ASMR Water-Damaged Magazines Flip Through • Crunchy Crinkles • No Talking 

Glad this video made you feel happy, oh2sail! 🙂 Your point about the thickness of Belgian magazines is valid. It seems like the paper composition is such that when a page gets wet, it starts to sound like a cookie or a chip/crisp. At first, I thought it was because of the calcium in our water, but when adding vinegar to the water to eat up the calcium, it still resulted in a significant crunch when dried after having been water-damaged. Weird. Yes, more and more English is seeping into Dutch, hence the English titles in magazines. People younger than, say, 50, use anywhere from 10% to 40% English in regular everyday conversation. The younger they are, the more English terms you'll hear. Also, whereas in neighboring countries such as France and Germany, it's common to dub movies (you know, adding new dialogue in the audience's mother-tongue), in the Flemish part of Belgium, it almost never happens. So people are used to hearing and reading English wherever they go. Most young people would say English is their second language, not French or German (the other two official languages here). Thanks for your comment, I enjoyed reading it. Take care! ❤

"Crunchy munchy crinkle sounds" made me go 😀 Thanks so much, Karimah. ❤

Thank you so much, Mira, for your sweet words. They mean a lot. ❤

Many thanks. I'm glad you enjoy these crinkly flip throughs. 🙂❤

Aw, thank you. It's always great to read how people enjoy listening to the crinkle sounds. Thank you for sharing! ❤

Thank you so much, Super Darren. ❤ Yes, that's "Super" Darren. Let me explain myself better: the moment someone, say Cindy, gifts a Super Thanks, she becomes Super Cindy. For life. Consequently, you are Super Darren, for life. No other way about it. Those are the rules on this channel. You cannot escape. It's like an unwritten contract. 😋 Thank you for your continuing support and for all those compliments I feel I do not deserve. Wish I knew the person you are describing there! 🙃

@@PoisabloomASMR Thanks 🙏 Kat. Oh, I’m describing you all right. In fact, I took all that info from the dictionary when I looked up your name in it🙂

Bedankt, Nele! ❤ Met veel plezier gedaan en dat gaat vanzelf, met zulke lieve en dankbare kijkers. 🙂❤

You're too kind but thank you. ❤ I'm just pretending to know what I'm doing. 😀

Thanks for sharing, Kiki! ❤

They do sound like crunchy biscuits, don't they? 😀 Thanks for your comment. 🤗

They'll live on as long as RU-vid does. 😉 Thanks, Tigerr. 💟

Thanks for your kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed the crinkle sounds. 🤗

I can feel the love. Thanks, Jeanette! ❤

Thanks so much, Tommy. I'm glad this video hit the spot for you. 🤗

Thanks, Ilina. That's very sweet of you to say. 🙏🤗 I'm lucky to have such warm-hearted viewers as you.

That's good to know! It always intrigues me to read what in particular appeals to people. I'll remember what you liked (turning and flattening, turning and flattening, etc. 🙂) Thanks! ❤

Aw, merci beaucoup Little AMy. ❤

Thanks so much! ❤

Thanks for the appreciation, King $olomon. 🙂🤗

Thanks, Bookmouse! ❤

You're a very comforting and supportive presence. 🤗 Thank you, Carissa. ❤

Hey, Ivah! 👋 Thanks for your comment. We recycle paper here; it gets collected every two weeks. How about where you live?

Most of the people here usually throw them away to the trash. But my mom just tend to keep them because on her words "i might want to look at them again and i will never rest in peace if i couldn't". And to be fair, i kinda get thag from her with my children (boxes)

Thanks for hanging out with me, Hinertio! ❤

Glad to hear it, Mikey with the zzzzz's. Night night. 😴💤🙂

@@PoisabloomASMR 😀😀

Hey there, Super Darren! 🤗 Long time no read. 😉😀 I do seem to remember something about you being partial to matte, thick pages and page turning using the right hand as the active one and the left hand as the receiving one. See, I'm paying attention! 😊 I'll take it as a compliment that you enjoyed these thinner, crunchier pages as well. That makes me happy. For this video, I didn't use a light diffuser and I can't really remember the lighting conditions on that particular recording day. However, I do know I was sitting upstairs, near a pitched roof window (a non-projecting dormer window), which gives the best daylight, especially on just slightly overcast days where you can feel the sun is right there, behind that thin white veil. You can tell by the soft, rounded light on things all around. Maybe that's what you noticed? ⛅ I'm sleeping a bit better since being back home. Thanks for asking! ❤ I hope you're getting much-needed rest as well. Take care!

@@PoisabloomASMR Hey Kat!👋 I was worried that you might be getting tired of my long comments, but it appears you proved me wrong by writing a long reply of your own. Thank you so much! 😊 You know, I subscribe to 187 other channels (yeah I counted), and literally none of them give amazing replies like you do. In fact, most don’t reply at all. Granted, many of them have a lot more subscribers, so I get it would be hard to reply to so many comments. That actually makes me worry a little that when your subscriber base gets really big (and it will, I’m sure of it), we won’t get these wonderful replies from you anymore, and I would really miss that. That you care so much about a bunch of people on RU-vid is astonishing to me. Even more, that you remember details from my boring comments blows my mind (..again. My poor little mind is taking a real beating here…but in a good way 🙃). I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. I’ll even shout it from the rooftops if I have to: Poisabloom ASMR is the best channel, of any kind, on RU-vid, because of what you bring to it. I really mean that 🙂. Oh and I loved your description of your upstairs room with the pitched roof window. You must have a beautiful home. And that heavenly soft lighting is exactly what I saw, thank you. I’m glad you’re sleeping better. A comfy bed is really important. I bought this wonderful, thick bamboo mattress pad for my mattress a few years ago, and let me tell you, it’s made a world of difference. Is my bed more comfortable? Ab-so-lute-ly. Did it cure my insomnia? Ab-so-lute-ly..not. But at least it’s cozy when I’m awake 🙂. I got it on Amazon from a company called ExceptionalSheets. I gave it a 5 star review. I’d have given it 6 if I could. I think a good pillow is also vital, imo, for (attempting) good sleep. I use a shredded memory foam pillow that allows me to adjust it to the perfect height by removing or adding foam as necessary. Really comfortable. Do you use any comfort enhancements on your bed? You don’t have to answer if that’s too personal a question. Anyway, that’s my long two cents for today (sorry couldn’t help myself 😛). Thank you so much again, Kat. Take care and sweet dreams!☺️♥️

Don't worry, I'm not getting tired of your witty comments. 🙂 They are always entertaining to read and I often learn something new (Heygo, the Chic-Choc Mountains and now shredded memory foam cushions -> are those like normal memory foam cushions, with the one difference that a Rottweiler has been set loose on them hence the shredded aspect?). It's a fact that finding the right pillow is as challenging as finding the right mattress. Ah, First World Problems! 🙂 I have to look into ExceptionalSheets. Thanks for the tip. 🙏 The one extra comfort thing I use at night is a pillow between my knees; I'm a side-sleeper and it just feels more comfortable on the spine and neck to sleep like that. However, in the morning the pillow is never where I initially positioned it. It's either on the floor or intricately entangled inside the duvet, requiring some digging & shaking to get it out. 🙂

@@PoisabloomASMR 🤗 😂 Rottweiler, yes that’s exactly how they make them, hahaha. Ooh, knee pillow, I’ll have to look into that cause I have neck and shoulder pain, thanks! Ok, I need to stop so you can get some sleep, cause I think it’s past your bedtime. G’night Kat,Sweet dreams😌

Thank you! 💟

Thank you. 🙂🤗
