Most “ASMR” grosses me out TBH, I don’t like that whisper stuff and I really hate those lip-smacking sounds. Shame, since I am actually interested in the general concept.

It all drives me up the wall.

Same. It feels like someone raking my CNS the wrong way.

What’s CNS?

fjordbasa@lemmy.world on 19 Oct 17:15 next collapse

Central nervous system

Central nervous system i think

The best stuff is an old craftsperson calmly explaining and demonstrating their obsolete trade, like that welsh stone carver.

ASMR wasn’t meant to be erotic. Listen to the OG: Virtual Barbershop by Cetera.

Try simpler sounds and triggers. Tapping, scratching, brushing; rain, fire, water, whale sounds, keyboard typing, etc.

eruchitanda@lemmy.world on 19 Oct 23:24 collapse

For me it changed with time, from slow to fast and aggressive, types of triggers, different ASMRtists…

It’s kind of sad it ever caught on. The real stuff is fleeting and incredibly pleasant. Bob Ross seems to be the leading cause of it. The intentional stuff is, by definition, terrible.

As someone pointed out, it’s not supposed to be erotic. The tingles that it causes isn’t caused by erotic stimuli, it’s a very different kind of tingle. Which doesn’t mean some ASMR can’t be erotic, I’m not saying that. Speaking for myself, the tingles I get are mostly around my face and eyes, if that makes sense. Not my fingertips, though.
