Your Top 3 Phobias

[croak]

List of phobias - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fear of heights: a raven that is afraid of heights? It is somewhat complicated, but so long as my wings are working, I am fine. Otherwise, I go insane.

Fear of big bugs: anything around the size of a cockroach and larger scares me. Tiny spiders somewhat scare me, but not so much. If I see, say, a giant spider, I try to put it out of mind and hope it vanishes. So far, it has worked. Top of my list are house centipedes, followed by cockroaches and large spiders. Have you seen a house centipede? If you haven't, consider yourself lucky.

Social phobia: Somewhat self-explanatory.

C) All of the above

And not just afraid. Terrified. Panic attack, running to the other side of the street, crying in petshops terrified.

I hope I don't scare you. You seem like a nice person.

My top 3 phobias are spiders crawling on the ceiling above my head and thinking it's coming down on it's web to get me, people dying, and losing in games like basketball >.<

I used to play with small spiders when I was a kid. I enjoy it. But I'm scared of the big ones. And I hate basketball, because of attitude problems of some of my team mates

UGH! I hate ALL spiders and I should be able to play basketball because I'm so tall and I know how to play the game well

I can pretty much recall when I was 8, I caught a small spider on our garden and placed in in a match box. Then, I use it to scare girls whenever they want to play with me. I'm a bad boy back then:angel2:

I suppose my top fears could be all boiled down to being in a very large expanse of something (water, air, space), without having anything to hold on to or stand on.
Water not so much because I can swim.
Air and space a very much a like. I'm not afraid of falling or heights...just being very small in a very, very, very (in space, infinite) big amount of space.
I don't really know what that's called, or if they have a name for it, but there it is.

Have you seen a house centipede? If you haven't, consider yourself lucky.

Oh my goodness gracious... those things are SO NASTY. :cover: Centipedes are just icky all around... House centipede or not... You know what other bug seriously makes me cry? An earwig... OH MY... If you have no idea what it is, look that one up. I used to have a TON in my bedroom window when I was younger. My room was in the basement and my windows were right at ground level. :areyoucra

I know what those are, but I've never seen one. There used to be cockroaches all the time in the garage where I used to live. And there was this centipede when I was living somewhere else: one night crawling on the wall and into a closet, one time crawling beside my bed, one time on the wall beside the bathroom door, another on the bathtub I think.... I think I took a picture of it. I don't want to see one ever again. >.>

You don't want to

I don't want to see one ever again. >.>

I completely understand. I don't want to see an earwig ever again... Thankfully I haven't seen any in Virginia... We do tend to get cockroaches... everywhere. I saw two of them running around outside my work in the parking lot... lol I have never seen that before until recently.

I um.. think earwigs.. and ants.. and woodlice.. are cute.

I'm weird, though.

So long as you don't say the same about house centipedes, we're cool.

Earwigs are one of my favourite insects
They are very interesting creatures, they are one of the few insects where the mothers care for the young, and favour certain offspring over others. Some are flightless but the structure of the wings of the others is fascinating, the hind wing having as many as 40 folds which the earwig has to delicately unfold with it's pincers, but which are flicked back beneath the tegmina like a switchblade. I'll stop now, soz.

I caught one of those in my apartment last night. It started freaking out after I captured it, and the sound it made running around was really, really creepy.
