    telephones. I hate them. I NEVER make phone calls if I can avoid it, and only answer if the caller ID lets me know who it is. I will happily drive across town rather than make a call.
    Clowns, Santa Claus. Sports mascots. who is that under there? I can't see if its someone dangerous.
    Looking out the window after dark. Those ads with the Burger King king freaked me out to no end. If I glanced out the window and saw that out there, I'd still be in a room shreiking somewhere.

    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.

    I used to have a ferret who LOVED to eat those!! She would have little legs and wings sticking out of her mouth when we was munching them.


    I'm clausterphobic. I'm afraid of being trapped, or having a blanket over my head. If someone pins me under a blanket I will FREAK out!! and then they will die.... :mad:

    Spiders
    Scary children in movies (like the little girl in Dune or the little boy in The Ring)
    Looking at the clock and it's 11:11 or 1:11

    Cotton. No not like a shirt... Like a cotton ball. So creepy and gross. Worse than finger nails on a chalk board. My brothers and sisters will forever make fun of me... As I'm sure some of you will. LOL.

    My mom has this and my best friend growing up. She won't take it out with her fingers when she opens a pill bottle or whatever. Also the sound a cotton ball makes, like the squeaking when you rub it together, total makes them go bananas.

    Yes... I tortured them both.

    Peeing in the dark. I just can't do it, if the electricity happens to go out I'll hold it, if we're camping I'll wait until morning.

    I hate with a passion June Beetles, I literally smashed one with a rather large landscaping boulder and it tried to come after me while hissing......I'm shuddering right now even thinking about it.

    Scary movies, can't watch them at all - even stupid ones - I will stay awake all night in fear. Also strait jackets. If I see a picture of one I feel all yucky and shivery.

    Cobwebs you run into on a trail!
    Tornadoes (and I was a storm spotter, haha)
    I used to be terrifed of chickens
    Oh yeah I forgot one, open staircases! But that's because my brother used to grab my ankles from behind! :mad:

    Coulrophobia: Fear of Clowns.

    Not like I would go running away from them but I just don't want them near me.

    Yet, I'm not afraid of snakes, spiders, bugs, or rodents.

    yes! i once worked in the floral department of a grocery/mega store. always had to fill latex balloon orders for people - i have always wondered how i survived working there without being commited :\

    i'm also not very fond of spiders, clowns, and those creepy freaks who wear the full body spandex suits at sporting events.

    shopping malls at christmas time make my hands shake and very irritable. It has to be the crowds I can't stand people who get so close to strangers and walk really slow.

    OMG! I thought I was the only person on the planet with this! I make my wife take the cotton balls out of new bottles of Aspirin, and I can't use cotton as a wipe, cleaning pad, etc.

    I've found my long-lost twin!

    Flying bugs. Bees, wasps, yellow jackets. One landed on my hand in marching band, and I tossed my flute. My friends made fun of me for sacrificing my flute for a yellow jacket. I even don't like flies. That whole buzzing sound creeps me right out. I will change direction if I see one.

    Ironic that my college mascot is the yellow jacket.

    lol. If you read the rest of the thread a lot of people commented about knowing people who have this fear.

    It's actually pretty common :)

    I don't know what that is, but just reading this terrified me!

    The Ferris Wheel... I'm scared of heights, and I always feel like I'm going to be dumped out of those rickety little cars. I HATE them! But strap me into a roller coaster, and I have the time of my life. Why? Because I have a lap belt, a shoulder harness (that I pull uncomfortably tight just in case), and a lot of time, another padded bar that comes down on your lap. No falling out there! :)

    Oh yeah, and clowns... *shudder!*
