Weeeeell, Midge's community comic about fears has stuffs.
But, I do have a fear of looking at dangerous sharks of any sea creature with a big open mouth.
It's the fact that if I'm eaten by them I would be trapped, and if I don't die of the bites, and loss of blood, the lack of oxygen and stomach acid would most likely kill me.
It's quite irrational as I'm afraid of sharks that don't even eat humans, and never would.
And whenever I look at a picture of a shark, mouth open or not, I start having an asthma attack.

Anyone Have an Irrational Fear?
I had a friend in high school who was completely freaked out/disgusted by hairs. Not just hairs in food – any hairs that were not directly attached to a head. This included her own hair! I once saw her run her hand through her hair and then saw a loose hair on her hand and completely freaked out.
Like the guy who started this subject. I have a serious phobia of cockroaches. One of the apartments I used to live in as a kid was infested with the damn things. It was so bad, we had roaches that would literally jump from the ceiling and into your drink (NOT lying). Thankfully, we left that place soon after. But my skin still crawls every time I see a cockroach.
I have a fear of guys with the last name of Bill. Every payday I have to go see them and give them some of my earnings. If I don't, Mister Bill will take things from me. What I fear most of all is when they decide to come for a visit to make me pay them…
And soon I have to worry about Mister Tax Bill… O_O
My brother is genuinely terrified of zombie invasion, he actually has blueprints and plans and maps covering one of his bedroom walls and judges nearly everything by how effective in a zombie crisis it would be.Can I LOL?
That reminds me, my sister is terrified of zombies and the idea of a zombie invasion as well. She uh, doesn't have blueprints or anything and she actually loves to watch zombie movies all the time…but if you walk at her like a zombie, she will go into panic mode. Hell walking in an abnormal, monstrous way torwards her, no matter how obvious it is that you are joking around, will send her into panic mode. XD
What would be a name for "strange walk" phobia?
i'll be the third person in this thread with an intense fear of cockroaches. i've seen a lot of them in my house throughout the years… in my closet, on my chair, in the sink, the bathtub, kitchen floor… i also drown them in cockroach kill spray. and if i have to handle them to dispose them or something, i actually start to cry. that would be my personal hell - alone in a small grubby room with thousands of cockroaches…
Spiders take my cake. They're fast, they're eight-legged, and they look extremely repulsive. Just an image inside my head gives me the chills. I used to have a problem with them back at Canada but I haven't seen any since I moved into America. Now we got cockroach problems.
Quite frankly, I'm not as afraid of them and can go as far as touching their antennae. Regardless, I still get freaked out by both of them. One time when I was sleeping I felt something crawling on my face and as I twitched it jumped and quickly scuttled away… it was so dark that I couldn't see, but it sounded like a cockroach. It took me around 6 minutes go back to sleep that night…
Lastly I'm afriad of loud noises rapidly getting closer where I can't determine where it's coming from.
Haha, I've got this one. It's not really a fear though, more like a visceral disgust. Any organic-looking clusters of holes (the smaller they are the worse it is)Oh dear lord, I have that too.
Cockroaches are cute as kittens compared to what we have in our basement (and sometimes our shower o.0).

I thought my brother having a millipede as a pet was disgusting enough…
We freaked out when we first saw one. Still gives me the willies, but I'm a biologist. I looked it up and found out they eat spiders, silverfish, and termites, so we don't kill them.

My last apartment had cave crickets. (They are enormous. And I have no idea what they were doing in the middle of the city.)

AHHH AHHH AHHH!!
In your shower? ;_;
I'm terrible with cockroaches. To think that as a kid I would decapitate them and watch them squirm around headless. I was brave as a child. O__O
I'm not sure why everyone is afraid of zombies now….is this a new thing? Has there been a scientific breakthrough about zombies that I'm not aware of?
…Should I be afraid? O__O
We don't get anything like that here in Japan, it's all just horse flies, botflies and some rather large spiders.We freaked out when we first saw one. Still gives me the willies, but I'm a biologist.

'Course there's the occasional cockroach but they aren't too common… depends on how much you clean your house.
funny, with all the fears posted in this thread…some may want to do a page for a certain community project. *cough*You'd think so, but I have an irrational fear of community projects. ;)
And public speaking. I had to speak at my graduation, and I damn near hyperventilated. I also had to give a speech as best man at my buddy's wedding, and I had to get good and hammered before I could do it. Made for a weird speech. One of my worst nightmares is just to have a huge crowd of people turn and look at me. Just typing that is giving me chills.
I'm not alone, though. Apparently fear of public speaking is more common than even fear of death.

Happens to nearly everyone at least once:P
…Am I the only one who is afraid of robots?
It all started when I was a kid, when I was watching Superman III, and the supercomputer turned that woman into a robot….scared the crap out of me as a kid; watching it now kind of gives me the willies….
…Something about the whole idea that computers can be so intelligent that they can have their own mind and be dangerous, unstoppable killing machines. Like cylons and stuff.
The "robots" that scared me were the blank faced mannequins that came to life in that old doctor who episode. NOT the stupid ones in the new seres, that wasn't scary at all, it wasn't supposed to be, it was deliberately camp and silly. No, but the original was scary to me… Jebus, most Who monsters were from Daleks, to mummies, to giant maggots…
Cockroaches are cute as kittens compared to what we have in our basement (and sometimes our shower o.0).That thing is quite beautiful and very cute! I have nightmares occasionally with these things in them…
Bad pics but my cam isn't that great with close focus… It looks like some kind of armoured, burrowing cricket. They probably live on rotten detritus like cockroaches, but they still give me the willies… They're big, dark, sinister and fast…

Wha, I'm smart, it is a cricket, a Mole Cricket! :)
The house centipede is fast and smart, but the cockroach is faster and smarter. And can fly.
I used to be afraid of spiders. But after catching all kinds/sizes of spiders and keeping (and feeding) them in my room for half a semester for my Animal Behavior class, I got over it.
