Weird things that relax you «12...Next Go

I had a thought I was watching another soap cutting video and thinking this was relaxing I hate the creepy whispering asmr and certain sounds but for some reason I like that. Soap crunching too, generally stopped watching slime videos but used to like those too I bet no one is going to comment but if you have something you think is weird but don't care because it works tell me about it.

Why...I don't know I'm inbetween writing bits and got bored.

Some people think ASMR is weird. I like it, well certain types at least.

@wolfkomoki1 yeah some is stranger than others but I still know my favorites aren't too bad at least I don't think so. I guess that's how it always starts though.
@poltergeist I knew I wasn't alone, don't know why but the talking agitates me personally oh I haven't seen that one before that one is nice, and it involves food without being...well you know. I don't like the chewing ones either even though mouth noises don't bother me.

I like these two I guess the crunch sound could be hit or miss in the second one but I like that if you want to see.

@RedDestiny92 i like the soap cutting one. i have carved soap irl before and it's just as satisfying as watching/hearing.
the second one i don't like too much, i like the crunching in the cup but not with the hands. i think the sound is just not "solid" enough for me.

RedDestiny92

@poltergeist I wanted to try it not that I would know the first thing about it but even though I like them I sometimes want to reach in the screen and do it myself ha. Ah I see, I understand that there is a point when it's good and when it's too much I saw one with shaving wet chalk I think it was that was a little different.

İt might sound quite weird but ı love playing with pencils.I mean not playing with them as dollies.(I used to do that when ı was a child lol)I like to roll them with my fingers.But not every pencil suits.Like their point should not be neither sharp nor blunt.They have to suit my fingers so ı can roll them without any problem.I do not why ı do this but it relaxes me :P

RedDestiny92

@TeenWolf_1999 I could see how that's relaxing, just the action of busying your fingers, though I still don't get fidget spinners lol.

I'm not sure if it's weird but if I am sad or angry I clean and it relaxes me having something to do with a set goal

RedDestiny92

@PinkFlyingPasta well technically it's weird to people who hate cleaning lol, I'm kind of similar I can't stand too much clutter around me though a little is alright never know when it's time to clean until I'm done.

hunniboo1

I like watching pimple popping videos lol

RedDestiny92

@hunniboo1 lol I used to watch those it is the oddest part of youtube to get stuck on.

i like soap cutting asmr when the soap is pre-carved with like a checker pattern bc then when they cut the top layer off, it comes off in a bunch of little cubes.

RedDestiny92

@LunaMikaelson I've seen those, I like the cutting part but I don't like the sound of the cubes hitting the table.

I rage clean too.
Used to do it more often when I was living in a share house. My housemate would irritate me, with his inability to clean up after himself, so I would passive aggressively clean the house.

Listening to insane clown posse

RedDestiny92

@soko37 I haven't listened to them in a long time I like Five Finger Death Punch among others really drowns out the noise in your head huh

Smoochs

@poltergeist I'm gonna have to check that channel out, thanks!

For ASMR, I don't think it's the noise for me, just the fact that it's something not too engaging to fall asleep to.

Alot of the time though? Talking to my dog or myself. I know, it makes me sound coco, but it helps.

Or just driving around in GTA 5. That relaxes me too, oddly? Not killing anyone. I try not to take out frustrations in a violent way, if I can. Just driving around till I calm down helps, weirdly?

I like to find quiet places in video games with good background music and just zone out while I walk/ride/fly about. Sometimes I do it for ages and don't even play the game.

Some of the places I visit in Final Fantasy XIV:

I always thought the ambient music in Skyrim was relaxing too. I can remember riding around aimlessly in circles just to listen to it.

I am such a housewife lol or umm househusband HA! I clean my house when I need to relax. Oh the joys of doing the dishes by hand =O

RedDestiny92

@GabbyGirlJ @Smoochs I haven't played anything GTA since San Andreas, but I used to do that all the time, a nice quiet drive or in that game you could find a bike and I'd go look for one and just ride it around lol.

Funny how relaxing the tiniest parts of games can be, I mean if going there or doing certain things doesn't move the story ahead.

@sikasika18 cleaning is relaxing too ha.

Recently I relax just by exploring Hyrule in Breath of the Wild.

Glad to know I'm not the only one who does this.

You should try out GTA 5 RedDestiny. My mum's a good fan of San Andreas, but she says her fav is Los Santos (I have the best mum who plays video games ). I haven't played through the story myself, but it's fun to mess around online.
