This is a question Irrational Fears

My mate Dan is afraid of turning his back on a flushing toilet. "It'll suck me in", he says. Can you beat him with your own true story of an irrational fear?

I'm long since over this now
but when I was very young, I used to be scared of the sound of an audio cassette being chewed up by a tape recorder, and would always be slightly wary of using tapes in case it happened. I don't know why, but just the thought of it used to make me feel horrible.

Edit: Oh yes, and at some point my friend showed me how to play tapes fast by holding down the pause button a little way on most tape decks, but because this reminded me of my fear of tapes being chewed up, it also gave me the creeps.
