Rosbjerg Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Inspired by some posts the Yathzee thread in CnC. I thought we could discuss irrational fears. Some people fear clowns or monkeys, dwarves or gardens. I've always had this irrational fear of people dressing in childish animal costumes, you know, the kind that Disney Land is filled with. I've always thought they looked extremely scary. It's gone so far that I'll cross the street just to avoid them talking to me. What's your irrational fear? Fortune favors the bald.
Gorgon Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 (edited) Gas leaks. I think it came from when I was living in an apartment with an old school pilot light. You know one of those, if it malfunctions everyone would die in their sleep deals. Edited November 3, 2008 by Gorgon Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
Epirote Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 (edited) ...<snip> ... What's your irrational fear? Death, both on a personal level, and as in death in the family. Edited November 3, 2008 by Epirote Elias Epirote http://epirotes.multiply.com
Krookie Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I'm afraid of wasting my life away on video game forums

Pope Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 As said in the Yahtzee thread, I've been afraid of clowns for most of my life thanks to seeing IT at age 6. I overcame my fear by seeing it again a few years ago and realizing how silly that film actually was. Other than that, not much really. Women used to scare me during most of my teenage years, but that problem has been fixed quite well now. Oh yeah, I'm still (and always will be) afraid of waking up at any hour that doesn't have 2 digits.
kirottu Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I fear swimming in sea or a lake without swim trunks. Some fish might try to snap my precious off. Also, those dogs who goes straight to sniffing peoples nether regions, because they might try to snap my precious off. And those really thin hollywood actresses with really white teethy smiles for similar reasons as above. This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.
Trenitay Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 social interaction of every kind. Hey now, my mother is huge and don't you forget it. The drunk can't even get off the couch to make herself a vodka drenched sandwich. Octopus suck.
Pope Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Vegetarians! I just discovered the super hot chick I met recently is a veggie. What a turnoff.
theslug Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I fear the large deep dark water thing and social interaction and not really scared but actually yeah kind of scary but not appropriate for the forums but girl part. Very scary, sometimes even nightmarish. There was a time when I questioned the ability for the schizoid to ever experience genuine happiness, at the very least for a prolonged segment of time. I am no closer to finding the answer, however, it has become apparent that contentment is certainly a realizable goal. I find these results to be adequate, if not pleasing. Unfortunately, connection is another subject entirely. When one has sufficiently examined the mind and their emotional constructs, connection can be easily imitated. More data must be gleaned and further collated before a sufficient judgment can be reached.
taks Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 anything around my neck. not totally irrational, however, as i did get choked by a jump-rope while playing on a swing when i was 6 or 7. it took me several years to get to where i could even wear a necklace, and it had to be extra long. ties are out except on very rare occasions and all of my shirts are loose fitting. taks comrade taks... just because.
Hurlshort Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Lettuce - It makes me gag just to think about it. I wake up yelling at giant spiders and trying to smash them quite often, but I'm not afraid of them in an awake state. I hate them in video games though.
taks Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 oh yeah... i forgot about food fears. i once watched my brother gurf some peaches, so they're on my don't go near list and once we had some sort of bug in our creamed corn. neither of the two have touched my lips since. taks comrade taks... just because.
taks Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 i wouldn't call that irrational, i'd call that typical. taks comrade taks... just because.
kirottu Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 I fear commitment. This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.

taks Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 that's not irrational, either, hehe. you could even extend it to "politicians" or "teamsters" and maintain a rational position. ahem. taks comrade taks... just because.
kjradio Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Unfiltered water. I have a filter on my water tap which I use to put water in my filtered pitcher. Good...Evil... I have the gun.
Gorth Posted November 3, 2008 Posted November 3, 2008 Proximity to other people. Put me in a room with more than few people in it and I automatically start searching for the exits. I hate public transportation too for the same reason. It's less bad when I know the people around me though, the better I know them the less oppressive it feels. “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt.

Gorth Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Bees, Wasps, and Hornets. Bzzz!... “He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would surely suffice.” - Albert Einstein
Dark_Raven Posted November 4, 2008 Posted November 4, 2008 Bugs of any kind. I hate them. I tolerate spiders because they eat those nasty bugs. I don't tolerate them if they happen to live where I live. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.
