NaperVic Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I think Steve mentioned in a blog (not the one about being a Pr*ck in a previous life ) but about the evil puff of air glaucoma test that eye doctor perform. To this day, I still jump or blink my eyes early whenever I have to take that test. Rationally speaking, I know it won't hurt, so why do I still jump? Then I started thinking what are my other irrational fears? Here they are: 1) Eye/Puff of air test 2) Opening up a tube of refrigerator dough like Pillsbury Cinnamon Rolls or Biscuits - I always hold my breath or squint my eyes because I'm afraid that stuff will come flying out or explode all over the place 3) Popping a balloon - Still can't do it What are yours? ok, I'm a big sissy, so sue me

I can never pop a balloon either. The one time I actually did, though, was an accident and I freaked out thinking it would blow up in my face! Also (and I know how silly this must sound), I sometimes worry that my parents or people around me can hear my thoughts. So if I have a crush on someone and fantasize about them I get paranoid and wonder if they're seeing me see them in my head.
W_L Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I actually do suffer from Glaucoma, so I am not afraid of that. 1. I am afraid of darkness and silence together. I am fine with either separately, but if they occur together like walking alone at night; I am really afraid. It's just eerie and you are expecting something from nothing. 2. This is a recurring dream of mine and a deep fear; I am afraid to have gained everything I could ever desire, but lose everything I ever loved. I blame this on a high school course, where we watched Citizen Kane and talked about the meanings behind it. Irrational right or prophetic?
Mark Arbour Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Snakes. I hate snakes. But I like penises, so go figure.
Sir Galahad Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 I can't touch fish especially when it still has it's head on! Even fillets are a struggle, I tend to use a slice & maneuver them that way if I have to cook them. Strangely enough I can eat tuna, go figure! Also, any dead mice or birds left my cats, I cannot pick them up, totally grosses me out. Have to get the pooper scooper to move them.
sat8997 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 Totally laughing about the tube of dough and not the least apologetic. Rubber bands. Specifically when people stretch them in a way that resembles shooting them. Really freaks me out.

One of my hidden talents: I'm practically a marksman with a rubber band. :2hands:

After Death...i have scared myself into a pit of pondering about what will happen to me after i die (i.e. heaven or hell, reincarnation or am i just a lost soul floating into the pits of space) I wouldn't have said heights was irrational. But after death is weird man!
Arpeggio Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I can only think of three at the time. lol 1. Identical twins 2. Other people reading my thoughts. 3. Getting stuck and unable to move what-so-ever.
NaperVic Posted March 25, 2009 Author Posted March 25, 2009 Snakes. I hate snakes. Fear of snakes doesn't seem irrational...like a big boa curling around your body and squeezing the life out of it.
Benji Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Being in an enclosed space, which is funny caves don't bother me. Lately I notice that I get uncomfortable with two many people in a room, I need to get space.
Site Moderator TalonRider Posted March 25, 2009 Site Moderator Posted March 25, 2009 For me, it's height. We have a piece of equipment we use at work that goes up maybe 30 ft. It tends to wobble some when I get up that high. Put me on 200, 300, or 400 ft. coaster and there's no problem at all.
Jeebus Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Umm, Mine is canned dog food, because of the smell and the horse testies that I've seen. YUCK!!! and also Bird poo. Participially Seagull poo. that makes me barf like a trooper. I'm a demi-sissy I think.

Boy In Doubt Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 See, I always thought of identical twins as being erotic. Unless they're identical twin psycho killers or something...
Arpeggio Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I hate being unable to tell them apart. I don't know why it scares me so much,.
Boy In Doubt Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 I hate being unable to tell them apart. I don't know why it scares me so much,. You should offer one of them a free makeover (And then a free make out session with the other!)
Benji Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Tell ya what kiss one and look for the reaction of the other, I'm sure you will be able to tell them apart after that!! Hehehe!
Boy In Doubt Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Unless they have the same reaction! Talk about creepy...
AFriendlyFace Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Irrational fears huh? Hmmm I honestly can't think of any off hand. I'm hesitant around snakes and spiders, but not debilitatingly so and I don't think it's all that irrational since they might be poisonous. I used to have a phobia of blades, and cheese graters, but I'm mostly over it now. I'm perhaps a mild germaphobe, but not too bad. I actually do suffer from Glaucoma, so I am not afraid of that. sorry to hear that
SRevol Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 I hate being unable to tell them apart. I don't know why it scares me so much,. hahahaha that would be creepy I
Benji Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Oddly enough I no longer have a fear of death, I went thru to much shit, prolonged pain is something I wouldn't want to feel before death, but it would only be excruciating pain that I would fear now.
BlueBird Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 hmm..irrational fears It's weird, but I fear of sneezing when I'm driving, since we close our eyes and whatnot and also falling backwards down the stairs
