Phobias

I haven't exactly gotten to the stage of Acrophobia, but I'm not a fan of heights. As a teenager at school, I was invited to a race with a colleague where I was running on the corridor along a block of classrooms. He, on the other hand, was running on a ledge approximately 3 feet wide on the side of the building opposite but parallel to the corridor. The race ended with him running full speed to use a concrete pillar as his brake. Had he slipped and stumbled close to the finish, he would have fallen four stories. Worst bit is that he won the race.   

What's your phobia?  


What's the weirdest one that someone you know, has?

I suffer from Pistolpetaphobia.

As lads we used to play on a building site,and one day decided to crawl through some stacked drainage pipes. I managed to get stuck half way along with my arms pinned to my sides. I still get cold sweats thinking about it.

Life to be honest.

Transphobia.

Not a phobia, for me - I'm just not overly pleased to come in contact with them!  

Clitaraphobia (sic) - a phobia of the northern town of clitheroe...i'm sure that what it means anyway.

What do you mean?

One of my niece's lads has a button phobia. He won't wear anything with buttons, which narrows a lot of his fashion options. He'll be 16 in December, and there's no sign of him growing out of it.

How did he get that Boncey? Did he swallow a button as a kid? 

Needles for me.
