Phobias
 

What are you afraid of? I have a fear of being afraid of heights, sometimes referred to as Illyngophobia.

Heights here too... well, fear of grounds. :rolleyes: I'm not comfortable up ladders, for instance.

I'm also shit-scared of water deeper than my waist. I can't go to the swimming baths, I can't go swimming in the sea, and I absolutely abhor boats.

Stop it, you're aggravating my fear of being afraid of heights!

I was almost attacked by a giant orange octopus at the beach, although I still love water and being in water and drinking water.

The ocean is a pretty scary thing to swim in. Waves, sea creatures, rocks.. it's very risky. I like it, though.

Last time I was in the ocean I got owned hardcore. I was body boarding without a board and I guess the waves were a little too big to be doing that... Anyway, I caught a monstrous one and ended up getting pretty far until the wave crashed and I got sent to the bottom of the ocean floor. Ended up on the beach with a bloody face due to the sand that was embedded in my skin. Good times.

Ah, a fear of being afraid of heights. I read it as simply afraid of heights.

Now that's an interesting one. Any idea how it came about?

Ending a terrible story with "good times" will not get you any e-poon, I'm afraid.

Because of assholes like you!

Aww.... but but but...

well I'll settle for some Grav-poon then.

It is a thing of guys who play guitar around small campfires [and always a carry a guitar with them just for this opportunity] to tell outrageous stories of disaster and end with "good times." Women fall for this until they are approximately 27 years old.

So I've got another 6-7 or so years for this amazing, hilarious stunt to work. Thanks for enlightening me, Grav! You're the best.

Women age faster where you're from, probably because of all the rape. Good times.

Indianapolis is a hotbed for raping activity?

I'm too handsome to be raped!!!

Just so you know, The Onion has got you all figured out. Here's the description of Indiana from "Our Dumb World:"

Hooting and hollering in overcapacity crowds, Indianans cherish the art of watching stuff, be it the Indianapolis 500, a basketball game, or even themselves looking like a complete idiot on the JumboTron.

Besides looking at the world's most well-loved paved oval, the citizens of Indiana also enjoy looking at home movies of their families watching auto racing, and love to curl up and look at a good book lying on the coffee table.

And over the past several decades, all of Indiana has watched from the comfort of their own living rooms as neighboring state Illinois grew into an economic powerhouse.

Auto racing is not my thing. Most people here love it, though. Personally, I haven't spent 5 minutes of my life watching cars go round and round 250+ times. Seems boring to me.

Although, that last statement is pretty true. Just take a look at my "Location". I won't deny it.

im clostrophobic. or however its spelled. i don't like small spaces at all. or bugs. i HATE bugs.

I'm afraid of heights, and I didn't particularly like it when I started swimming from the shore in Virginia Beach. I just don't like the idea of water flushing into my lungs and killing me.

I'm not a fan of height or bugs, but I wouldn't say I have a phobia of either. I can handle it.

I have a fear of heights and I hate being on ladders, but I have to be on ladders to put shit up or scan things out to put on the floor. So I kinda have to pretend I don't have that phobia.

i also have a fear of being afraid of heights, how wierd. not really scared of anything else i guess

I'm not afraid of heights, or falls ...it's just the sudden stop at the end of a fall that worries me :D. I don't like swimming in water that's deeper than my shoulders. I'm a tiny bit of a germophobe. It's all in vain, but still ...

Heights.
Used to have trouble with water. Not so sure anymore. Haven't been swimming in a while. Both chlorine and salt water cause me to itch like a bastard. Dry skin or something.
