    Oh dear god! 😳

    Well-wrought! This would certainly freeze the innards!

    Oh lord - suprisingly effective. I think we have all felt that.

    That's a whole 'notha level of ickiness in the creepy, but you did it! Feels weird to "heart" something so "EWW," but "heart" I did. Certainly high time that Vocal diversified its reaction emoticons...

  • Oh this is chilling.

  • Omgggg, I actually felt that 😖😖😖😖

    EW, this reminded me of a very specific moment where an guy that I did not know kissed me on the back of the neck while I was just standing and talked to other people. Heebie Jeebies for sure

    Yikes! Belly liquid ice? I feel that and thanks for reading my neck creep too

    Super duper chills with this one, LC; excellent work! I hate the thought of anything near my neck.😂
