I'm not good with heights.
I'm not fond of bugs (but the biting kind are quite fond of me). Crawly things with lots of legs freak me out.

But what I REALLY fear? Getting called into my boss's office and getting a new one ripped for spending so much time on 'poly. Could get fired for that.

I'm scared of it in general. A truly revolting spectacle.

Just bugs... Wasps, spiders etc.

If I'm afraid of anything else, I haven't encountered it yet.

I don't get why people are scared of invertabrates and reptiles. I bet it has something to do with the BS pre-Darwin belief that they are "inferior" to us, because fear of these things seems to be a thing of the western world. The only arthropod that scares me is the mosquito. I think baby lizards are cute, actually.

Have any of you killed a fly with your own hand, then realized that it had some larvae inside? And the things start to crawl all over your hands... yuck!

Plaigarism is a pretty scary thing, Mr. Fun.
No nod to the originator, eh?


Hmmmm....I'd have to say..."unfinished business" scares me.

I'm afraid Mr. Fun might enjoy a good ass beating.

We'll have to think of some other punishment...hmmm...ladies night at the local meat market?

You're really on a roll tonight Drake.

As for me, I'd have to say coyotes. Going for a walk one day, I saw one run maybe a foot in front of me, after sitting in the grass so I could not see him. When I saw the coyote jump out of the grass, I took off like a shot across the field. To top it off, a friendly neighbour laughed at me later since she saw me with binoculars out in the field.

I am really scared of spiders. I also have a weird feeling about heights - I'm not so much scared of them as I feel like jumping off the side and flying.

Now that scares me more than the heights themselves.

Spiders are really good boiled with butter and garlic. Try it, you might like it!

Just don't go jumping off any buildings just because Morpheus does it. Follow someone who isn't just running a programme.

I have a nasty thing against of all worm-like creatures, like (duh) worms, centipedes, millipedes, caterpillars, etc... they give me the creeps

Ironically enough I happen to love snakes despite them being not that much different physically...

Other than that I love most animals no matter how creepy they are.

Me too. I get this great curiosity to experience the new thrill of jumping off or stepping under a train or whatever. Then I think "What the **** was that about?" and move on.
