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.

I mentioned earlier that I can't stand cheese...Had to go see the Dr yesterday - my finger has swollen up and is very painful.
He took one look and said "It looks like gout." (cue much hilarity form the SO when I told her).
Anyhoo, I googled gout to see what I could do to help - you guessed it, cheese apparently is a food type which can help. The SO decided I needed to be tied down (I'm fine with THAT bit) and force fed cheese.
When she said this, I went pale and fainted.

My dadhad gout recently. He was in agony with it and couldn't walk (It was in his legs, not his finger, obviously).
Thing is, he eats a lot of cheese...

Low purine foods help apparentlyAnd the nasty mouldy milk based stuff is one of them apparently...
*shrugs*
The swelling seems to have gone down now (phnar, phnar) and pain receded so I'm happy for now
