    Talking Anyone who wants...

    ...to have a good laugh at me, now's your chance. I have just been rescued by my heavily pregnant wife from...a spider. I'm arachnophobic, and the thing that just appeared in our kitchen made me realise that



    is in fact a documentary...

    My wife apparently realised that something was wrong when she heard a succession of thuds and a scream of fluent Eminem-ese from the kitchen. Go on. Laugh it up...you know you want to...

    hehe

    we all have weaknesses. so dont worry if yours is fear of spiders.


    i think many of us will be unsure what their weakness is... they will find out later in life. Im one of these people... So i hope it aint nothing too bad. Flying is ok, Spiders are ok, heights.. yeh im ok with them too...

    I'm sorry, you told me to laugh.

    Most people have phobias or something they're rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbish scared of. I'm claustrophobic, and nothing scares me more than being in a very tight space with no chance or getting out or anything. Even sitting right in the middle aisle between two people on an aeroplane is enough to make me feel uneasy :|

    Insects are fine, spiders too, only thing that really scares me is being struck by lightning - i'm fine with thunder storms unless the lightning and thunder gap is less than about 5 seconds.

    Then i start getting paranoid.....

    OK, that doesn't scare me overly. Yeah, its happened more than once , thankfully they were drunk so I can put it down to that, though its kinda hard when you have a Rugby hooker (The position, not the job ) vying for your attentions...

    But as to hates, spiders, most definitely. That and you white insects (Baby scorpions, spiders etc). They really freak me out, so much I can't even watch them on TV. I hated the 8 Legged Freaks ads (Cover my eyes) when it was in the cinema and now we have DVD trailers!

    I thinks its all down to the time I had that tarantula crawling over my face...

    Moths > all creatures

    They're so graceful in the way they fly around your light when you go to bed then seem to dissapear when you turn it off.

    ^^ They dissapear when you turn your light off because they hide on the end of your bed and wait for you to sleep so they can crawl into your mouth.... apparently.

    I dont like moths although I'll catch em to get them out of my room, well some times depends how brave im feeling or whether I have a female present and dont wat to look like a wuss. Its the same with spiders. I hate Heights although I managed to do a bungii jump, Sky coaster (huge 200ft swing in a harness) and a reverse bungii in a Gyro. My biggest fear of all is people, closed spaces and the thought of being berried alive. The thought of that gives me the Jibblies.
