"Tosses a spider on jan"
Man I'm right there with ya on the spider thing! Those little fuckers freak me the fuck out! Have no idea why. Though I have found that the bigger they are the worse the fear is for me! Saw, I think it was Jeff Corwin pokin around a burrow of a goliath spider, and this thing lunged out of the hole...I jumped straight up and over the back of the couch screaming like a little bitch! God damn spider is like a foot across with fangs that are over an inch long! It eats birds for fuck sake...IT EATS BIRDS!!! :eek: that's just not right!
LOL. I feel you, man, Really scary shit!
If i'm not mistaken, this thread is about phobia or irrational and illogical fears.
worrying about losing job or family or fear of speeding dosn't count as phobia IMO
from what i gathered arachnophobia and acrophobia are the most common phobias everywhere.
I've both actually, though i'm really comfortable with snakes (non-poisonous ones of course)
I'm also somehow afraid of water and the sound of water pumps, big ones not the small ones used for homes. it makes me imagine a deep dark creepy well.
perhaps i've drowned in my previous life
