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.

Carcrashes + crowds = hj'sI've been in three rather serious carcrashes since I was a child. The last one - about 4 years ago - left me with a rather pecualiar mental brain-poo: Sometimes, when walking down a crowded pedestrian street, (well, this gets a bit technical) one can momentarily find oneself on collision course with people walking in the opposite direction, until one of you change path (or, on some occations: bumps into you and probably steals your money). Well, whenever this 'about to collide'-thing happens to me, my brain freezes, adrenalin jolts through my body and I am stunned ½ a second. Of course, I enjoy this to the fullest extent, since the adrenaline thing turns this flaw into a very cheap extreme sport for broke pansies.

that's a good idea,enjoying the adrenalin rush. I've been the front seat passenger in 3 car crashes in the last 6 months and all I've got from them is extreme nervousness when other people are driving, even if they're really good drivers. The screaming stops after a while. The need to slam my foot down on an imaginary brake does not.
