I have the same problem with spiders
At least your fridge can't move by itself!

I had to flush a spider down the bath last nighr
I apologised to it as I did it.

I just don't want to touch it. The worst thing is when you see one, look away and IT'S GONE

My father has no qualms about picking them up in his hand and casually tossing them out of a window. But then he is a biologist. And I am a bit of a wuss.

Argh WASPS
My dad does the glass and card trick with them. He sometimes does the wrap-in-kitchen-towel-and-crush one but I hate feeling their bodies between my fingers. I just set my cat on them.

Said creature is curled up on a cushion on my window seat, paw over his nose, looking very peaceful. I'm struggling to write a decent cover letter.
I wish I were a cat.

I can actually rationalise it. But I'm still afraid of it

Why? I must know

The fridge can be expressed as the quotient of two integers, but can still be terrifying.
