What are some of your phobias?

[SlitherinSisters]

They're everywhere by my job due to the river, lakes, and ponds being all over. There was a female on my Jeep two nights ago. Eeeeek!

Snakes, Jeeps, Dragons, Nature, & Knives.. Makes my world go-round!

Wait...those are in the US, and right next door to Iowa..... OMG

But yea so thats two people that have been pecked in the face by a chicken; you and slitetherin sisters! Next time i go to my friends house im not holding any of his damn birds!

I told you that was a legitimate fear! I sure as heck don't like or trust them! Chickens are the only animal I will help my granny butcher every year. They are evil, soulless creatures.

You know phobias aren't always logical, right?

Everyone laughs at that poor Cotton Ball lady on Maury. Except me. Why?

I. hate. Cotton. Balls.

I hate touching them. I hate having to open up a new pill bottle to find a cotton ball, because I don't want to touch it. I hate the sound cotton makes when you squeeze and roll it between your fingers. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me. Even some dish clothes have that same 'dry' feeling that cotton balls have.

It's not so much a 'fear' as it is an 'I can't stand it'. It really is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

So glad I'm not the only one. Oh man I hate those pill bottles with cotton balls in them! WHY?!!!

Dude! I know the sound you are talking about! I thought I was the only human being that was bothered by that. They don't scare me, but that sound and how they feel. Eww!!! How about styrofoam? That little squeaky sound it makes when its squished or rubs against something. AHH!!!

Lol, another cotton ball hater, yay! *shivers* styrofoam....ugh.... that stuff is god awful too!

And I'm with you on not liking to ride passenger. I have to read or close my eyes sometimes if I'm not driving. I feel like I might have a panic attack when people are really bad drivers. That is the very same reason I have my own motorcycle. I would like to be in control of my own death thank you very much.

Well that was a little strong of a comment i guess lol. I would touch one, just not on the head. But if i go to rub their butts or back then ill get kicked by them! Its a lose lose situation either way.

I'll tell you what, if some some ungodly reason i ever end up in Iowa, ill hit you up and we can have a psych session with you introducing me to your horsies.

Another reason i dont like them is bc people always say how smart they are. If they were smart then wouldnt they just throw off the jockeys when they start whipping them? If anyone jumped on my back and whipped me to make me run i would punch them in the face lol...

I'm going to hold you to that!

I'm riding down the aisle on my horse in 30 days if that tells you anything about how horse crazy I am, lol. About the smart thing, they are smart in their own way, but I will admit they do some pretty dumb things. Twice we have had to step in to save my mare's life, the first time was when she fractured her skull in 3 places, and the second was when we had to pull her out of the creek with a tractor.

The only cool thing i know about iowa is that Slipknot came from there and have an album called Iowa lol.
Good luck with that!

I told my fiance that my one stipulation for our wedding was that my horse could be present if not directly involved. I would like to ride my horse down the isle though. I adore him. <3

Horses, wolves and snakes are my favorite animals.

But yes, I agree. They are smart, but are limited in their knowledge. They are kind of like toddlers. However, when it comes to getting someone off, if they wanted them off, they'd be off. lol. I know this from experience.

and my greatest fear...

SEEING MY EX-WIFE: Not so much a fear just something i can't stand and avoid at all costs.

Hahaha!

I would love to see my ex just so I can grab my wife right in front of her and tell to go *insert word I can't say here* herself.

Ohh and I forgot,

velvet/fleece blankets. that is second only to the EX.

Good call! Fleece reminds me a lot of cotton balls. That squishy, squeaky feeling.

If anyone jumped on my back and whipped me to make me run i would punch them in the face lol...

That mental image brought a smile to my face!

[jbean7916]

June Bugs!!! Those things are the worst!! I used to have super long hair and their creepy, pokey little legs will get stuck and they seem to dive bomb right at your head. I once dropped a whole case of water because one got to close and I fell down my porch steps trying to escape one last month!

Oh and getting my Achilles tendon slit is my absolute worst fear ever! My fiance will drag his thumb across the back of my ankle and it makes me so weak in the knees I can't stand anymore. Thinking about it will bring me to tears or cause me to have a serious anxiety attack!!!!!

in all seriousness i was staying at a hotel the night before tough mudder VT, here I am about to get hit with 10k volts run 10miles up and down a mountain so on and so on, but when i got to lay down in bed i touch one of those blankets and flip and jump out of bed like i was in the electric chair. My GF was like WTF?? and i told her and she laughed at me to no end. I official handed over a man card for that one.

Ok so your post reminded me of something else i dont like. Not achilles tendon but the tendons behind your knee. If people touch the back of my knees i will flip out. They laugh and think im ticklish but its really not that at all. My friend thought it was funny and tried to do it twice in a row after i told her not to and i picked her up and threw her into a pool. She was pissed and said i over reacted but i really dont like anyone going near there lol. I dont really like knee injuries in general either but i can handle them ok. Im always paranoid about having people touch/chop the back of my knee. And now that i think about having my achilles tendon cut that kinda freaks me out too lol. Ive rolled my ankles a few times pretty badly though so ankle injuries dont bother me nearly as bad.

I honestly have no clue what you said other than you jumped out of bed when you realized that the blanket was fleece.

I'm surprised june bugs are a common phobia. Seems like a lot of people here are freaked out by them. They are definitely annoying with their clumsiness and dive bombing. Can't say they freak me out, though. I just laugh at them when their failed dive bombings end with them spazzing out on their backs trying to right themselves.

I forgot to say that i also screamed like a little girl.
