    Black field crickets.

    I once was trapped in the aquarium section in a pet store, innocently looking at fish when I realized right next to me was a big clear pannier with a lid full of crickets (food for lizards etc). I was paralyzed with fear and was embarrassed at the same time. To get out I would have had to walk past it, and I admit I had to stand there for a few minutes talking myself into making my feet move so I could get away.

    I usually don't mind spiders and other crawlies (although I don't particularly like them). For some reason, those black field crickets are for me a combination of what fear of spiders and roaches are for other people.

    I have to put my reading glasses on everytime I walk past a magpie, because my brain is convinced it's going to fly over and peck my eyes out.

    Not sure I ever want to watch The Birds.

    I don't trust the way cats walk and I hate things flapping anywhere near me

    I have a phobia of vomiting!!
    That's one of the ones I listed too! I get panic attacks. I was at a bachelorette party this weekend and the bride threw up, and I had a panic attack and had to go sleep in my car. :frown:

    Spiders, roaches, water bugs, math problems, and women that shave off their eyebrows and paint on the thick McDonald's arch style eyebrows.

    I'm terrified of a lot of things but mostly birds which isn't ideal when you live by the sea!

    I'm also petrified of Jurassic Park which is definitely my weirdest phobia lol

    Anyone who is genuinely kind to me. Either brings tears, a panic attack or a strong urge to escape

    SPIDERS - actually any insect really. My biggest fear of all time is waking up in the middle of the night because a spider is crawling in my mouth.

    Someone hiding under my car and cutting my achilles tendon when I go to get in it.

    Accidentally eating something that is moldy or has a hair or bug in it. :sick:

    Making a phone call to anyone I don't know personally. Thank goodness for online-ordering for pizza!

    Things with more than 6 legs. I can handle ants, bees, or other insects (I don't LIKE them, but not afraid of them). Cockroaches just disgust me. But spiders and centipedes--HELL NO. If it's a small spider I'll just squish it, but the ones that would "crunch" freak me out. Centipedes are the ultimate, just because of the way they move. Thankfully my cat likes to kill them for me. I'll put up with the occasional hairball on the carpet as long as she keeps ridding my home of the crawly things!

    Driving alongside another vehicle, especially one with a large blind spot. I always try to get out of other drivers' blind spots, just for safety, but sometimes it's not avoidable. I'm scared the truck or whatever will come over in my lane and sideswipe me. Not that it's ever happened to me, but still.

    When I was in school, on the first day I was always afraid that my class had been moved to a different room and everyone knew but me. This lasted all the way through college and even grad school. Again, it never happened but I was nervous about it anyway.

    I am scared to death of clowns. Yep that's pretty normal as far as fears go. Another thing I'm scared of is porta pottys! Not only are they disgusting, they are scary too. I also have a fear that when I flush a public toilet it will explode and spew nasty *kitten* water all over me. I have actually had nightmares about being trapped in a porta potty and I can't get out.

    Ok, enough of my odd topics for tonight. I'm going to bed!

    What's your weird fear??
    good thing she didn't live in the Tulsa Ok. area . they busted a old man sitting down inside of one this summer. yep they call the fire dept, to hose him off before putting him in their car .lmao
