Aliens walking in the distance.
Like if they're running right at you with violence in mind, that is a completely rational fear, no problem.
But if I were standing on my front porch and saw an inhuman alien gray walking down the street, even if it didn't look my way, I would freak the fuck out.
Even the idea, the thought of that happening can make my hair stand on end.
Blowers. It's what I called pool drains (and lights and vents). Still hate them.
And this one is more of a 'it would be terrible and now I can't stop thinking about it' thing, but steep hills, and how awful it'd be to just roll back down them. In a car or on foot. You just suddenly lose control and start plummeting backwards. I got it worst when I was in San Fran.
I have this irrational fear of anything that makes a fire. Like seriously I'm scared of lighters. Well if that means I will never smoke then I'm fine with that. Secondly, I have this fear of height that makes me kinda scared of ladders. Kind of a pain in the ass when I need to fix stuff around the house. And finally, I have a fear of even the smallest dogs just because I got bit by one this one time on the way home in 7th grade. It's been close to a decade and I still can't really be near a dog. I'm fine with cats tho. I have one and he's my whole world.
Closing logos, some movies, videotape bumpers, network bumpers, and certain movie characters.
Like the signs that say, "closed" or like logos that never are left opened and are a closed loop?
Logos you see on television and home video.
Like maybe this one? Would you be scared?
Gravity reversal. Like suddenly gravity switches to a universally repellent force and everything on the surface of the Earth starts falling into space (me included). Eventually you'd just "fall" away and the atmosphere too and you'd suffocate.
Holy hell wtf why did you make me think of that?! That's worse than deep water!
Needles. Oh, and getting cut on my wrist or Achilles heel.
i mean, that last one did in Achilles, and that dude was basically invincible. On a normal person like you or me, that'd obliterate us in an instant.
Sharks in dark swimming pools
Nice try.
