I have an irrational fear of monkeys! I went to a carnival as a child once and this man had one on a leash. As he was playing violin, the monkey would walk around asking for coins. I was about four and I NEEDED to touch it! So I went for it and the darn thing attacked me! Okay, okay...it just scratched me...but still! I don't like monkeys and I hate the way they look. They're sooo creepy.
You know what this reminds me of?

In India, they fight with roosters, rams and bulls.
Also dog fights and horse fights. Horse fights are amusing, two male horses fight over a female horse and the people place their bets. It was scary to watch when you are a kid and I felt sorry for the animals. They have rights too.

Holes....

*skin crawls* :(
I actually understand this..

Spiders, only spiders that I don't see until the last second when they're in reaching distance. Freaks me out man. Sink holes....this fear is extreme. I honestly don't even like typing this one out because, just forget it, never mind. And public toilets. Like if I find myself in a moment of compromise and have to take a seat on one. I'm scared of the water. The toilet seat. What's lurking behind the cracks in the door. But I become acutely aware of my surroundings in those moments. You'd think I was taking care of my business in the heart of Tiger territory.

*True irrational fear I once had (and many might still...)*

...being forgotten...

"Don't forget me, okay?"




...living forever (in this world) - as in 'being unable to die'...


The saddest, loneliest, most painfully infuriating thing would be living an unending mortal life. It's the worst curse I think of to ever wish on somebody.

Elevators scare me....
I take steps to avoid them.

More seriously, Social interaction scares me, especially in a situation where nothing is planned out, and you are just supposed to show up and some how magically interact with people.
Once the conversation as started, I'm usually fine, but that initiation phase... I've up and left to avoid it, which is a bit weird.

Spiders, clowns/mimes, people in mascot costumes, women.

I'm seriously scared of all of them and avoid them whenever possible.
