It’s the vibration that’s made from styrofoam rubbing or biting on undercooked green beans. It can also come from walking on fresh snow. The vibration can almost be incapacitating like if a baby were crying in your spine.
I actually really like the sound and feeling of walking on snow and find it quite comforting. Shame it rarely happens where I live though. Styrofoam can bugger right off though.
Likewise. Styrofoam rubbing together is like nails on a chalk board - it makes my skin painful just hearing it.
For those of us who grew up around chalk boards, it’s “fingernails on a chalk board”.

yes!! lol
Whatever this is called, I suffer from it. The squeaky sound of Styrofoam makes my eyes water and my mouth tense up to the point I can’t speak.
There apparently is a named phobia for Styrofoam, specifically: Styrophobia.
Someone I knew called things like green beans “squeaky”.
Sounds like misophonia for touch instead of sounds.
Chatgpt is really good at telling you the name of things by description
thanks for the idea! here’s how it went:
User: what’s the name of the sound styrofoam makes when rubbed together?
ChatGPT: The sound produced when styrofoam is rubbed together is commonly referred to as “squeaking” or “squealing.” The friction between the styrofoam surfaces creates vibrations that result in this distinctive high-pitched sound.
User: what’s the name of the feeling people get when repulsed by the squeak of styrofoam
ChatGPT: The feeling of repulsion or discomfort that some people experience in response to certain sounds, including the squeak of styrofoam, is known as misophonia. Misophonia is a condition characterized by a strong emotional or physiological response to specific sounds, often described as “trigger sounds.” These trigger sounds can vary from person to person, but they typically elicit negative feelings, such as irritation, anxiety, or disgust.
Hell.
…jk, but no idea. If that’s a thing I’d like to know too.
Hmm I don’t mind walking in snow but I know what your talking about. Especially with the green beans,it’s kinda rubbery almost. No idea what it’s called though. It’s probably related to what ever the phobia/ism is that doesn’t like the feeling/sound of nails on a chalk board. 🤔
