Live. Those little bastards are like spiders with weapons.
I sometimes have nightmares about being in a room with those massive snow crabs that are like big enough to crush trashcans but I always find a sweet gun somewhere and go Duke Nukem on that ass.

I was going to post 2 of my phobias, that have never happened, but got worried that if I posted what they are, they might happen. :ohno: :horrorsurprise: :runaway:

Superstition can be so paralyzing.

I was going to say horses, but now I can't because someone else is afraid of it. But also, _33 can't. So he's either going to have to edit his post or delete the entire thread. Your move, _33.

large bodies of water at night. they're just so much freakier when it's dark.

I am generally afraid of people who say they're afraid of nothing. They're either liars, or very unstable people.
-
I'm constantly afraid that I will accidentally slash my wrists on sharp things.
-
Sometimes in the middle of the night I have to open the shower curtain just make make sure no one is in there.
I'm pretty sure that all that urine in my shower is keeping the bad guys out though.
-
upper decks of stadiums is a good one.
I love snorkeling/swimming but get freaked out when I can't see the bottom. if it's that deep who knows what's down there. and it can jet up to the surface and grab me. nope nope nope nope NOPE.

I get super nervous driving through highways on high cliffs. I think to myself, what if I just made one bad move, and donezo.

existential angst can be very cruel. i nearly had a panic attack in the louvre because of the fear/realization that it was only me stopping me from going ham on all of those priceless sculptures.

I'm afraid of being a statistic.
Like the 1/1,000,000(check my math here mocat) that the plane crashes, or the roller coaster fails.
Also scared of driving on a 2 lane highway that is not divided because I am afraid the other moron is going to cross the center line and head on me at 60+.

Many people have clown phobias. I used to not GAF about clowns when I was a kid but I find them to begetting progressively more creepy as I get older.

Mayonnaise.
It's vile. When my wife puts it on a dish, I have to completely rinse it clean and use a scrub brush before I'll put my hands on it to put it in the dishwasher.

I used to work with a girl that freaked out about pickles. I saw her almost have a panic attack at a restaurant because there was a pickle on her plate.
-
Sometimes when I'm driving really fast I wonder if one of my wheels might fall off. I've never slowed down because of it. Just aware that it's on the table.

No panic attacks for me, but I refuse to touch or ingest it.

On two lane highways I ponder the statistics of a car/truck coming at me blowing out a tire at the precise moment we pass, the odds that that particular tire woudl cause them to wreck into me head on, and the odds of surviving. I've cringed a few times a big semi has gone past really fast.

that's exactly it. my brain is pretty reliable, but is it 100% reliable? what gets engineered to that spec? nothing, that's what. even if it's 99.99999999 % reliable at telling my arms not to jerk to the right or left while driving, it's just a matter of time before i do it.

Pickles.
an old roommate of mine thought it'd be funny to throw a pickle at me. i punched him in the gut for doing it. i also could smell pickles on my skin for a week, no matter how much i washed the area. they are rough ridin' disgusting.
mayo is #2 in disgusting food, i would probably just throw away all those dishes panj. pretty sure it would ruin the taste of any food that ever came in contact with that dish again.

I remember one time everybody's favorite guy, JoelCat, once had a freakout about the driving existentialism.
"What if i crossed the median into oncoming traffic?"
It's crossed my mind every once in a while. Usually try to think of something else immediately. Don't need to be going down that rabbit hole at 80mph.

One time bubbles did cross the line into oncoming traffic and almost killed miegecat and I. By one time I mean Jan 1, 2013 in a desolate part of the Texas panhandle (redundant)

I would kill my brain if it ever tried to do something like that.

Existential dread seems to be getting the better of gEers as a whole... i get it sometimes in the office, i think about how only me stops me from cussing out that one dumbass or slapping that one ass and getting me shitcanned

slapping asses always seems like it should be so much more fun than it is.

I am scared of shorter people with small, stubby fingers and toes. I shouldn't be scared of them, right?
Also, zombies... they aren't even real?!?

Is there a resident psychologist, that can give us a diagnosis, or an idea of what these fears are caused by? TIA

One time when I was really little my babysitter took me to a concert at Kemper Arena. It was really loud and stuff inside and the walls seemed like they were shaking and I had to leave because I was really scared that the arena was going to collapse and kill thousands of people. To this day I have some reservations about concert venues and concerts in arenas like that. :frown:

Still waiting for a numbers check chief.
The odds of a passenger being killed on any one flight are approximately 8 million to one. From PlaneCrashInfo.com:
If a passenger boarded a flight at random, once a day, everyday, it would statistically be over 21,000 years before he or she would be killed.

Babies scare the crap out of me. I hate putting clothes on my 6 month old. The other day I was putting his arm through the sleeve of a shirt and when his arm reached the end of the sleeve all of his fingers were bent straight backwards. I was like crap I just mumped up my kids hand but he was fine. I worry that I'm gonna dislocate an arm or leg on the little guy and everyone will think I'm a bad dad. :cry: :ohno:

Relax. They don't remember much that happens before 4 yrs old. If you do end up messing up your kids arm or fingers, just tell them they were born that way and that plenty of ppl are born with challenges they must overcome.

Kat kid is spot on here. When I put my daughter on my shoulders I always freak out that I'll drop her and put her down real quick.

I am absolutely terrified of having my back turned to heights. I can stand on an observation deck and lean out, Ferris Bueller style, but I have to walk backwards away from the window. One of my worst nightmare is being tied to a chair that is leaning back, but cemented in on the edge of a skyscraper like so

This was especially terrifying in the dream I had last night about being in a shitty canopy hammock over the grand canyon and feeling like the side by my head would release first, leaving me to try and save myself by catching something with my feet.
Holy rough ridin' crap.
