PhobiasWhat 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.

Time is all in its perceptionwhich means that the few seconds I endured at the top of one of those "vertical drop" things that are popular at theme parks lasted a very long time.
But not the first time I did it - then it seemed fine.
Instead, it was the second time I went on it. Just thinking back now to sitting there, strapped in, 100ft up or whatever it is, waiting for the inevitable fall downwards, is enough to make not only my palms sweat again but also my feet arch up and my teeth feel on edge. I swear if I had a time machine, despite all the stupid things I've done and said in my life, it would be the decision to go on it the second time that I would amend. The few seconds up there lasted for hours, I swear, and I'm amazed I didn't die of a heart attack.
God this QoTW is causing anguish to everyone, isn't it...
