Snakes.
The house I grew up in had a lot of stone walls around it. Not cemented, but loose stones piled on top of each other. It looked nice but it meant lots and lots of snakes living in the rocks.
There was no way to leave the house without the high possibility of a snake being right there. I used to open the door and run.
Been scared to death of the fuckers ever since.
But they are sooooooo cute
:jester:
Roaches.

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
I've got a story for ya. One of my coworkers was cutting aluminum once. He was wearing safety goggles, so he had no risk of getting shit in his eyes. Or did he? As luck would have it, an aluminum shaving managed to pass through one of the ventilation holes on the side of the goggles, and lodged itself in his sclera (the white part of the eye). He flushed it out with water and thought he had gotten rid of it. The next day he experienced growing discomfort in his eye, but he thought it was just that the eye was sore. The day after that it got so bad that he had to go see a doctor.
Upon examination, the doctor discovered that he not only still had the shard lodged in his eye, but it had started to rust. They had to pry his eye open with forceps à la Clockwork Orange, and give him an injection in the eye before they could dislodge the rusty shard of metal.
:eek: That story made my skin crawl. Ughhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stage fright.... yup, just being on a stage, not acting, not singing, just getting up there even, or especially, if the theater is empty, kind of creepy.
I have a crazy irrational fear of.... frogs
Don't make fun of me!
But they are sooooooo cute
:jester:
Herps!!!
I know Nikki, Frogs creeped the fuck out of me when I was young; but when I took herpetology, all that went away. Hey, frogs do help keep the pesky flying critters away at least. Now on to snakes, I've personally handled Timber/Eastern Diamondbacks/Mojave/Western Diamondbacks/Pigmy/etc...and a host of other venomous snakes...they're a work of art they are.
Now Ichthyads...sharks will scare the hell out of you...until you go diving amongst them (especially bull and tigers)...
My irrational fear is waking up without time to get my morning coffee...or not waking up early enough to stay on schedule...

When I was a younger, I used to get "night terrors" which manifested into terrible nightmares. For example, a monster in the room, and I could not move because I was terrified with fear. I was able to scream out, but only when the monster looked away. Then after a bout of drinking, in my twenties, these terrors/nightmares would grow and manifest into my seeing myself killed; shot, or stabbed. Not good. Luckily, I've stopped drinking. And yes, I still get them when I'm stressed out. But they aren't as bad anymore.

You've just guaranteed I won't ever look at your site.
Me too! Whenever I get on or off of an eleavator I always do a quick little running hop through the door, because I'm paranoid about the elevator moving while I'm stepping in/out and cutting me in half.

I have a fear that my underwear will have a shit-streak in them when I get naked in front of a woman, and then she loses her appitite for sex.
I'm sure the practice of leaving a ghost light on an empty stage in a dark theater is very reassuring to you.
Here's a reassuring story that might help quell your fear of elevators.

Aluminum rusting? That's a first.
Fuck! I would've shit myself if that happened to me! :eek:
I wasn't there when it happened. Maybe it was just the alloy that contained metal that does rust. :dunno:
