Your phobias

As the title says. I'll begin:
Fear of:
  • Darkness (heightened if I do something horror-related)
  • Being alone for too long (heightened if I do something horror-related)
  • Injections
  • Hospitals
  • Dentists
  • Dogs (after a massive bite)
  • Snakes
  • Spiders (big ones only)
  • Girls (not kidding!)
  • Old People
  • Certain Illnesses
  • Total silence
  • Sleep (heightened if I do something horror-related)
  • Cartoons (some of them)
  • Nightmares
  • Sleep Paralysis
  • Pain
  • Surprise Creepy (Use "TVTropes" in case you don't understand this)
  • Heights (3rd floor or higher, and I start breathing heavily)
  • Wet floors
  • Escalators
  • Planes
  • Boats
  • Helicopters
  • Skyscrapers
  • Fast cars or motorcycles
  • Elevators (Blame "Blue Shift" on that!)
  • Certain types of urinals and toilets (as if they're going to bite my *ss)
  • Cats
  • Questions regarding my life
  • Death
  • Heart attacks
  • Precordial catch syndrome (I have it, GOD it's bad!)
  • Luna Games (yeah, sue me!)
  • Falling
  • Wildfires
  • Bears
  • Ice Skating
  • Aliens (what if there could be something out there... unknown to us...)
So, list yours!

RE: Your "phobia" list

  • Long Lists
  • Bullet Points
  • Heights
  • Falling
  • Large Dogs
  • Spiders
  • Pretty much all insects capable of flight
  • Public Speaking (i.e. giving an oral report)
  • Elevators
  • truly ignorant people
  • Ponies (not MLP, actual small horses)
  • Isolation

About it I guess.

I rate it 3 memes.

RE: Your "phobia" list

Games have a way of scaring the crap out of me.
However, I've yet to come across a situation I was afraid of in real life.
Not sure if balls of steel, or need to do more things.

Well, my list compiles everything from real life (with one or two as an exception).

Dead insects, especially if they were squashed. Strangely enough I do not have any huge problems with living ones as long as they stay off me.

Ummm...what's your point? I can't tell.

What I said is that the list talks about real-life fears. I thought that Obliviator said that he only had fears in games, and not real life

(BTW, I updated the list with a couple more that I just remembered).

RE: Your "phobia" list

I don't really fear these but I definetley don't like them; heights and spiders.

Wow, with all them fears you must live an interesting life Nemet!

1) I happen to enjoy the dark. It's peaceful.
2) I am a solitary creature. Sunlight? Hissssss.....
3) Injections don't bother me at all. Hell, I watch them needle me. Freaks them out. Fun stuff.
4) Hospitals don't scare me. They make me uncomfortable. Sick people everywhere, everything is super sterilized. The smell bothers me.
5) Dentists have the tendency to stab me when they do their thing. But I know it's needed. It's just hard to not punch the dentist in the face sometimes.
6) I love dogs. Smile
7) My roommate has a snake. He's awesome.
8) Spiders. The way they move is creepy, but they don't scare me. Had one drop right onto my nose once. Surprised me, but I squashed him.
9) Girls. Don't get me started. The things are confusing, but not frightening.
10) I love old people. As long as they're not the cranky type. Then I dislike them strongly.
11) Illnesses suck. However, my immune system kicks ass, so I only get sick every three years or so.
12) My only problem with silence is the sound of silence. That ringing, man.
13) Sleep. Favorite thing to do EVER.
14) Cartoons. These things can be really weird. Like one episode of Invader Zim where he harvests organs. Weird stuff, man.
15) I did this to myself once. I thought it was cool. Maybe I'm just dumb.
16) I'd rather not be in pain. But I can handle it if need be.
17) I dunno what that is and too lazy to google. So sue me.
18) I've done Parkour before. It's intense. My inner adrenaline junkie loves heights.
19) I fail to see how this is frightening. Perhaps it links into the pain one?
20) Escalators. Don't get this one either.
21) Planes, boats, helicopters...all are pretty neat.


Again, not sure if balls of steel, or need to get out more.

Everyone seems to have spiders on their list.

I, for one, happen to really like spiders. They fascinate me. Of course as long as they stay off me, and away from my food.
