This is a question 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.

In response to the post on a phobia of certain numbers...
... I'm like that, but not to the extent that it bugs me.

Football scores, for example - I'd rather England win 5-3 than 6-3 'cos 5-3 is a "better score."

Examples of bad scores are 4-3, 5-2, any 6-x besides 6-0 and 6-1 and the same for 7 and (rarely, if it happens) 8.

x-1 is always OK as is x-0. I have very few problems with draws but anything above 3-3 is a bit shit.

This is true...
... but they were an example.

When we lose 4-3 I'd rather we lose 4-2.
