Taboos

Gooey and sticky things touching him, can't handle the sensation. This includes breakfast syrups, Ectos, slime monsters, hair gel, jello, congealed food grease/fat, certain kinds of hair and body care products. Upon contact he'll freeze stiff as a board with a blank face that manages to convey that he's screaming internally until it's removed from his person.
