    Bugs, not all but the ones with long legs or the ones that cause people to act like they are in bath salts and die. So pretty much spiders and centipedes and the like.

    Clowns
    Balloon Animals
    Clowns with and/or making balloon animals
    Mascots (even though I was one once)
    Spiders (I killed my very first one this year without screaming...usually if I kill I scream, a warrior-type yell, but not really.)
    You would hate me. I want to learn to make balloon animals lol.

    Rubbing your eyebrows the wrong way!!! cringe!

    OMG. Me too - my hubs likes to do it to bother me and I get all shivery and blech. I hate it!

    I also have a silly phobia about Pigeons. I think it's they way that they move their heads around all jerky and such.

    I am also afraid of the river in our city; it is murky water and I'm convinced it is full of bodies.

    I have an irrational fear of measuring tapes.. I always feel like when it slides back super quick it's going to chop off one of my limbs.

    oh so this!!!!! I never used to have issues with it.... then went to Walmart one Christmas, and actually had to leave my cart of goodies and exit the store! Now when I go to Walmart, get in elevators, and airplanes.... heart starts beating super fast, I get flushed and feel like I need to run.

    Pregnancy, pregnant women, childbirth and new born babies (it's called tokophobia and it's a real thing)

    I also have tokophobia, but mine's just the pregnancy and childbirth. Literally makes me want to vomit just thinking about it. (Seriously, I gag and stuff)

    I don't really think I have tokophobia or anything -- I have been in the room when a friend gave birth, twice, and although I am militantly childfree by choice (NEVER having kids myself) I don't really get that freaked out thinking about that stuff.

    However, a LOT of baby related items gross me out and/or freak me out. The scent of baby shampoo, lotion, formula, and especially baby wipes...SO gross to me. Really disgusting. Honestly to me those smells are worse than dirty diapers.

    i am afraid of fish. I wont swim in the lake or ocean because I am afraid one will touch me. I get irked out even thinking about it.

    I don't mind fish at all even in that situation. But on the very rare occasion that I do more than just kind of wade around in waist-deep water, I'm always imagining snakes in the water or a big jagged shard of glass/debris that will cut me up!

    Spiders, especially big furry ones.

    Wasps. I run and scream like a little girl if they are anywhere near me.

    Anyone touching my feet.

    Living in Chicago I am super afraid of walking under the above ground train tracks as they go by, since a lot of them are as tall as building. I saw sparks fly off one once and every since that it was a no go.

    Centipedes-- I mean the really big ones. I woke up one morning in Costa Rica and heard something clicking in the sink, and when I looked, there was this centipede that had to be ten inches long and about as thick as my thumb, running around and around in the metal sink, and each leg made a clicking sound when it hit.

    Click click click click click
