What is your highest ranking silly fear.. now I am not talking about harm to a loved one, or dieing or things of that nature.

I am talking in the lines of spiders, snakes, heights, the opposite sex, heights and what not.

Mine.. not much strikes fear into me.. but I can't stand a bat flying around.. a silly little bat.

Who's idea was it to make a flying rodent. 😉

Not a huge fear, but I fucking HATE spiders. I see one, it needs to die. I don't want them to touch me, however if there's one near me I'm not going to freak... Just get a tissue and kill the bastard.

I guess bats too, but really any flying creature coming at my head will make me duck, the increased disease risk is an added benefit.

Does any of this really count as a fear?

I'm irrationally afraid of heights. I can jump out of an airplane, but put me on top of an 8-foot shipping container and I'll start trembling and have a hard time getting off. I take minutes to creep from a roof onto a ladder. It's bad.

I'm also terrified of incarceration. If I were ever sentenced to prison, I would kill myself.

Bees. God damn I hate 'em.

Been stung five times in my life. I don't recall it hurting overwhelmingly but still, they completely freak me out.

Weird. I always thought Finland was too cold for bees and the Finns pay Swedes to manually pollinate flowers.

I'm with Porforis. If I see a spider, I turn into the Incredible Hulk and kill it violently.

I'm also with NSD. I've had instances of when I was rockclimbing when I went into a panic because I made the mistake of looking down. Wow, just thinking about the incident in '91 made my hands sweaty.

ME TOO!!!!
I am TERRIFIED of them! Also wasps.
I TRY not to let them....."BUG" me (sorry!) But when i see one, i scream like a little girl and RUN!
I got stung by a wasp a few weeks ago, and i STILL shudder when i think about it.
It's funny....cause i have shouted down a HUGE black bear when i was out in the woods. But let a bee fly around me, and i will do ANYTHING to get away from it.

Cheesey - They got these red wasps in Texas. I got stung by one once and it literally felt like I had a nail in me. My foot swelled up so much that I couldn't wear a shoe. It took a day to subside.

If I saw another one of them, I'd jet.

Bee stings aren't that bad though. I've been stung and it was like "ouch" but went back to what I was doing.

So I guess it depends on how your body reacts to it. I've met more than one person before who could die from a bee sting and had to carry either cortizone or benidril just in case (forgot which).

I have been stung in the back of the neck, and the leg. Bee stings are bad, because they KEEP hurting. The wasp hurt for a couple days, then stopped.
I KNOW it's just a tiny bug......something must have happened to me when i was a little kid to make me fear them that much. My Mom always had a flower garden, and she would work in it, with bees flying all around her. She NEVER acted scared. But me? I just can't STOP it. I wish i COULD get over the fear.

My fear is people are watching me and observing me like a lab experiment and talking about me behind my back.
