Funny Phobias

[BoredBloke]

Cheese - can't touch the stuff. Some food with it on looks really nice e.g. pizza, but I can't eat it. Get this thought that it is really really sour milk and makes me gag.

Cabbage - can't stand the stuff

Not so much a phobia, but I avoid women wearing purple. There's something about women that wear purple that I find it best to give them a wide berth.

A mate of mine is properly scared of bananas - his wife has a fear of buttons, my gf is scared of wet paper, my ex of raw tomatoes, and another mate is scared of clowns.

Me? Wasps - can't go near the little gits, nearly chopped my gf in half when holding a knife in the kitchen and a wasp flew onto my neck. Also ants, especially the flying ones.

Ergophobia, although I don't agree that this is in any way irrational as it is very commonplace.

Fishhooks for me. I can hold them and bait them, I just don’t like the look of em!

Generally anybody from this government makes me want to smash up my telly - but I suppose that isn't irrational

Actually Gay Gordons mouth when he is talking - when he takes a breath and his jaw goes slack.

Hmmmm. If we could only stop him from taking that breath . . . .

Nope. Used to hate spiders years ago but don't really have any phobias anymore. As for wasps, I feed them. Come late summer and the xoggoth garden is thick with wasps attracted to all the little bits of jam I put out for them. They never sting me because I am nice to them.
