to baby Mario scream his head off in YI
- Homework
