Brown recluse. Just look at 'em, they're fuckin' evil. Other spiders I don't mind. Even finding a dead BR is guaranteed to fuck up my sleep for that night.

I have a few of the traditional phobias, like drowning, snakes, spiders, etc. But my bigest fear is something happening to a loved one and not being able to stop it / do anything about it.

I don't know if it has a name or not, but my only irrational fear is to go into a public restroom and have a guy standing at the next urinal who isn't really peeing. My mind just goes NUTS wondering what he's really there for. Is he trying to glimpse my meat?? Does he get some weird delight out of standing there acting nonchalant?? It's so terrifying I usually just flee without washing my hands afterward. YIKES!!

Lacing sued shoes, scrubbing carpet by hand, and driving in heavy traffic.
All of these things make me sick to my stomach and shakey.

ETA afraid of heights as well.

I'm also scared of heights. Whe walking on bridges, I walk in the middle and make sure that I'm ready to grab on to something in case it collapses.

Bereaucrats who ask "what are you afraid of"? I actually had a grossly overweight employee of CA DMV in the North McDowell office ask me that once many moons ago. I cannot tell you the things that go through your mind in that situation.

I don't know if this is really a phobia or not,but my biggest fear is weapons malfuctions. I mean I have real nightmares about it. I spend alot of ammo before I trust a firearm and never completely,and if I get a bad one it gets fixed asap or dumped. I always have a backup and extra mags if I'm carrying a auto and clean and inspect my carry poppers daily.....

1. Spiders

2. Mosquitos (I get a big welt when I get bitten by one. The biggest I had was the size of an average elephant's foot.)

3. Enclosed spaces

4. Those guys who go door-to-door dressed in black trousers, white button-down shirts, tie, and who carry a bible.

Big centipedes and not really a phobia but clowns and mimes annoy the shit out of me, they better not be at a range when I have a full magazine.

[#25]

I don't know if it's a phobia or not but I have a fear of being helpless. I used to think it was claustrophobia, but I realized it's not so much enclosed spaces that bother me as the restriction of movement. I also can't handle being tied up (no handcuffs in the bedroom, thank you very much). I'm not very paranoid about something happening to the family as long as I'm there but I'm terrified of something bad happening and (most importantly) me not being able to get there. I guess I have an issue with control, I can't handle not being able to act.

I've flown a plane, skydived and done a bit of scuba - enjoyed the heck out of all of them. But, if you try to squeeze me into one of those MRI devices, I'll freak out and panic.

Claustrophobia sucks.

Geez, sgtar15, I know it's not my job to amuse you guys, but I crack *me* up:

Ive always had a hard time pissing next to another guy who is pissing in a public bathroom. So If I cant get it going I'll stand there acting like its not bothering me wondering if he notices no pissing noises. Drives me crazy

I'm like Sumo on this one. The thought of being trapped in a tight space with my arms caught at my side scares the living shit out of me. Being caught in a space but having my arms free doesn't cause me near the panic.

While flying doesn't bother me, being near the edge of a substantial drop-off does. I can't even watch aerial footage of flying over a city. You see that often at the start of movies. I guess they do it with a helicopter and a camera pointed straight down. I have to close my eyes or turn away. I literally feel pain in my feet and lower legs when I see that.

Otherwise, I am perfectly health....sort of.

uhhh huh.

Why is it the first thing you notice in a pic is their feet?

Why is it that the fact you have guns has ANY weight on this discussion?

Why i it that you can't simply say the following:
"I, TheBeekeeper1 mairried a nympho who wants me to lick her feet and she can outsoot me with my own guns. However, I am not gay, just a really friendly guy""

P.S. I love ya man! Honeybee Too!

I'm VERY easy-going about such things. Don't insult the Avila's or my wife (any amount of teasing/joking is fine) and I never get upset. Myself--I'm an easy/ripe target. Don't care 'bout dat.

And NOW you know why I am sometimes confused when a post of mine gets locked. It's almost always because I find something funny that is offensive to someone else. Luckily I am learning to look at things from others point of view.
