What are you afraid of that other people thing is weird funny or crazy?

Me, I'm terrified of mushrooms. Can't look at them without shuddering, and there is no way I will touch one!

So what about you?

    I'm terrified of basements. I mean I guess it's not that weird, but it's probably weird that I've lived in my new house since October and I have only been down there a handful of times >_<

    I think dinosaurs are cute!
    And basements, totally understandable! The cellar at work freaks me out so much!

    The only thing that really bothers me is Crane Flies. Ugly *kitten*. Fly like they're drunk and spaz out when you repeatedly stamp on them, rather than just, you know, DYING.

    Making phone calls.

    Yes, seriously. I don't think I've ordered a pizza, chinese takeout, etc in 5 years... because i absolutely loathe picking up the phone and calling people!

    My very bestest friend of the last 5 years? I've called her six times. Four times, it was " What do you want from Timmies? " on the way to her house.

    I hate it even more if I'm calling someone I don't know. Need to schedule an appointment? Nope. Call a child's parents when their kid is sick? ................. only if they are REALLY sick and I don't have a choice.

    Call the school? Nuh uh.
    Call to check the hours of a store? Heck no.
    Call to report a problem? Never.

    Scorpions. Can't stand them. Can't be near or around them. I send my BF into the reptile section of a pet store to do recon before I go into look at the snakes and spiders. I change the channel if they come on TV


    Not going to have it. Nope. *shudders*

    Same here! It takes me a long time to be able to make a phone call!


    Clowns seem to be a popular one!

    Scorpions are pretty scary

    Couldn't agree more. Called them Doing-doings (the onomatopoeia) growing up, based on their tendency to bounce up and down in the general facial direction.

    Also pretty terrified of kittens, when they're that just-able-to-walk phase. The way their tails stick up like antenna.. Ugh.

    There's a window in my shower that opens to the front of my house, luckily there is a bush in front of it or people could see into my shower. Anyway, when I take a shower at night and the moonlight and streetlights are coming through that bush, I always think someone is standing outside getting ready to break the window and kill me. Totally ridiculous, I know.

    But mushrooms are so awesome! I've had a snake for a pet, spiders don't phase me one bit, clowns, scorpions, nothing.

    I don't like butterflies. They creep me out. I don't know why it is or where it came from either.
    I don't like heights either. I almost had a panic attack on Splash Mountain lol.
