JR2000Z Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Well here I am. 1:30AM. Im tired but awake. Why? Im facing my fear. Every night that I cant sleep, I get scared that I wont get any sleep for that night and that Im missing out on something like everyone else. I figure if Im going to to sleep well for future nights, I must face my fear. Besides, if I did sleep, I would wake up at 3:00 to catch a plane. Yes, this night is a good time for me to face my fear because Im leaving for Canada to stay for over a week. I have a ton of other fears. Like the all-so-common fear of hights and stage fright. But of course most people are born with it. What your fear? (IM TIRED. IF ANYBODY IS OUT THERE, A FRIENDLY CONVERSATION WOULD BE NICE.)
JR2000Z Posted August 16, 2001 Author Posted August 16, 2001 C'mon. I don't have all night! Dont let me hangin now! I know you losers are out there somewere! Dont make me call your mothers!

Taarkin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Minor things I am afraid of: Wasps Camel Spiders Major things I am afraid of: Social interaction
Admiral Zaarin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 I too have a phobia of wasps, though it's definitely not minor. I'm jumpy around most insects/arachnids in fact.
Taarkin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 I'm also afraid of other large flying insects, but only because I hear one and think "Oh #%&* a wasp!" If you do not know what a Camel Spider is, look for the 11-page thread in the Somethingawful forums. It is basicly an 8 inch long spider that runs 30mph and has painkillers in its salivia so it can eat things while the victims are asleep. Some marines in Desert Storm got their faces eaten off. Roughly life-size [This message has been edited by Taarkin (edited August 16, 2001).]
Admiral Zaarin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Unfortunately I seem to be living in the most insect-infested part of this city. I regularly get assorted moths, beetles, slaters, spiders, you name it, somehow gaining access, even though I barely ever leave windows and doors open.

Yeeesh. Thankfully we don't get anything anywhere near that large here, the biggest one I've ever seen is probably about 5 inches long, and none are poisinous. They still creep me out though.

MadPilot Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 I'm not too bothered about bugs, but then I am quite handy with a Fly-Swatter! I'm not too keen on roller coasters but, for some reason, I'm looking forward to white-water rafting on the weekend.
Admiral Zaarin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 I've only ever been on one roller coaster (a small one, none of your 100-mile-an-hour six-million-loop-the-loops madness), and I have to admit it scared the living daylights out of me.....

Taarkin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 You pansies, roller coasters are cool(except wooden ones because they BREAK MY NECK)
MadPilot Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Has anyone been on "Star Tours" at Disney, CA? That was excellent. I went on twice. My sister got annoyed because I kept humming to the music.
Admiral Zaarin Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Yeah, I've been on it. (Read: about 15 times). Barely any relation to SW, but a hella fun ride all the same.
Guest Zoom Rabbit Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 When I was a little boy, I was afraid of flowers. Absolutely true.
Guest Zoom Rabbit Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Nowadays I just harbor normal types of fear: monkeys, sock puppets, robots in the laundry room...
Radivil Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 I fear getting my arm ripped off by a washing machine. For real.
Andromeda Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 that spider looks more like a scorpion than a spider... i'm afraid of water...kind of...and i'm a lil bit claustrophobic, but that's about it
Darth Sceltor Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Roller coasters are the best. I fear heights to some extent, but I'm fine with water. Maybe a bit claustrophobic. Oh, and I have to close all my shades at night because I don't want to see some psycho murderer guy peeking in or something to that nature. And while I was watching Jurassic Park III yesterday, i pictured myself as one of the characters during the movie and found out that I would be deathly afraid of dinosaurs were they real.
edlib Posted August 16, 2001 Posted August 16, 2001 Originally posted by Andromeda: that spider looks more like a scorpion than a spider... They're all arachnids. Ick. Too many legs. Too many eyes. Big pincers. No thanks. That goes for lobsters too. Yuck.
