skeeved out
Feeling intensely repulsed
Skeeved out means feeling disgust or revulsion, typically from something perceived as gross, creepy, or unsanitary.
The reaction is visceral rather than intellectual—you're skeeved out by a dirty bathroom, a slimy texture, or someone's unsettling behavior: The way he kept staring at her skeeved me out.
From Italian American slang.
