What is your fear?

[adamhovey1988]

Fish (no idea why), heights (but I paradoxically love mountains), women (I think that’s the most logical thing to be afraid of).

Cockroaches. I’m so scared by these creatures that just the sight of them from afar gives me crawls all over my body.

Walking over things I can see through.

Stuff like this is not for me.

Edited to add: it’s not a matter of height. That walkway could be six inches (15cm) above the ground and I still wouldn’t walk on it.

Haha if you’re afraid of snakes you wouldn’t survive in Australia. I grew up with a carpet python living in our ceiling, and brown snakes in the backyard every breeding season.

I have never heard anything more Australian, just casually have snakes living in your roof.

That’s looks scary for sure!

I can give you one better… when I was going to a rural school one day we had a kangaroo just bounce right through the middle of the school and then over the back fence. Lol we don’t ride them down the street but having one in the playground was pretty cool

Why women?

I’m afraid of train platforms. I get dizzy near the edge.

I really don’t want to be buried alive, drowned or burned.

When I swim in a deep pond or the ocean, I sometimes visualize the depth of water under me, and it gives me an irrational fear, as if the water at any moment might fail to support me and I would fall to the bottom.

Thank you Beryllos for my new recurring nightmare.

Good night. Sweet dreams.

Wow, you must be skinny I’m such a butterball that I can’t sink. I can’t even swim underwater because it takes too much effort to keep me submerged

I really don’t want to be buried alive, drowned or burned.

Those aren’t irrational fears, methinks.

I love those walks!!!

More for you, then

Fish out of water. I hate the way they flop around. Ever since I was a child, I’ve had nightmares involving fish out of water. Even looking at a dead fish in a grocery store makes me uncomfortable. Also, pelicans scare me. They’re basically devils with feathers.

What about handshakes like a dead fish ,and fish eyed looks

handshakes like a dead fish

Before the pandemic, this was the standard start-of-the-day workplace greeting in France. {shudder}

I believe the following video would scare the pants off the average person. Me? I’d probably need therapy afterwards!

 

[ioannes_pius]

Dead bodies. For some reason, whenever I’m around them, I get this feeling that the body will suddenly and unexpectedly come back to life and scare the living daylights out of me.

I would be concerned about how sturdy, or not, those panes of glass are. How much weight could they hold without falling through them. I’m with you. I wouldn’t walk on that, either.

Or, are they some heavy acrylic? Still, no go.
