Do you have a phobia?

[tweedledee]

I hate Moths, I can't stand them. Whenever one gets in the house I get my wife to kill it. In return, I deal with any mad dogs.

No more phobias since I quit smoking pot

I don't know what's more amazing, the fact that of all God's creatures I've encountered moths are the ones I have a problem with (used to be terrified, not so bad now), or that I was talking about my phobia of moths two hours before I read this thread
I can't kill any living thing that doesn't try to kill me first and even moths get a chance to get the hell away from me...
....there was a big bastard in my bathroom (I was tiling late) last night and I managed to trap it under a measuring jug and shout the wife to pass me something to trap it with as I evacuated the little shitter out of the window

Also, I also have major issues with heights, which isn't too good for a Man. Quant. Surv. in UK construction

Wet wood. Anything made of wood - lollipop sticks, wooden spoons, anything that gets wet on a regular basis I can't stand to touch. It sends shivers down my spine. Same for hairy fruit - peaches and apricots. I can't eat them without peeling them first!

Apart from that, nothing.

Moths aren't a problem - I wait for them to get about four foot from the ground, then you'll hear the click of teeth and know the dog's got them! She'll hunt and kill moths and any other insects in the room.

Syringes, needles, immunizations, blood tests, IVs. I have had this phobia since early childhood and it still makes me go inexplicably crazy every time a doctor has to stick a needle in my arm.

Seriously, no known phobias here. Snakes, spiders, heights, no problem.

yeah those used to freak me out as a kid, I'd always catch it out of the corner of my eye and think something was in the pool. Along those lines- DId an underground river tube trip in Belize this spring. Headlamps only. The water was crystal clear and up to 20 ft deep. Huge boulders underwater. With the funny light it was freaky. It seemed like they were moving. Had to keep the left side of me brain going, reassuring myself the biggest creature underneath me were the blind catfish we saw in the shallows

Probably wouldn't have a fear of "pool drains" if you'd keep your "privates" away .... get stuck once and I'm sure that'll put the fear of God and pool drains in anybody

I don't really have any myself...but it makes me very uncomfortable to be around people who are...especially if they're claustrophobic, afraid of heights, afraid of bugs, mice, dogs, etc...or just very high-strung


hyper kids tend to get on my nerves too :P

I have a thing about finding hair in my food though

moths are very harmless and don't bother me one bit.
The bugs that tend to bug me most are flies, fleas, musquitos, centipeds, wasps, beatles, some spiders and big ants (usually if they are inside rather than outside)

and ultimately, don't want to be anywhere near maggots!

[indolikaa]

Oh I forgot about that one.

My upchuck reflex is automatic. There's nothing worse than working on a steaming dish of macaroni and cheese and finding the spoonful you just shoved in your face is still attached to the bowl it came from.

My wife has hair down to her tailbone, too. hiver:

[flaninacupboard]

it's like a tradition, there's always hair in my food (i've got pretty long hair for a dude.)

Phobias: the dark (please feel free to take the piss), aliens (once more, piss taking allowed), the noise hands make on polystyrene/certain plastics and heights. although heights is more a sensible fear than a phobia - taking 20 minutes to unpack your new dvd player because you don't want to touch the polystyrene isn't!!

I once found a 5 foot black greasy hair in my takeaway food.
Ugh!

My friend found a "cow's tooth" in a meat pie. Yeah... right.. it was
of course a rodent tooth the size of a heifer! He complained direct to
the company who sent out a rep to take away the sample.
Later came the phone call about the cow's tooth conspiracy

What made me sick was, as a thank you, they sent him a
case of pies. He ate each one over the course of the same week.

I don't have any real phobias (the dentist is more what flan said - a sensible fear) but If I see someone throw up, it takes all my will
power not to follow suit.

You know the story. Young lad with
his two brothers are sent to get the family fish'n'chips. Outside
the shop a dog comes along, chucks up and then begins to
eat it. Three brothers also give out the multicolored yawn.
The fish'n'chip owner hastily attempts to wash away the
evidence outside his shop with a weak hose. Customers
consider if they are going to order anything. A few dry
retches are heard.

dogs eat their own hurl?
And owners kiss their dogs?

[BobV]

Magots. I hate it when I find them in my rice. That's probably why I can't stand Chineze food. You never know if you've gotten them all out.

But my dogs only hurl after they've eaten from the cat's litter box.

I found a dirty bandaid in a big mac.

Dogs can also lick themselves...and you know as well as I do, if we could do that we would never get off the couch :P :P :P

Offline - Quit being a puss, pull the tooth yourself.

I'm not really afraid of anything that would be considered a phobia. I don't much like snakes, and I jump if one suprises me but after the initial shock, I'm OK with them. Of course we have the high toxic gardner snake here in ohio. Fear would certainly be different if I had to live in harmony with Rattle snakes or worse

[tgpo]

The only thing that bother me are people messing with their eyes. People touching their eyes, eye surgurey, people putting in contacts. I can't handle seeing any of that. I can handle any thing else, but eyes for some strange reason bother me.

i bet you loved BJ_M's old avatar!

i used to poke a friend of mine in the eye at school while our teacher was watching - she hated it!!

That didn't bother me. Movies are very different than real life
