Phobias
What gives you the heebie-jeebies?
It's a bit strong to call this a phobia, but for me it's the thought of biting into a dry flannel. I've no idea why I'd ever want to or even get the opportunity to do so, seeing as I don't own one, but it makes my teeth hurt to think about it. *ewww*
Tell us what innocent things make you go pale, wobbly and send shivers down your spine.

You should have said "allegedly"
I've heard this before and prefer to believe it's bollocks. How would you prove it ? Yeah, that's right. You can't !

This "fact" was published in an article
demonstrating that people will believe anything that's circulated via the internet.

Damm
I wish it was true, I could understand why people would believe it though as its not beyond the realms of beleif!
I should have put "IN AMERICA" after it then it wouuld have been taken as fact.

I like the idea that...
...the figure is an average.
Since I've never swallowed a spider whilst asleep, there must some poor bugger out there that swallows hundreds every year.

I would like to see your research though
