Weird Phobias (anyone else out there?)

Anon — Tue, 14 May 2013 17:15:10 GMT

Well hello everyone!
Now today i'm going to be talkin' about some odd phobias. I am troubled by a rather odd one myself, and I'm not lying!
Globophobia, the fear of balloons. I think it's because one burst in my face as a little kid, I don't know but they are HORRIFYING to me 😞

As I was researching that ridiculous fear, I felt a teensy bit better, as i came across several that were just..crazy.
What do you all think?

Lachanophobia- Fear of vegetables
Genuphobia- Fear of knees
Arachibutyrophobia- Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth.

There's hundreds more, unfortunately.
Do you have any odd fears?

Being afraid of balloons bursting in your face is really not that weird, it's actually quite cute 😉

I'm afraid of eating thick chunks of bacon because I nearly choked on one of those when I was a child. It's a shame, bacon tastes to nice!

Hahahaha, I hate using "Lol" but I laughed at that XD
Eating huge chunks of bacon? I feel sorry for you that huge chunks of bacon can no longer have a place in your life, bacon is a magical thing, truly 😛

If I could post a massive bacon GIF then i would, but it might terrify you!

Phobias..hmm i am not sure if you can call it a phobia.. But I don't deal well with horror =/ I can watch through gore and bloodshed from a battle scene but not horror and I have no idea why! Even if I know it's not real!!

Actually if you follow Uberfacts on twitter they usually have loads of weird random stuff and often weird phobias too!!

I would love a huge bacon gif, I still like eating bacon, I just can't have it in huge chunks 😉

I have a friend who is terrified of swimming in lakes or in the sea since she's been attacked by a starfish (yes, you heard that one correctly)

Well here you are, although it's a little too flashy, takes away from the bacon I do think!

aaaaaaaahh i LOVE supernatural 😄
And of course Patrick Starfish!
Haven't been able to watch it in ages but after these exams i'm totally gonna get back to where I left off!

I'm blinded but not scared by that bacon because it's not chunky 😉

Being scared of balloons bursting and of horror movies is not too weird, guys. My favourite one is still this: Anatidaephobia - the fear of being watched by a duck 😄

They can be scary...

I thought i'd take a philosophical point of view of this with a prehistoric friend of mine..

Mayonaise makes my skin crawl.

Got a tiny smudge on my pinky, and puked, yep the stuff is vile...

If someone is eating it around me, I'll leave the room..

Had a job interview once for a clothes shop, the woman who was interviewing me had a half eaten mayo/ham/everything else sandwich on the table..

Needless to say I left before she got my full name!

Oh dear Loubear.. I like mayo.. How did this intense dislike come into place ? Quite bizarre but what can I say I mean I hate balloons .. Imagine balloons filled with mayonnaise ... Eww

my biggest fear is being alone... if that's a phobia.

Loubear , have you ever heard of the anime Gin Tama/Silver soul? Well there's this one character in it who would make your skin crawl.. Hijikata Toushirou..

Ugh, yeah I'm familiar with this god dammmm character,

If he were real, I'd be even more disgusted!

First time I laid my eyes upon him I gagged for Ireland!!

Sick!

And no, nothing triggered my hatred and fear of Mayo.... I'm just naturally out of ease!

Better late than ever adding my 'odd' phobia ... The smell of raw (uncooked) meat, Urrrggghhh - bet you can smell it too just thinking about it now... Vegetarian anyone?
