At least in my case. When I was five, I did scratch a chalkboard with my own initiative. The skin skin under my fingernails was very sensitive, and I got this weird trembling spreading in my whole body! The sensation did hurt, but it was also very appealing, and I scracthed the board a few more times. After that experience every time someone scratches a chalkboard, I only remember the trembling and the hurt sensation, and cant help not to shudder.
This is my experience.

Submission + - MS Kills Support for XPSP2 (threatpost.com) 1
Trailrunner7 writes: Microsoft's announcement this week that it is preparing to end support for machines running Windows XP SP2 not only represents a challenge for the thousands of businesses still running SP2, but also is the end of an era for both Microsoft and its customers. With Service Pack 2 Microsoft set out to fix that and add a number of other security protections, as well. It wasn't until 2004 that the final release of XP SP2 actually hit the streets. But when it did, it represented a huge step forward in security for Windows users. It wasn't necessarily the feature set that mattered as much as the fact that the protections were enabled by default and taken out of the users' hands.
