“…fear itself.”
I can honestly say I am not really afraid of anything. spiders, snakes, heights, death, failure… i mean sometimes i’d really like to avoid this shit, as in i do not want to be injured/die… but that doesn’t make me afraid.
being sticky. i had a nightmare about eating waffles with syrup and the syrup got all up the fork and between my fingers. and my hands were all sticky FUCK i hate being sticky
My phobia is an irony:
I have this nerve-wrecking fear at the thought of spaces. Wide open, seemingly endless spaces (i.e., outer space, the ocean).
Yet, I’m an amateur astronomer. Whodathunkit.
Being in a shitty marriage while having her sister, niece, mother and family friend move-in with you.
Ohhh… fears? Ha. I have none, I live it everyday.
I get lost. I actually do and I’ve lived in the same city my whole life. I have a phobia about it, I get anxious and sweaty and I get lost. People think you are joking but it is to me real, like people with a fear of heights. I hate it.

I will say that mazes scare me. I don’t go in them…ever. I get panicky as hell, …we have a corn maze err…corn maize? nevermind, we have one every Halloween, and children go in but I only have once, and only accompanied by somebody else lol I can’t stand them, I think it kind of goes hand in hand with a trapped feeling though which I mentioned. Despite all my rage I am still just a rat in a cage! Anyway its not a phobia, but I won’t willingly enter. Being lost is a shitty feeling.

oh hell, these fuckers. For anyone who wants to know more:
Also, tapeworms and internal parasites
So I think we can agree spiders are the most common phobia. It’s also one of the most irrational phobias. Being buried alive or having a parasite swim up your penis are both rational. What is it with spiders? For me, there is nothing on earth that exemplifies pure evil more than a big aggressive looking spider.

So this doesn’t bother you then?

These are the REAL common phobias I see on this site.
The fear of clowns is called Coulrophobia, I have a close friend that is afflicted. It seems very common these days. The one thing they suspect as being cause, is that clowns have a painted on smile…and can mask true emotion. People fear that which cannot be reasoned with in a sense, and the absence of present emotional readability (other than a big fucking painted on smile) qualifies as this. That’s just one theory.
I remember once as a child, I had to spend the night in a retirement community with a grandmother who was obsessed with clowns. They were all over her apartment. I didn’t sleep a wink that night. I don’t have a resulting phobia of clowns, thankfully…but they do provoke an uneasy feeling. In a way, I find them fascinating. What could possibly inspire a person to become a clown? I almost sense that some trauma has enticed them into a permanent smile, but all the while they are the laughing victims of misfortune. Some unthinkable misfortune. But I don’t think they seek to inflict the same, I think they become the clown…to live in a slapstick world of one dimension. I perceive them as hurting souls, to which everyone in one way or another, regardless of irrational fears…can relate.
Not really a phobia or even a fear per se, but goats freak me out.
They’re so damn weird looking.
In order:
-
My girlfriend leaving/cheating on me.
-
Claustrophobia.
-
My girlfriend saying she is pregnant.
Had a dream last night where my girlfriend said she was cheating on me, I got so angry, i woke up really pissed off and had shit loads of acne over my face even though the night before my skin was perfectly clear.
I also got that dream where my teeth were falling out, weird.
I would rather crawl through a pitch black 2 mile long tunnel where I couldn’t turn around, than deal with my girl cheating on me.
My biggest fears are
a). Geese
b). Clowns
So, actually I guess my biggest fear would be confronted by an crazed clown brandishing an angry goose like a weapon.
Right, I’m off to hide under the bed now … …
Although I am not fond of heights, the only thing I really fear, and have ever feared, is the death of a loved one.
I always figure most other things are like Arnold says in Predator: “If it bleeds, I can kill it.” There is, of course, no killing death…
EDIT- Scratch that. Spider crickets scare the ever living shit out of me. I don’t mind spiders, or crickets, but when you mix the two into a monstrous demon creature that can bounce like a football and jump ten feet in the air, my only thought is that if Satan was reincarnated on Earth, this is him. The last time I faced off with one, I ended up running away screaming like a girl. He beat my ass.
When I looked up the picture to put up here, I could only look for a second before I had to look away. It’s like the sun.

So it wouldn’t be cool that she cheated on you with me and now she’s pregnant? Or does that only work if it’s yours?
Either way, she rules.
