I definitely experience it, and it’s not really a ‘fear’ it’s a...full body twinge or shudder I can actually feel when I see organic tiny holes clustering (a la Lotus). It’s a very “eugh” feeling that just makes me feel, well, weird and very uncomfortable. I’m not afraid of them, just....super repulsed?

Where does your authority and knowledge come from? Nowhere? Youre just making shit up? Yep. Internet guy. 

If it is definitely definitively fake then prove it with some hard evidence, your opinion is level 7 (aka low) evidence give me some EBP articles. Here is my evidence that while not a diagnosable disorder, is something that we physicians still consider an important condition that warrants further investigation and…

i think that’s the case for a lot of people, it is not consistent at all.

Trypophobia is an aversion to the sight of irregular patterns or clusters of small holes or bumps. It is not officially recognized as a mental disorder, but may be diagnosed as a specific phobia if excessive fear and distress occur. People may express only disgust to trypophobic imagery.

Not really. Most of my triggers are tied up in organic stuff. My triggers are weird and uneven. It’s not every instance which is good but also not good since it means I can’t anticipate and avoid. That mouse that was linked gets me but the vent holes on the back of my Switch do not. 

I am one of the people that “have” it, and it’s definitely real. I think maybe it’s partially that it’s reminiscent of spider’s eyes or maybe if you’ve ever stumbled upon a bee hive split open that is still full of larva. Basically so many gross things in nature are that shape, that it just causes disgust even when…

except that it’s not. chill.

True it’s not a clinically-diagnosed disorder on its own, but it does cause ligitimate distress in a lot of people. I’m one of them. It’s absolute kryptonite for me and I’m not easily offended. I think you’re right about “moist” and pinapple on pizza - that’s preference. I don’t like either, but I don’t feel my body…

It might not be an “official” mental disorder/phobia, but that doesn’t mean it’s not real for many people. It is, at the very least, far more than just a “made-up internet meme.” Like many things, the internet simply enabled more people to realize that they weren’t alone in their fears over a specific thing.

Yeah you can use it to run your lesbian hook up site or your gig economy home cleanup site

Who would have guessed Mr. Cooper as a secret member of the Clitterati.

I still can’t believe the ego it takes to run in an election with no plan, no ideas, no reason except to sate their own ego.

Considering he said out loud that he appointed Louis deJoy to undermine the post office and cast doubts on, or outright lose, mail in ballots, it’s not a conspiracy theory.

I imagine most of the mail-in ballots favor Biden because Trump spent months telling his supporters not to use mail-in ballots.

65 million Americans are idiots. That includes some of everyone heres friends and families.

Honestly this whole show sucks.   I kinda wish they didn’t announce the results of an election until it was done.  All this unofficial counts and the media “calling” states just makes complicated and silly.  

I mean they should be doing this every day right
