Why do some people find matchboxes disgusting?

I’ve met a few people who have a really strong reaction to matchboxes. Not fear, not superstition, and not because they’re worried about fire.
I mean the kind of reaction where they go, “Eww, get that away from me,” or “Take it out of my sight.” They act like it’s something gross or contaminated.
I’ve never understood it. To me, it’s just a small box used to light a flame.
Has anyone else noticed this? Is there a psychological reason behind it, or do some people associate matchboxes with something unpleasant? I’d love to hear if you’ve experienced this yourself or know someone who reacts this way.

Title: Moved back to Jalpaiguri after 3 years and apparently my biggest hobby now is being bored

Spent the last three years away and recently moved back to Jalpaiguri. I forgot this town goes into sleep mode the moment the sun starts setting.
I’ve exhausted the usual routine of cafés and endlessly scrolling my phone. Most of my old friends are busy, have moved away, or are doing their own thing, so I’m basically back at square one socially.
At this point, making new friends in Jalpaiguri feels like trying to find a hidden side quest. Where do people in their twenties even hang out and meet new people here?
No hate toward the town. It’s peaceful and green. It’s just… aggressively uneventful.
Anyone else moved back here after living elsewhere and had this problem?
