"Phobias"

I think that how you spell it, phobias. Anyway, excuse me if I am wrong. Who would think I was in top set for English? Ah well.

Ok, most of us have phobias (If you spell it like that) something that we are 'scared' or 'afraid' of. Most phobias have names such as Arcanicphoiba (How was I meant to spell that?) where people are scared of Spiders. There are many names for diffrent phobias.

Many of us maybe even scared to tell our friends of our phobias as they are so pathetic.

So, how many of you have phobias of something?

I have one of Pigeons :-<, I walk down the town and try and dodge them. in fact one swooped at me the other day protecting his territory.

My phobia of pigeons started when I was walking down the town one day and suddenly, out of nowhere, flew a pigeon out of a bin. i did'nt even see it come. It shocked me so much that now I hate going near them, I walk in my posse down the town and silently dodge them.

So what are you phobias and how did you get them? Have you ever tryed to get rid of your phobia and how?

Does anyone know the phobia of Pigeons? LoL!

And yes, I am afraid of Trafalger Square.

This is my last shark related comment.

I know RBS that great whites don't like human flesh. I just like frightening people.

Great whites mistake humans for seals and large fish. They don't like the taste of humans because they usually let a human go once they have took a bite of a person, leaving them with a massive scar.

great whites are endangered you know...

Guitar fish - Sometimes called a guitar shark, this fish is of the same genus as the rays and has a shape that makes its name obvious.

From Red Sea: A to Z.

I have a card set somewhere, from an ancient PG tips collection (early 80's, 'do I ever throw anything away?' I hear you ask!) that shows a larger Guitar fish and clearly describes that it has an electric charge. Next time I'm at my parents I will dig them all out, there are some fascinating creatures in it.

Nope that's not true. No sharks actually have a taste for human, they mistake them for animals like turtles and stuff. Really they're massively misunderstood... but that doesn't stop me being terrified of the little bleeders. I think it's the eyes that are the worst... Lifeless black eyes... ARGHHH!

Smaller Guitar fish, it seems, have no electric shock, and can be used in comedy photos....

Then the most frightening of them all... no I'm not even gonna say it's name.

The great white is the daddy of all sharks though.

Its the one in the jaws films and they have a taste for human flesh.

Id think twice before i went swimmin in the sea again...
