[Archived] What's your biggest fear?

[Bundesburn]

I've got two:

Dying and flying. I'm not quite sure whether the relationship between the two is rooted in their rhyming with one another, but dying is definitely a sub-section within flying.

What're your fears? How've you combatted them?

Come on, we're all friends here!

[den]

Nothing dangerous about flying. It's crashing that's dangerous.

[adopted scouser]

A group of clueless, third world businessmen actually buying Rovers. Turning the club into a laughing stock, alienating all the fans, selling all the best players, appointing a series of inept managers, getting the club relegated and asset stripping before they f*^* off during the night.

Now that would be a nightmare

[Tom]

Death - the worst thing about it is knowing that my fear will beat me in the end, that and Clowns

[Sparky Marky]

Filthy Indian Curry Houses

Bit deep this - and probably an obvious one:

Not being able to provide for my family.

Oh yeah good one thats a constant worry at present with the amount of jobs that seem to be going left right and centre!

[Clitherover]

Losing to Burnley at Ewood.

spiders and venkys

[Salgado Is A Hero]

Spiders (bigger ones). Even a picture of one.

Horrible creatures.

[RoyRover]

I have a fear of flesh being pierced by knives. I used to be petrified of needles but I'm not as bad anymore.

I'm not afraid of death, although the idea of the world and life just continuing does freak me out a bit, but I am afraid of it in relation to my family.

[ABBEY]

Wasps

[Aberdeen Blue]

Venky's

[Paul]

Large spiders.

[dave birch]

Large spiders.

Nothing that the bottom of a thong (flipflops to those north of the equator) couldn't solve.

Actually, as I got older I realised fears come and go.

Used to go climbing, now hights bother me.

I developed and then got over claustrophobia.

Death is no longer a concern, I have a greater worry over missing out on new technology, and not being able to do the things that I haven't managed yet.

[Mike Graham]

1. Sha**ing a woman then finding out she has 6 fingers and supports the retards

2. Not having a big enough pension pot.....and being able to enjoy it

[Amo]

So many afraid of spiders. You big gurl's bras. They're more afraid of you than you are of them... or is that bears?

[DE.]

Death doesn't actually frighten me at all. Not sure why, it just doesn't. If I was a Christian or a Muslim I'd be absolutely petrified of dying, mind.

I've always had a bit of an irrational fear of moths. No idea why, just hate them. Aliens (as in the outer space kind) illogically creep me out massively as well.

[Mike E]

Geese, the @#/?s.

Tends to be creepy-crawlies in general for me, not just spiders :/

[perthblue02]

Iv'e got two Mice /Rats, scare me to death and go into a blind panic when I see one, verging on a phobia can't even watch em on tele, the other is dwarves and midgets especially their fingers.

Now if I ever come across a mouse or rat with dwarf hands think I'd collapse of an heart attack

[neekoy]

Externally, something happening to my children...... Internally, Mice

[Mike E]

Come to think of it, a pretty big fear of mine atmo is not getting a job once I'm done at uni in May.

Surely thats a worry, not a fear in terms of a phobia?

Mines heights, ironic in some ways as I'm 6'4.

Indeed, but still a scary thought that I could be lumbered in the same bracket as no-mark scrotes who don't want to work and treated as such by the govt.

Heights is understandable but all relative imo. When it's one of the few phobias we have with evolutionary benefits, I find it slightly odd to call it a phobia as we're all scared of heights to some degree surely?

Apart from Felix Whatshisname.

A fear of heights is illogical. A fear of falling, on the other hand, is prudent and evolutionary."
