Fears and Phobias


Blackie

Recommended Posts

I hate Spiders and most other black creepy crawlys like Moths and Daddy longlegs,ect.

 

I get worried in lifts and small crowded spaces.

 

And I have always, always hated the Dentist until I found a decent guy who is patient so now I go regulary but I still almost scratch the material of his chair everytime. ;)

I'm not a big fan of heights. I can go up tall buildings so long as there is a substantial barrier preventing me from falling. I can't walk on glass floors at the top of towers.

 

I used to be ok with spiders as a kid, pick them up etc, but now I try to avoid them. I wouldn't say I was scared of them, but I won't go around picking them up anymore.

 

Top of the Eiffel tower not you favourite place then Col.....:D

 

:rlol:

 

Clowns.

 

I know quite a few girls who claim to be scared of Clowns. What exactly about them is so scary?

 

Lost...

My sense of humour. Last seen on New Years Eve, its small, pink and furry...answers to the name Ralph.

 

:D

I have trouble with sticky labels, like the ones they put on apples. Freak me right out! (How's that for an irrational fear?)

 

Actually reading that reminded me I also can not stand touching Polystyrene, or hearing it being rubbed together. ARGH, horrid.

Clowns.

 

My fiancée is terrified of clowns. Even if one appears on the TV for just a moment she will scream and hide.

 

I also know someone who is scared of unripe bananas. Ripe ones he is OK with but you can actually chase him with a green banana; very amusing.

 

Personally I am scared of centipedes + millipedes. It’s something about the way they look and move. I cannot stand them; especially the huge tropical ones.

I wouldn't say i was afraid of mice but they have the ability to surprise you! In our old terraced house we got mice and I got some humane traps to sort out the problem as there were only a couple at the time.

 

They were in a little lean to at the rear of the house where we kept of washer and dryer. I put the humane trap on the top of the washing machine with a bit of rabbit food inside and went to bed. The traps are angled at about 30 degrees to if anthing steps in there in see saws and the trap shuts with the mouse inside. I came down the following morning and the trap was shut.......:) I then realised that Mrs H had put the washing machine on and assumed the vibration had activated the trap..:rolleyes:

 

I made the mistake of opening the trap as it was facing me. Imagine my shock as the little bastard jumped out and hit me on the chin and dropped onto my chest. It landed on the floor and disappeared under the machine. I screamed like a girl at the moment of surprise. It flew at me with a real look of aggression with it's little teeth sticking out and it's eyes bulging. I sh!t myself to be honest....:D

 

Mrs H found it all hilarious!!:(

Serial killers who wear the skin of their victims.

 

That version of Russian Roulette where 'Mad Dave' sticks the gun barrel up your bottom.

 

Being buried alive.

 

The usual stuff really.

 

How about people wearing ice hockey masks wielding a chainsaw??;)

if I see a spider I scream and stand on the couch until Ste has disposed of it.

 

 

That's what I do lol, and sometimes when Paul can't be bothered to get rid of it I sit with my feet up scanning the room the whole time in case the bloody thing moves towards me.:(

 

My Cat Mr.Binx loves eating all kinds of creatures so quite often I point them out to him and he will eat them ;)

My guinea pig's useless if it's not celery he doesn't want to know. If ever Ste isn't there I have to get a glass and try and put it over it but not go within 3 feet of it...it's quite a nack (sp);)

I tried that but even IF I manage to get the glass on it and stick the paper under the minute I want to pick it up and the Spider moves I freak out. :(

If you can trap a spider under a glass without getting within 3 feet of it then I want to be your manager!!;)

 

Oh and it's knack btw.....:)

Oh no no no, you put the glass over the spider and leave it there until he comes home!!;)

 

One September we where having an invasion (2 and 3 per night), I had come home from work and I think there had been 3 little blighters knocking about. But they where the big kind with knee caps and tattoo's, so when Ste came home he was surprised to find most of our glasses dotted about the living room each with a little friend in.:sly:
