Edoropolis Emporium

Everyone has that one thing that they are afraid of the most, wherever it's a physical fear for something like spiders or clowns, or an emotional fear like loneliness or sex (Yes, SEX!)

My worst fears:

I'm afraid of death. Not my own death, I accept the fact that I will die some day, but more specifically the death of people near me, like my parents or one of my brothers.

I'm claustrophobic... To a certain extend. Lock me inside a Humvee, The sleeping quarters of a Ship, or inside an Abrams even, I won't freak, I'll be cool, even. Throw me in a closet, however, and I freak out.

Blood Mainly my own. Don't want to go into details.

And I think that is it... Unless you can fear MRE's, in which case, I do.

Nothing.

i have a fear of wild boars, because they kill.

does a fear of GAY CLOWNS count as a fear?

Urk! Now I fear to that! Creepy!!

I fear people with phobias, its called Phobophobia. So for example if TGL had say... I don't know, Ablutophobia I would be scared of him.  Scared is not the right word when the symptoms are mild, as is my case, maybe strong aversion.

Also screw large groups of spiders. They creep me out in numbers.

I fear horses. They'll freaking eat your skin off!

Not my country, don't care.

Just one that really scares me... Get old...

I know  I can't avoide this but I really have issues about be an old man... I didn't want finish my child years!!!

What have we here? SPIDER COLONY?

Uh... *gulp*

I hate those kind of spiders. Long, dangly legs on their tiny bodies... like freakin' pins. This picture's sick in a cool/awesome/poop-yourself way.

It'll look good on a blog. ;)

Well, darn. I don't have any phobias _{(you can make fun of)}. :(

1. Squirrels, the way they look and the way they move just really scares me alot.

2. Dying, I want to live longer in order to accomplish my dreams.

1. Large Hadron Collidophobia
2. the end of the Mayan calendariphobia
3. scotomaphobia

Strangers and crowded places.  Not just stuff that bothers me, but real phobias which have involved treatment and medication.  And that's all I'll say about that.

I'm afraid of Willem Dafoe.   :'(

Spiders is the main one. Some I can handle, but most make me run away screaming like a little girl. I'm just glad I don't live in the areas of Australia where these buggers live! (http://www.spiderzrule.com/spider107/Picture%20197.jpg)

I used to have a fear of heights, but doing a 1000ft abseil helped me get over that a bit. I still don't like high places though.

And stupidity.

I fear heights, strangers, drowning, pitch-blackness, attractive women, sex, and anyone who wears a suit (seen the Matrix one too many times). Zombies, however, are my bestest friends!

Dude, give me a moment and I'll search GoogleEarth for you for directions to the closest bridge where you may fling yourself to the water below.

Enjoy.

No good, he might be able to swim.

Might I suggest Getting crushed by a truckload of Styrofoam shipping peanuts.

I doubt blind2d has the mental capacity to attempt the act of "swimming."

Problem solved.

~Burkey

OH BURNED!

Right on all accusations! Man, do you guys know me or what?

but still... its weight, and enough of that usually means crushy crushy

youre probably right, however it might just keep you, you know, stuck and unable to move. I mean snow wont crush you eaven in larger quantitys than a truckload, it will only keep you in place and suffocate you
dunno wich is worse... :-\

you'd probably suffocate before there were enough packing peanuts to crush you. they absorb moisture and heat like sponges, so you'd probably hyperventilate first...or at the very least build up enough anxiety to freak out. that could fall under claustrophobia. 

Do you people know how morbid you are? seriously, i'm a little freaked.

 :D

What do you mean "YOU PEOPLE?"  >:(  :huh:

looks like blind has thanatophobia. ;)

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v219/SpeedyX/Yoda.jpg)

This lil sucker scares the hell outta me.

~Burkey

What's that aster? And by "you people" I mean "everyone but me".

thanatophobia is fearing the concept of death, or the fear of death itself.
this is a phobias thread, right?

Taphephobia is the fear o' bein' burried alive... pretty sure I've got that one too...

My biggest phobia is wasps - the yobs of the insect world!

Man... I can't sleep anymore...

Ahahaha, now I gotta clean my monitor off. Thanks a bunch.

~Burkey

Primarily afraid of spiders, large bugs, and---since I live smack in the center of Tornado Alley---twisters.

heights [even about 14 ft up is scary] bioligy

and this

I fear the dogs, when I was child I was attacked by a dog

I fear immediately dangerous and extreme situations...and rejection. Yeah, I'm hesitant to a fault but I wasn't always like that...I wonder what did that to me.   :-\

I need to get on my motorcycle more...that should help with the first problem. The second...I'm a hopeless cause!    (>:()

I fear knives and stabbing weapons.

for some reason I always have nightmares about cats...or they are surrounding me or me, or another person holds this very small cat which suddenly will bleed the dead....other then that, before I was 16 I never had acrophobia, but once I got taller I don't want to try to look into something thats very deep....so I probably will never go into a airplane, let me just go on a boat which is 100X slower XD

I fear clowns.

Iam afraid of Clowns too. I also hate Mannequins. The ones when they havent been dressed to put in the store.

Marionettes! Clowns are about as scary to me as... Flip the Frog.

in my childhood I used to watch a show about a clown and acrobat, that clown wasn't that scary, it was always nice to watch.

Im scared of knifes and people holding them

Stairs and elevators and escalaters and Escalades and Being up high, Clowns, working on an engine that just ran or is about to run what's under my bed, Zombies.

ahh, mother with her children!  :3

KILL IT!!!! KILL IT WITH FIRE!!!

KILL IT WITH THIS! (http://www.themoviemind.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/chuck-norris-2.jpg)

Chuck Norris isn't a "THIS"

agree with  clowns....those guys are just...creepy.lets say i wasnt as happy in disneyland as the other children^^

OMG CLOWNS!!! And expecially IT of Stephen King...he uses to scary me still now brr
anyway my phobias are:

clowns o.o

illness / sickness

bees

dark

death

Pennywise is the sweetest little thing ever!!

whats wrong with bees? I take plenty photos of them very near, they never sting me  :D
also wasps never sting me....well 1 time then, but that was because 1 wasp suddenly got into my shirt while I was on the bicycle....it was stuck so that's why he used his sting...

If she's allergic then it could be frightening. As for me... well, I don't really have fears like arachnophobia or anything like that, but I am afraid of getting disemboweled. That makes me shiver thinking about it..  :(

I think Pennywise is a great character but he is very scary to me.
I'm afraid of bees (even if they are beautiful insects) because when I was a child one of them sting me in an eye and it scared me a lot and was very painful :(
why MrNoName do you think you have this fear?
I forgot to say that one thing that scaries me a lot are blood samples >_<

I don't have any back-story behind this fear, it just terrifies me to imagine myself with my own guts and organs hanging out of my stomach while I'm still alive and conscious... 

I don't even want to think about it myself.... :O

hornets are also very beautiful....and they eat wasps what makes them usefull.they are just so ....big.i guess i can live without wasps and hornets but rather hornets then wasps (wich is my recent situation).did you know that youre not allowed to kill hornets ...i mean they are no tigers or so....anyway

Well, think to myself with my organs which hanging out from my stomach or body is very scary and painful I don't wanna think about it.
Anyway, I use to not kill any animal, also the insects. If I see a bee, or a hornet or a wasp I run a way scared but I don't kill them if is possible

In the Netherlands, the onliest bug which is protected by the law is the Stag Beetle, guess it's different in Germany.
but I don't kill any bugs (and not even spiders)
my favorite bee/wasps which I've seen are the Europian Beewolf and the Europian Paperwasp.
let me show you some photo's I made of them...  ::)
(http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb146/silver_rasengan/Bijenwolf.jpg)
The Europian Beewolf, ony seen 1 time...

(http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb146/silver_rasengan/FranseVeldwespVrouwtje9.jpg)
The Europian Paperwasp (female). see them almost every day in the garden... always when I show up with my camera they seem to get affraid.....

(http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/bb146/silver_rasengan/DuitseWesp.jpg)
the German wasp....always stealing our food  :D

indeed they always steel food.
and yeah im not used to kill them as well since its nearly impossible to kill a hornet with a single hit of a regular fly-killer.
but spiders are rather usefull since we have no really dangerous spiders. im also not really afraid of wasps since their sting doesnt really hurt but i tend to lock them out when i see them soon enought,esspecialy the hornets. my mom always kills all the insects since she is afraid of spiders and my bro does it as well since he has serious panics when he see wasps.

my mom used to do the same but after I've been busy with them she tried to get a grip on herself  :D

Your photos are really beautiful, I think all the bees and wasps are all very beautiful to see ^^
I don't kill them, my father and my granfather are use to kill every insect (rats, snakes and one time my grandfather kills a mole :() I don't like these things so when I can I always try to protect them...is so unjust to kill them ...

Great photos, sjonnoh. I usually don't kill bugs/insects (unless they're ants). I don't understand killing spiders.

I don't know why exactly but I'm a bit afraid of ants and expecially when I see an anthill I have shivers...

you mean something like this?  :D

was pretty funny, they kept trying to walk on us but we tried to shake them off....later back in the car we noticed 1 had followed us but we didn't cared.... it was cleaning the whole car xD (there were pieces of cookies on the ground and it took it away)

That reminds me of when we left some chips in our car... oh boy, there were a ton of them. Also, my sister is sooo terrified of ants.. (sometimes it's fun to tease her about it, as bad as that may be  =] ).

let me guess, in secret you are feeding some ants in the car?  :D

How did you know!?  :O :P

OMG Sjonnoh your image is so DISGUSTING XD

In my garden is easy to find some antshills and I'm totally scared about them (I sincerely don't know why) so I keep away from them and I act if nothing is happened XD I don't wanna see them xD

I've only seen roaches in cities but never near my house.
and pururun nyan, you actually have anthills in your garden!? I've never seen a huge hill in someones gardn, only in woords...

I live in a village, so is easy here find many insects, roaches too, but I don't kill them...if I see one of them in my house I take a piece of paper, I catch the insect with it and then I thrust it out of the door XD
Anyway, yes sometimes I can find a little anthill in my garden ... but it's ok. Really near my house there is a place in open country, with a river (very polluted -.-) and there is easier to find anthills or snakes : /

snakes are very rare here, I think there's only one species here....

i guess we´re to northern for more then a few snakes sjonnoh even thought we have a few too.
but i got a small anthill in my garden too....my mom wanted to destroy it with our...uhhh (darn you english word i never need)...lawn...mower(?) but i didnt do it.

Or maybe it was a weed wacker! (http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTGO5GY5b4olO6PsBFuIFNiF0h6SVNy6T0QSlTrvqgKA0K5olI&t=1&usg=__V9M-vfuS9XNfMfs4UVZLcYX40Vw=)

Tear those ants a new one!

Where I live, there are too many ants and about 50 different species of snakes (but I don't see them since I live in the city). You can find ants pretty much everywhere though. Back on topic, I've been giving it more thought and another thing I'm rather afraid of is the future... as anti climatic as that may seem.

just searched for it and it seems like The Netherlands has 3 native species, the smooth snake (which is very rare here), common European viper (which is rare in the Netherlands) and the Grass snake, which is a bit common. All these snakes have never been seen a bit near where I live  :'(

oh and I know a much better way to get rid of ants! you should....bury them in the ground!


and about the future....I just don't want to know it what going to happen at....2012

But.. then they'll just dig themselves out, become angry, and attempt to take over our house! D: I don't think anything will happen 2012. I believe it's a load of bull.

What the hell is this Raz? XDDD

In the 2012? I think nothing will happen, I'm pretty sure about this...anyone is in fear?  ?:|

(http://www.kronline.at/guenter.hassler/rm.jpg)
mokay i meaned one of these.
its pretty much the same no?...one is good for small edges or corners,while the other one if for big surfaces......

No, you're right, that's a lawn mower Vonhorz. And yes, the weed wacker is good for getting those hard to reach places in the yard!

hmm funny. a vocab i learned by watching spc: lawn mower(speedy talking about pollys voice) ::)

aaaaaaaaand...what that's means? ^^'

What? Lawn mower? It's the object in the picture that vonhorz posted a couple posts up. If you're talking about Speedy talking about Polly's voice, then he said that her voice sounded like a lawn mower (as in, it was loud and obnoxious).

Oh thank you ^^ and do you remember whichi episode was?

uhhh singing samurai sensation....spc #6 when i remember right...

Yes, that's right. Speedy actually makes 2 analogies. The second one was the parrot in the lawn mower comment. The first one was her voice sounding like 'Kitty Litter in a trash compacter' which is a none too subtle way of saying 'crap'... >:[

Ok thank you now is all clear ;)

I got a new phobia now.

The Marine CFT.

~Burke

I forgot to write a important phobia in my life...(don't laugh)

ZOMBIES!  >:[

heh.....for some reason my oldest sister keeps saying she has a phobia about.....African zombies (beats me where she got that one from)

the exorcist 2?

I have this phobia since I was young. I watched accidentally a movie (The night of the living dead) with my older sister and I was very very scared, I couldn't sleep well at night. Then, when I become older my phobia wasn't like first, but already now for me wacth movies with zombies is difficult, they alway scary me >_<

you should watch resident evil....xD

oh and just asked my older sis and she just had it as her own nightmare, she never saw it as movie but suddenly had a nightmare about African zombies.....and I was taken with them.....

Have you seen Shaun of the Dead? That movie is bloody brilliant. As for African zombies.. I was thinking of Resident Evil 5 when you said that, even though they technically aren't zombies. I'm not scared of zombies anymore unlike how I was say.. 2 years ago (I was horrified of them then). This is mostly because I've indulged myself into it's 'culture' a bit via watching and playing too much of it's media.  ::)

Also, this article has some interesting and valid points why a zombie outbreak wouldn't work if that may help your phobia.

 http://www.cracked.com/article_18683_7-scientific-reasons-zombie-outbreak-would-fail-quickly.html

Granted, it's all in English, just a heads up.

(And yes, I'm a zombie nut, as if that doesn't make me weird enough  :P).

I also watched Resident Evil...the first and the second are really scary but the others have too much actions, I don't like them very much, and also they don't act like zombies anymore, they RUN o.O
haha thank you for have post it that's quiet funny XD  but I think that for me watch movies with zombies is still difficult (oh well is ALWAYS difficult for me watch horror movies even if I like them very much...)

running zombies.....xD

and I think resident evil 4 the game would be pretty scary.
as for Resident Evil 5....although you got Africans in it which are half dead, I can't tell the game has that scary sphere like Resident Evil 4 used to have. the only part which keeps a bit scary is when a guy which a chainsaw comes after you X3

Yeah, RE5 is too... bright. You know what I mean? I've played RE4 so many times now, I hardly have a freak out moment anymore. As for running zombies... 28 Days Later and Left 4 Dead have them. Although, those zombies are more like... infected people rather than the walking dead.

I didn't watch the last movie of Resident Evil (I think is in the cinemas in these days) I think I should do it.
Anyway, I used to watch my sister when I was young play the first games of Resident Evil...I couldn't watch her and now I'm sure I won't ever play them XD

well how about the ones at zombie land?....check the seat belt....double tap....#1stamina

oh and RE 4 had some nasty bosses but the regular zombies....nahhh

The zombie is an African Voodoo concept.

It's a dead corpse re-animated for the will of its summoner.

I think Capcom said something about having zombies in Resident Evil: Revelations for the 3DS. Of course, I could be wrong, but that's what I read.

You have hit it on the nail :P
