I have a pretty weird one called trypophobia, here's a link for all of you who haven't heard it. It's not an 'official' phobia as such but quite a few people do have it.

Yikes...

Yeah, I have that too.. I can handle ear piercings (I have one) and stuff like that but any other hole in the body that's not meant to be there... Ugh, my skin crawls and I feel sick. Not a nice feeling at all.

I'm OK with looking down from tall buildings but I can't look up at them, I get so dizzy and feel uncomfortable :/
This.

I would say that I have Friggatriskaidekaphobia, or Hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia, but that would just be silly.
Both of those are real fears, by the way.

Lets see... I have a fear of Bloody Mary, going into bathrooms at night, using the bathroom at school, Australian rednecks (which is hilarious because I'm considered to be half american-redneck)...

I also have a fear of losing an eye or people who've lost an eye or people who are losing an eye, getting impaled by my own clarinet and getting my fingernails/toenails ripped off.

And losing my Mr Happy, of course.

Mosquitoes and ticks-- I am convinced if you get bit by one you devolop a rash and you might even die from it.


You don't.  There, now you're cured.

Actually, Mosquitos can carry a disease that makes you die in your sleep.

Arachnophobia is one of the few fears which I completely don't understand :s

At least 50% of spiders out on the pull, or simply moving house, are killed by misguided people. It makes me sad.

boo hoo sob story spiders going extinct

seriously though, there's a spider for every fly born. They won't even be endangered by the time I'm 500 years old.

Although, most spiders who have venom lethal to humans can't bite through our skin...and nearly all of those that can bite through our skin don't have strong enough venom. So...don't go to Australia.

I've seen Australia's spiders. Scare the sh!t out of me. Reminds me of a pic I saw:
"Australia- Where the spiders are so big they have health bars"

So, now... I fear nothing. 

That is what a real man should believe !

What I fear is mostly me losing all physical and mental power. Hell, I would rather commit suicide four times than be reduced to some sad, non-sapient vegetable in a bed.

Oh yeah, I'm also extremely paranoid of being kidnapped/mugged/raped/carjacked. Don't know why, I've always been like that, probably because I exposed myself to that sh** when I was younger (studying serial killers and what not on wikipedia) and needless to say, I am always carrying really sharp objects in my pockets just in case.

had something like that happen to me today

was trying to get my clarinet out, it was stuck against something, and then I accidently yanked it out and slapped the ledge above me (where the trombones and occasionally saxes keep their cases) and a trombone case was teetering dangerously in my direction.

and about 3 other people's directions, but hey, crowded case lock-up room.

At least you didn't get impaled by your clarinet.
