This word is usually used to describe being turned off of a person after you get to know them and start to see some of their disgusting habits. You can feel physically sick or grossed out after seeing whatever happened.
“Ugh, Adam won’t stop burping anytime we go out. Gives me the ick.”
The name for a sickness (usually a cold or the flu) which rampages its way through dorm buildings or Greek houses on a college campus.
Allison: Ugh, I feel terrible. Meagan: You're probably coming down with the Ferguson Ick, it's already bedridden everyone on the fourth floor.
Morgan - men that don’t brush their teeth and wash their sheets once every 3 years. Men that will jump on any 15 year old.
You could be on the chirpse with a guy or girl, everything seems to be going fine.. you THINK you like them but then you suddenly catch 'The Ick'. From then on you can't look at the person in the same way, you just progressively get more and more turned off by them, weirdly & maybe for no reason in particular grossed out by them. You'll cringeeeeee at the thought of you and them together. Nothing will be the same, you won't be able to do it any longer and eventually have to cut it off.- Ideology curtesy of Olivia from Love Island:)
Olivia: Sam's a really nice guy, such a happy boy so full of light. Thought i kinda fancied him, but i've caught 'The Ick' and I can't knock it off. Once you've caught it, it takes over body. Can't do it anymore...
