I fear static spark, and electricuting myself when handling plugs.

When I was first year in university, I stayed at the dorm during spring break. I had to go through about 6 doors from my dorm room to the lobby to grab pizza (because the elevator was not running during spring break), and every single door I touched gave me static spark.
What's really messed up is, on the way up they'd spark me again. After living a week full of being static sparked, I feel like every piece of metal I touch will give me sparks.
I hate the surprise factor and sound of it.

And last year, I almost killed myself while plugging in my heater. The moment I plugged in the cord, it short circuited and caught on fire right where I was holding it. I ended up with just a minor burn, but I was only 1/10 of an inch away from two naked live wires.

Yeah , me too. :\
It doesn't matter what kind of insect , I just hate them all and get scared of them.

I also fear dogs , but not that much. Only if the dog is like shouting at me. xD

There sure are some other things I fear to , but I don't want to list them because I would be still sitting here in 3 hours then.

Birds, dont ask they scare the shit out of me

Well... I don't like cotton!

I just don't like the feel of it, I don't freak out when I see some.

I hate wool.
Like really, really hate it.
It freaks me out whenever I see it because its a horrible sensation to have to bit wool.
I did it once as a 5 year old and I never forgot the sensation it gave my teeth. It was horrible.

I'm grinding my teeth right now to stop myself from remembering that feeling.

Okay so, when I was little, my parents usually brought me shopping along with them to this store next to us. Inside it there was a door, and it kept moving cause of wind drafts. My dad kept telling me some monsters lived there and shit, and to this day I do NOT want to go in that store again.

Why do Parents think that shit is funny? Seriously...

It's a perk of being a parent lol

The first time my teenage daughter brought a boy home, I made sure I was sat at the dinning room table, oiling a chainsaw

Yeah, but that's funny

When I was a kid, bugs & insects scared the hell out of me, really. Even ants...
Now I've grown up a little, but I still hate fast moving insects & bugs. I can crush them easy (

), provided I wear solid shoes

I'm not scared of bugs when I see them, but if they're like in my bed (or in my neck) and I cant see them, I still freak out.

I don't have an irrational fear of anything but read a thread yesterday of a guy thats scared of trees. I forget what it's called, somethin like dendrophobia. He phoned rockstar and asked them to remove the trees from GTAIV cuz he is scared to play it now. The vids on youtube.

I don't like insects, or touching live or raw fish because of their slippery skin it makes me spasm out >_<

Sometimes like on shock sites where the things jump out and scream, the picture gets fixed in my mind for a few hours and I sort of feel a bit wierd and paranoid

Poisons. Anything with a warning label on it. Not so bad about it anymore, I've had a lot of time to come to terms with it. It used to drive my dad crazy though, since he was a jack of all trades, and had me helping him quite often. I remember him handing me a jug of muriatic acid once, a pretty powerful cleaning agent. I dropped it as soon as I saw the skull and crossbones on it. Coulda been a big big mess. He was righteously pissed.

I know exactly what it stems from too. When I was a kid I was into chemistry, wanted to be a scientist. I was about 7 years old and was trying to recreate an impossible experiment that I saw in a Batman comic book. I had glass cigar tubes and everything I could find under the sink in the bathroom, cologne, soap, face powder, various cleaners, etc... I mixed potion after potion, trying to get that frog to turn into a vicious monster, but nothing was working. In the shaking of a "test tube" I accidentally got a little of the stuff in my mouth, it tasted like hell and it burned. Scared the crap out of me. I didn't know if I was going to die by poisoning, or turn into a vicious monster. Luckily, neither happened, but the experience left it's mark.

The frog didn't fair too well either...

I'm afraid of ET.

 

[PapiChulo]

I'm afraid of fiery damnation for not believing in the illegitimate Hobo "son" of an invisible sky deity from 4k years ago.

 

[distorted.freque]

I hate bugs too. Especially cockroaches. I've had some bad experience with cockroaches...One crawled up my leg one time. Another was swimming in my cereal (I just looked away and when I was about to reach for my bowl, there it was). And I had one fly straight to me. I was afraid it was going to go to my mouth which was open. From screaming.

Whenever I get ANY pain in my arm or chest I worry i'm having a heart attack. Oh, and swallowing pills etc without water freaks me out and I worry i'll choke.

OK . . .

Anyhow it's funny to see what people can be afraid of sometimes.
