Maybe not that unusual, but I’d rather be horsewhipped than step on a plane.

Windows at night. I blame Amityville Horror. When I go to open or close a window, or blinds/curtains at night I am always petrified there will be someone-or some THING looking back in at me, I do apologize for the window incident.

When I was younger, I would get beat up (mostly in the summer, my parents didn't know). I'm kind of starting to get okay with summertime, again.

Clusters of tiny holes. Honey combs make me anxious. I was just about to mention this. I hate holes, especially tiny clusters found in nature. Especially gross if it’s on a limiting organism, like flesh. Either naturally there or from a bite.

Praying mantises and katydids. Both of them freak me out, especially the praying mantises.

Not sure how unusual this is, but as a kid, staring up at the sky made me a bit uneasy. I felt like if I stared too long i'd get sucked up into the sky and dropped. These days, one of my favorite ways to relax is to stare up at the sky and let my mind wander. So I've gotten over that little fear, I guess.

Frogs. I'm absolutely terrified of them and will run like hell if I see one remotely near me. I can't even look at a picture or video of them without getting freaked out. I have no good reason why I'm so scared of them, but I absolutely am. Snakes, rats, spiders, etc. don't bother me at all. Frogs? f***ing little nightmares. It didn't help that I grew up with a pond behind my house that was full of bullfrogs. They should all be destroyed.

The elderly, particularly those with dementia, on account of a lady in her late-80s at the nursing home I worked at spending several weeks attempting to seduce 15 year-old me.

For the longest time I feared the down escalator. Not the up one, only the down one, because you can fall down the down one.

Listen...not a year goes by, not a year, that I don’t hear about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid which could have easily been avoided had some parent – I don’t care which one – but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator.

I have a big fear(or agony) of having knifes pointed at me or my direction.

I also have a fear of telepaths. I’m being serious. I have this anxiety that there could be someone out there who can read what I’m thinking at any given moment, or who can tell just by looking at me what is on my mind.

Cotton Balls terrify me. Just seeing a bag of them makes my spine shiver. Touching them is hell. Feels like a ball of needles. I got kicked out of a 3rd grade art class because I cried when we had to make a cottonball-glued-to-construction-paper art project. And ever since George Carlin I can’t hear that word the same way again. “When my beers nuts turn to cotton balls, that’s when I’ll come back to you.”

Blank television screens.
I always think I’m going to turn away for just one second, and when I look back the TV will suddenly be on with some kind of screwed up image on screen.

You know those little stickers that markets put on fruit? Those scare the hell out of me. I'm always afraid I'm gonna accidentally swallow one and get poisoned from either the glue or ink on it. Whenever I eat an apple, I don't just peal them off, I straight up cut off a small section of the apples skin that the sticker is on.

I didn't know I felt this way until I nearly stepped on one on my way home from work this year, but Hedgehogs are pretty creepy up close.
