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.

I CAN'T be the only one!?
When I was a young'un, back in the late 80s, early 90s, I was TERRIFIED of the Channel 4 ident. You know the one, with the booming, dramatic, fully-paid-up-orchestra and scary, angular '3D' coloured sticks flying towards my face like daggers.

Even today, the music sends shivers down my spine.

Worse still, Channel 4 released some limited edition 'bespoke' idents, once was the 4 turning into a basketball player (with bouncing orange ball), one was a christmas tree, one was a football player (for football Italia).

And the VERY worst, cake-taking, scariest ident in the history of EVER was the early 90s Channel 4 Horse Racing ident, when the sticks would turn into a horse's head, which would snort out hot air. A fucking horse's head! I spent my childhood terrified that I would wake up next to a snorting mass of coloured sticks whilst the Royal Philharmonic played the deathly theme.

I was even scared of the Hamlet Cigars piss-take telly advert.

I don't think I'm odd. It's a perfectly rational phobia (*sob*)

Not odd at all
The original Open University logo on BBC2 early in the morning used to shit me right up!

American Football
Do you remember the American Football C4 logo, with the helmet on and the steamy snort of breath?
