Aethers' Space gives me gross vibes; like when I first saw it, it made me feel like it was something inappropriate for some reason. It's not a major discomfort anymore, but I do actively avoid it, especially on adult poses. Scuttle gives me a little squick as well, for creepy-crawly vibes. I dislike some other things and find them gross, like I dislike Plague Primal, but it doesn't actually give me the squick. Space/Scuttle seem to be the only ones that make me a little squirmy/avoidant.

Laced. I really do not like Laced. I also do not like Slime, Sludge, Capsule, or Keel. They just give me bad vibes when I see them.

I have trypophobia and I feel genuinely nauseous when I look at polkadot.

The only thing I really don't like looking at is Earth Primal eyes. I know what they were going for with the gems around the socket but... It does not look nice to me.

Capsule. That's it. There are other genes I think are usually ugly, but it's the only one that squicks me out

I think just keel, and for some reason leopard & clouded, and rosette but I like jaguar

Innocent eyes make me uncomfortable on most (maybe all?) breeds/poses. Keel makes me uncomfortable on some dragons, the way it looks like their scales are sticking out at the wrong angle...it looks like it hurts [emoji=sandsurge sad size=1]
Plague, shadow, earth, and nature primal eyes are creepy but in a way that can be cool, potentially. Polypore, spores, and trickmurk (looks like mold) are similar because fungi are scary [emoji=sandsurge scared size=1]
...wait I forgot! I like the gene peacock on some breeds and in most colors, but on some poses it freaks me out. I think tundra M is the worst, especially if the peacock spots have bold/dark outlines? It feels like a bad omen, like the moment that the dread sets in in a nightmare...I think it's something about the proportions and spacing of the circles.
I also forgot about gnarlhorns and jewels despite the latter being mentioned in the original post. Jewels = creepy-on-purpose = cool. Gnarlhorns = looks like it hurts = no thank you.
I'll also second that I love capsule but NOT the official explanation because that sounds gross/painful. They are magic dragons with potion inside...good enough for me!

Only very specific colors on certain genes that are harsh on my eyes. Like Radioactive Ribbon/Eel and Radioactive Jaguar/Rosette. I love how super bright they are, but the contrasting colors are arranged in ways that makes me see double. I can handle them much easier if they are partially covered by a tert like Stained, Soap or Crackle.
As far as feeling the "ick factor"? Nada. I like gross things like zombies and creepy crawlies though, lol.

There are a few I don't like the design of, but none that actively squick me or cause me enough discomfort that it would negatively impact my enjoyment of FR.
Soap the art style doesn’t match, the accent colors throw me off most of the time and it just looks so gross and sticky
