Members who joined more recently than, what, 5 years ago (?), probably don't understand reference to the "tgpo" option.

Anyway, it used to be any poll just had to have a "tgpo" option. I voted for that, maybe out of nostalgia.

Heights, but if there was an option for 'Family Get Togethers' I would click that too.


I find both fears worsen depending upon my stress levels.
The other day I wouldn't go on the Sky Ride at the shore and I have been on it about a dozen times over the years.

Must be time for a vacation

That option was for nostalgia reasons.

Wouldn't that be considered dread instead of fear?

[cal_tony]

No phobias whatsoever. However, I can think of many things that I would rather not do. But if I had to I would do them.

What comes to mind for me would be to have to crawl thru a 500' long 24" dia pipe in complete darkness with spider webs in it.

An undesirable task, to say the least. But if I had to do it. I'd just do it. I've always been an adrenaline junkie, so for me it's always a good challenge to face my fears and win.

Agoraphobia, don't like crowds.

[redwudz]

For newcomers, there's still an entry in our Glossary for tgpo: "tgpo
Short for The Great Pat-o. He is the coolest guy ever."

However I suspect he wrote that himself.

spiders

[budz]

Elevators....cause when I was a kid I was stuck in one for 1 hour.

You should add a fear of spiders option (spiders aren't strictly speaking an insect)

My fears are:
1. Spiders
2. Being late for the orgy

Close enough for me.

[Nitemare]

Fear of enclosed spaces... sometimes. I think it's more of a fear of being restrained. I can handle elevators but I can't sleep under a blanket or be in my car without having the window open at least crack, even in winter. When backed into a corner (or restrained/herded in any way) I freak out.

I once had a bad fall and my co-workers tried to hold me still in case of a back injury. I screamed and came up swinging. Is there a name for this?

[mikel]

anatidaaephobia (the fear that somewhere, somehow, a duck is watching you).

[cal_tony]

2. Being late for the orgy

I might add

Worse than being late............ NOT BEING READY..... for the orgy.....

The final answer that combine the top 3 is :

Not really except public speaking on high places.

Crowds.
