that list is really addicting to read. I need to find something more productive to do
Yeah. I'm fucking terrified of what is going to happen to the world in 50 years when the people who grow up in today's education system and culture are in charge of things.
Fair enough... but far too few young people today can read or write sensibly, and there is less and less emphasis in our schools on the liberal arts. It's frightening. When I get undergrad papers to grade and they have used textspeak in an academic essay, I not only cringe, I want to throttle somebody
I resemble that remark, Durrasch!!
I have arachnophobia, a morbid fear of spiders. I have been in many embarrassing situations because of this. I don’t think you guys want to know..
I have a phobia of heights ..my other one is swimming where it is so deep I cannot see the bottom of the area I'm swimming in...I cannot swim in deep lakes and certain seas...freaks me out
My favorite phobia of all time is Triskaidekaphobia...the fear of the number 13. I am not afraid of the number 13 but it sure is a fun word to say. LOL
I'm afraid of mirrors. it's not a phobia i just get uncomfortable around them. A) look at me and b) in horror films people are standing by a mirror and either lean over and theres someone dead behind them, they turn into something dead, something dead pops out at them, or they lean down and when they come up something is behind them. I hate mirrors.
Even when you're blindfolded, Hindsite is 20/20
ooh, Blind... that makes me think of my irrational fear of walking by parked cars in the dark. Something freaky is going to reach out from under one of them and slash my Achilles tendon as I walk by, and then it's going to eat me on the sidewalk. I don't know whether that one has a name.
Spiders. I'm frightened of the huge ugly ones that are completely harmless, but the small venomous ones don't bother me.
I'm literally scared to death of all bugs, even the ones that are harmless and have wings.

Spiders.
A psychiatrist friend of mine actually said my fear of spiders was the worst he'd ever seen.
I actually flipped out at the spider scene in the second Harry Potter movie and had to leave the theater.
And my #$^*&$#@ husband has never let me forget it....he's getting leftovers for dinner tonight now that I think about it...:-)

I have a friend who saw a spider in my house like a year ago. She was over the other day and kept looks around. Finally I asked her what she was doing. She said she was looking for spider. Because the one she saw a year ago probably had friends. She then I saw a picture in my biology text book and flipped.
I happen to like spiders. When I was 5 I had a pet tarantula named harry that would sleep on my head.
Thats not right how they treated that poor gator, they could have damaged his eyes or broken his legs. There is no point in doing to the gator what they did, I know they have to tap his mouth closed but they dont need the rest, that is just cruel punishment and they should be sent to jail for it. No one has the right to abuse an animal.
They did everything by the book with the gator and it wasn't hurt.
