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.

Spiders. Major freak out.In particular, Huntsmans.
I have had several run ins with the hairy fuckers.
One morning, opened the laundry door to let the cat in, and I feel this thing, drop onto my head. No biggie, until it starts CRAWLING DOWN MY FACE!!!!!!!!!
Cue lots of screaming, swearing and crying at the top of my lungs for a good quarter of an hour. This was at 7 am so it was not a good start to the day. I refused to go in the laundry for a good week.
Another time, I was cleaning out the fish tank, and I took it outside to give it a good scrub. it's a bit glassy (as the normally are), so, me thinks, hmm, better get a crate.
So I goes and gets the crate and I'm halfway back to where I was, and I feel this thing running up my arm. I look down and there's ANOTHER fucking huntsman crawling up my arm.
Cue more screaming, swearing and crying and jumping up and down and running away.
I'm not very good with daddy long leg's either. they always seem to try and perve on me in the shower. Every time we have daddy long leg's in the bathroom, they drop into the shower, while I'm in it.
I'm not very good with small spiders either. I think this is because we have many red backs, white tails and smallish black widows. Not very good at all. I'm getting quite shaky now just remembering these events and facts.
I also hate hate hate the site of blood. It makes me shake and go really pale, and my stomach turns to ice which then floods through my veins. This will not help me in my endeavours to become a doctor I don't think .

SpidersI lived in Oz for a few years when I was a kid and fucking hell do I remember huntsmans. A bit different to Ireland where the biggest you will see is a daddy long legs. Huntsmans can get HUGE, they used to freak the hell out of my mother too.

YupMet some last year in Queensland. Here is one about to attack and destroy my mate's fingers.
(Actually, he just put his hand there to show the size of the thing. They're harmless, I believe)
