I have noticed an abundance of threads recently about what defines us from other people. So, continuing along the same lines..... What Scares You!!

I am a timid little clock (believe it or not)!

What Scares Me:

1. clowns (especially that IT thingy)
2. lawn mowers (don't laugh - it's genuine)
3. fish (especially eels)

What scares you?

Ooh, nice thread, TF! (that lawn mower thing is cute, btw :P)
I know so many people who are scared of clowns, and mostly because of IT, too. I was scared of that particular clown, but overall I don't mind them.

My scary thingies:
1. Spiders!!
2. Snakes!!
3. Dolls. Especially barbie dolls. (should I have admitted that? lol)
4. Coming out of a seizure and not having any idea what happened

Nice thread TF.

what scares me...well waiting for my credit card bill, that scares the ♥♥♥♥ out of me.

I'm not sure if this counts as what scares me, but more like a phobia, but it's dogs, I can not go near dogs. As a child my friends dad was a police prison officer, and to cut a long story short, his police guard dog went for me.
This has left me with a phobia of all dogs, wild cherry knows how bad i am, when we went to watch big brother at the studio's i couldn't walk past the guard dogs there and wanted to go home, luckily the security guards could see my fear and escorted me past them . When I have been to wild cherry's house poor cherry has had to keep her dog's away from me. If i see someone walking a dog along the street I have to cross the road or even turn around and walk the other way.

lol... I think you are fine (you seem as if you have a good sense of humour anyway )

Just umm... I can't look at your avatar It really does genuinely freak me out

Only two things scare me....

1. Spiders, i run a mile when i see one

2. Heights, you should see me going up the ladders on the scaffolding, i go very slowly and pretend to be looking at the brickwork/concrete/rest of the site.

Ummm... how could you drown at a pubic speaking event

I have thought of another thing that scares me:

Maggots!!! Just the thought of putting my hands into a jar of them really does make me feel sick :S Also - our local council now have alternate week bin collections (a very big bug bear of mine). I am terrified that if I haven't cleaned the bins out properly or some food goes a bit rotten (which it will do in the Summer *cough-what-bloody-summer-cough*) that I will be infested with the funny, one eyed, wriggly things

Now I'm going to go hide under the desk. And whimper quietly to myself.

Ya know what? I was going to put down "presentations" as one of the things that scare me, that's freaky. And it really does. Always has done. I cannot give out presentations. Cannot do any sort of public speaking. I've been forced a few times in the past, but I've gone red in the face, talk too fast, and can generally hear my heartbeating instead of my own voice! It's one of the reasons why I chickened out of going to a formal university, and chose to do my degree at home instead. Sad, eh?

I'm weird :S

You missed out the fact that my hands shake like mental, but other than that you described me in that situation exactly.

Unless I've had a MAJOR dose of Dutch courage, but then I'm pretty incomprehensible. lol

my fears are

1. I suffer from Emetophobia
2. I hate anything with wings, that fly in you're face
3. Dirty kitchens and bathrooms

Emetophobia? Umm... an irrational fear of time travelling scientists with a penchant for saying 'great scott'? :S

Being ill, passing out, not eating enough
Anything that flies around even if it's in a cage
spiders, snakes, sloworms, and daddy long legs
Sick
I'm also scared of cooking for people, even though I do, incase I make them poorly.
My mother-in-law, seriously!

3) plastic little Barbie-like girls that wear makeup masks, slutty clothes, and talk, act and think like a skank.

I am clearly scared of being seen to use incorrect grammar... my previous message was too short so, to make up the required number of characters, I decided to use dots... but there was no way on earth I was going to use four dots in an ellipsis so I split them up!

Don't worry about the dolls thing, I can't handle them either...Any time at an old antique shop and those ceramic ones XD, I blame a horror movie I saw when I was little. Also clowns, but not the sight of them, I think that one may be wearing off...
