    I swear I posted in this thread before :confused:

    Anyway, I'm allergic to books. Certain books I just can't read because I actually sneeze every couple of seconds when I open them. It's usually older and dusty books because I'm super allergic to dust, but sometimes I can't read new books either just because the moment I open them I get set off.

    I'm also allergic to many brands of deodorant and especially perfume. This woman sat next to me on the bus once and I was sneezing non stop for ages and I'm pretty sure it was her perfume. It was super embarrassing because I would have felt awkward asking her to move, and I was by the window so I couldn't just slip away. But it happens all the time when I'm around women who wear lots of perfume.
    Yes. That's right. I'm allergic to women.

  3. Sorry to bring a post back after it's been dead for a bit, but I thought I'd add my two cents.

    I'm not sure what it is exactly, but sadly I'm allergic to something in solid deodorant so I'm stuck using the gel. Haha.

    I'm allergic to... beer?

    There was an incident that happened when I was three (and since I was three, all I have are secondhand accounts...). Let's just say there was "adult idiocy/ignorance" involved on the part of some random people that I wouldn't remember anymore if I bashed my face into them.

    It's really a non-issue though. I don't like throwing around facepalm-inducing words like "straightedge," but... would teetotaler work?

    I'm allergic to wool, nearly all plants found in Nevada, most domesticated animals except for dogs, and I have a chemical sensitivity to chlorine. No food allergies though!

    For some strange reason, I'm sometimes unable to drink orange squash. Could probably be to do with the fact that sometimes I don't dilute the drink with enough water and as such it ends up too concentrated, but sometimes when I drink it my chest gets tight and i become extremely itchy/ticklish round the chest/underarm areas to the extent that I'm constantly scratching. I didn't have this until the last few years, so fuck knows if it's an actual allergy.
