I don't know if this is directly related to autism or maybe it's just a weird trait I have but I really can't stand the sight of honeycomb.

It's not the bees that scare me, I think it's because some spaces are filled where others aren't. I really can't describe how it makes me feel but I know that it is unpleasant. The colour orange does the same.

Is anyone else like this?

I'm frightened of bendy buses and this is no joke. My skin crawls, whenever I see them. I can't wait until the RMWs replace them in 2011.

Not the blood and gore aspect, but the little textures in things like this:

Closeups of human skin or without problems.

Raw meat

Pictures of these poor dogs who bother a porcupine and get a facefull of quills. All the contrast and texture of the quills just makes me feel like I'm going to throw up. For some reason it dosen't bother me as much if it is a black and white picture.

I understand what you mean. When I am in a pitch black room I cannot stand the sight of small colored lights such as the one on the fridge above the ice dispenser. I also get creeped out when the room is pitch black and I see the small red light on the HDTV when it's turned off. I also get uncomfortable by the sight of the textures and patterns on the wings of butterflies.
