    Ants! <shiver> If I see even ONE tiny little ant in my house I will spend the next half hour searching for more.

    Other insects don't bother me one bit, just those creepy crawly teeny tiny ants.

    Not my fear, but hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words. That cracks me up.

    I posted this in one of the other threads a couple weeks ago. LOL!!

    I am scared shitless of spiders. I get the chills every time I see one.

    I think I fear my kids needing me and I'm dead because I couldn't not eat a damn Swiss Roll.

    My bank balance.....

    chrematophobia, this is the fear of money or the things associated with it.

    Oh believe me, I'm not afraid of money....It's the "I've worked my *kitten* off all week and look at that crappy pay that's only gonna be in my account for all of an hour before my bills claim it all..." that scares me! :D

    Oh, and I HATE train horns. Just cannot stand them and not sure why. Developed in my late 30's.

    I'm afraid that when I order french fries I will somehow be burned by the french fry oil while I'm paying for my order.

    So do you typically order fries behind the counter?
