As a kid the Star Destroyers in Star Wars, I would hide behind the sofa when they came on. Also spiders both then and now, not as much now but they still creep me out.

I've never really questioned it much until now, but why after all these years, and more, are black babies still dying in their hundreds every day? So that we can hog most of the world's resources.

I watched a horror movie about a murderous ventriloquist and his dummy when I was very young, and it was incredibly realistic. Brilliant directing...Anthony Hopkins, what more could you wish for?

Just thought of another. As a kid I was scared of 'The Draught'. I had no idea what it was, of course, but must have imagined it as some kind of lurking monster that crept around looking for open doors. This was on account of everyone around me telling me, "Shut that door or you'll let The Draught in!" Simpler times...

gina80 wrote:clowns  So I take it you guys scared of clowns love the move "It". Fantastic movie. Scared the pants off me, but not the clown factor. As a kid, I was scared of storms. My grandmother was petrified and her fear was transferred to me. These days, I love them. I love getting out and photographing them.

Sitting in a small boat atop a large body of water. I could never surf for this reason. Feel like a top water natural bait. Swimming in a natural lake or reservoir, or even wading out off the beach into an ocean or sea. I vaporlock when the waves crash at my knees. Swimming in a public swimming pool. Blech
The best thing you can do for your fellow, next to rousing his conscience, is - not to give him things to think about, but to wake things up that are in him... to make him think things for himself - George MacDonald

Swimming in a public swimming pool. Blech HMMMMMM i think i see a pattern here..... but i won't laugh because i was always afraid of everything except riding my bike.... i rode down hills with my hands up in the air... i rode fast... i rode far..... sometimes i wonder what happened to that girl... because now i am afraid of everything.... period....
i am really excited to have two "recommended reads". they are "did you know i love your cock?" and "just fuck me". great titles, huh?

Ballons. Odd I know but I have had a phobia of ballons my whole life. It has eased as I got older, I no longer scream until I am blue in the face if a ballon comes near me but they do still make me feel uncomfy when they are around me.
I sound like a mental case, I know.
