Spiders and insects in general.

I've never heard of one for shorts/shortsleeves...That's kinda interesting!

 I used to be pretty OK with it (the dark), then my friend got me to watch Sunshine, and I've been really jumpy about my house/bedroom being dark at night since. The family room and the sunroom especially. I get really really skittish and paranoid around them. Living alone, it might be a little justified (though it's only that area of the house). The bedroom part is amusing because I can only fall asleep in total darkness. So I end up locking doors inside my house, which probably isn't a very normal or rational thing to feel the need to do.

I hate zombie and horror film too, but I still love wolking in streets at night. It's like a magical atmosphere. Especially in old medieval district.
I don't really hate insect but I prefer them more when they're under my shoe. But a day I went to a shop wich sold tarentula or mygale. The seller put one of them on my hand, it was amazing !!

I also can't bear wearing shorts. Don't ask me why...

I'm a little better with zombies than I used to be (Thank you Left 4 Dead), but they still scare the piss outta me. I still won't buy Resident Evil.

I look silly as hell in shorts... I really should hate wearing them.

*hides from zombie*
how about we don't be in zombie mode and say we didn't

zombies are different in D&D I can handle them because tehy are just minis and words on paper.

I'm... terrified of water, well, not water, but what's in the water... I can't stand going in oceans past my stomach.  When i was like, 8, my parents took me to some tropical place, and we went snorkeling with a tour thing, and the guide warned us not to provoke the fish, because they are trigger fish and can cut open your stomach with the dagger like projections from their tails, yum.

So what does my dad do? Picks up a bunch of pebbles from the shore and takes it out with him, then when there are fish he puts the whole handful underneath me and swam away.  Commence feeding frenzy, a whole bunch of them swam right under me, and you can see the sharp parts of their tails going, they shine in the sun, really pretty, really freaky.

Same vacation, my dad decided to take me body surfing (and remember I was 8) where you basically catch a wave and ride it like on a surfboard, but with your body for steering and stuff.  That was awesome, and I loved it, except one time there was a huuuge undercurrent which swept me back and I got caught in the undertow, stuck underwater and I hit my head on a rock.  Fun times.

SAME vacation, we go to a different tour thing and there are sting rays in the water, my dad puts me IN THE WATER with the wild sting rays.  Basically, the tour guide said, 'don't take your feet off the sand' because if you step on a stingray, they will kill you, but I was eight, and puny, the slightest wave picked me up, and then I refused to put my feet down after that... fuuun times i tell you, fun times.

Yeah, that was a lot of text but I decided to get the description out of the way.

I feel like you should've kicked your dad in the balls at some point.

I think I haven't been in a natural body of water since I got caught in the riptide r-so years ago.

Yes, I agree with the kicking of the father, but I was a puny person back then and am still a puny person and I hate genetics for that.  Stupid asian short gene.

Water is the craziest thing, it seems all calm and gentle, but it can kill you so easily... currents kill me, litterally

...wel...im afraid of the dark (what can be hiding in it), same goes for water, and i really hate insects and spiders and slugs...

hehe i sometimes manage to talk myself into fear of the dark ..........im okay most of the time though ..... i think i might be able to fear anything when i think to mutch about it ..... =/

I still say clouds

Now uh... these clouds you're afraid of, are they your normal clouds? Or are we talking dark clouds? Foreboding clouds? All clouds?

To me this seems perfectly rational. I think you may want to look into hiring a bodyguard, those clouds are dangerous folk.

wow how can you be forced to wear anything ??? =S seems kinda bad.

@Doc & Mimic: clouds arent evil they protect us from the deadly rays from the sun ...... the sun is .... well not evil cuz it protects us from the freezing darkness of the universe ...... but i missed part of the mano diau concert cuz i had to go into the shade or i would have fainted ....... so now i got myself a hat to prevent that........... so hats and clouds Rock!!!!!! ^^

wow thats a pretty big hailstone i guess that could kill ya....... =S
well and i knew the other stuff about clouds ......... i never thought about how mutch they weight though.............. but i guess that mutch water must be pretty heavy.

what the hailstone killing ppl or the weight of a cloud ??

i dont think clouds are very dagerous ..... if you dont go outside in a hailstorm ...... though clouds also generate a lot of static electricity so there is also the lightning that could hit you. but anyway i like clouds. =)

i sometimes like rain(when im listening to good music or there is a thunderstorm or when im inside) ..... and i really like thunderstorms thunderclouds are really beatiful specially when there is lightning =)

hehe it rains a lot here to so its kinda usefull not to mind the rain.... and 25-35 metres is really close. not shure if i would like that =/

I have a fear of holes xD Ironic for a girl that likes girls, huh?

But no, I don't know if it's actually a fear, it's just this extremely uncomfortable creeped-out feeling that I get if I see certain types of holes. Like, the air bubbles along the inside of a full mayonnaise jar, or Swiss cheese. It makes my teeth ache just thinking about it.

I'm also pretty scared of stairs which is weird because I've never really fallen down them. I just slid down them in a Rubbermaid tub once and I wasn't even hurt. I can't stand at the top of the stairs unless I have something to hold on to, and I absolutely CANNOT start going down before I grab the railing or the wall. Once I make the first few steps I'm usually fine without the railing. I'm also extremely uncomfortable when carrying things up, or standing on the steps.(The pantry in my house lines the basement steps.)

Haha, my sister is like that. Once, she had her window open at night and a moth got in because my cat had damaged the screen. It was 11PM and she screamed and woke me up to tell me she was scared to go into her room.

I'm usually okay with flying insects, as long as they stay out of my hair and away from my ears. When I was in middle school, I was in the library taking a state test and all of a sudden this bug dropped from the ceiling and into my hair. It took me a while to get it out, cos it was crawling under the strands (I had my hair in a ponytail.) It was huge! Like, grasshopper size. I pride myself on only freaking out a little; no one even noticed that I flailed my arms around my head for a minute.

When I was a kid, I used to have to sit on every step going up or down because I was afraid of falling.
