Things that REALLY scare you!

Either simply enter your list with or without explanation:

1. Clowns. (they're just freaky to me)
2. Out of control government debt. (duh)

[bucktalk]

Opps left off one:
3. Snakes. (creepy, creepy, creepy)

Raw Ocean Fish at any Sushi Bar in The Midwest.

I honestly can't think of anything. Don't get me wrong, I don't pretend
to be a super man. I simply can't think of anything.

[Oh GAWD the Smell!]

Yeah. Me neither.

I mean...I'm not afraid of dying really. I'll avoid it if I can, if not...Well...The end!

I guess...Getting rolled over, feet first, by a steam roller maybe? That would suck pretty bad. Feet first in a woodchipper would probably be a bad way to go.

Death doesn't bother me a bit. We're here for a blip of time anyway. We begin dying the first day we're born. We're all doomed - each and every one of us. We're all on a highway that ends with a cliff. Some reach it sooner than others, but we all go over. Acceptance of mortality is the first step toward sanity.

Brain eating amoebas and the meningitis they can cause

Baby Sparkles. No doll that old should still be popping up in odd places. Fortunately she lives in WY now.






on edit: A close second would be the actor Stephen Merchant.

Oijia Boards ... my mom says they're evil and I believe her.

Black Widow Spiders
(but only the ones that sneak up on you while you are sleeping. other black widows just creep me out, the same way that scorpions and big centipedes do).

(also, not being able to resist explaining my position despite explicit directions from the OP not to do so)

I second that! My girlfriend messed with it for a while, until she spotted the pointer moving by itself. It scared her so bad that she quickly threw her Quija board away. Why play around with a possible gateway to the unknown spirit world? As you follow the pointer around on the board with your partner, the unknown is who the hell is controlling this pointer, because it sure as hell isn't me?

I spent the night with a friend one time, he started messing with one, and I just got up and said "done"! I left and walked on home lol

Bad Mexican food and signs that say "Next Restrooms 50 Miles"

Two movies:
1- The Exorcist (because, you know, not really sure that's not possible)
2- Idiocracy (because, you know, not really sure that's not possible)

If we're going to start talking movies, I have to vote for the original "Alien". It had me totally unnerved.

Scariest ever . . . Except, maybe, for the one in the Jon Carpenter original remake of "The Thing" with Kurt Russell.
(and the "ghosts" in "the original" "The Haunting" were pretty scary too. on account of you couldn't be sure that they were really there. =)

I think the set designer probably studied crabs and octopi.
And had a Giger counter.






Sorry to digress . . .
(for the list):
"'Bored' teens" in Duncan (et. al.)

[Just the facts]

People who wear tunics. I never trust them.

Political posts outside the Politics forum.

Which is why I deleted them.

Any thing that can fly and sting. I have hunted rattlesnakes (caught them live, brought them home), I live with/around brown recluse spiders, scorpions, and an occasional black widow, no problem, bees/wasps, big problem.

I'm 6' 5", 220lbs, and you will laugh at me if you see me around anything like that. I will flutter my arms and run screaming like a little girl if one of those get near me, lol.

I've always hated heights and more specifically, the feeling of falling.

So, I have a deep fear of most thrill rides and that lose-your-stomach sensation.
