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.

And another one
Not sure if it's a phobia, or just teeth-grindingly annoying.

Tannoys.

Or Intercoms, Paging, call it what you will.

"Bing Bong Garble Garble Krkkkk Click"

We've got one at work and whenever I hear the "BingBong" and then the recptionist putting on her poshest accent, rather than get off her useless dwarfed ginger arse for two frigging seconds, I want to go postal.

And I'm reminded of Nerys Whatsit and "Hello Campers".

Grr.

Ambling around Sainsbury's, its "Bing Bong Sullen 18 Year Old Trying To Sound Enthusiastic In Her Minimum Wage Existence About Price Reductions".

Double Grr.

Railway stations and airports. Why do they give people with no command of any human language, let alone English, access to the PA system? Herds of innocent travellers rush hither and thither like bewildered lemmings as they attempt to follow the instructions of 'the voice in the sky'. Just put up some bloody signs.

Grrrrrrr.


*She's bloody done it again*
