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.

Bagpuss.Yes, Bagpuss- the saggy cloth cat from the 70's kids show! Eurgh, it's so hard trying to write about something without picturing it in your mind! It's not just the disgusting fat lazy baggy cat that upsets me- those little mice scurrying round all high-pitched and squeaky-like, and that horrid know-it-all woodpecker- hideous- I'm sure the whole show was designed to scare the living daylight out of children.
Why did it have to go from sepia (creepy enough) to stop-motion? Just wrong wrong wrong.
A few years ago I was happily walking around my local Boots store looking for a suitable present for a friend's kid when I turned around to be faced with a whole aisle of Bagpuss themed goods. I had no idea they were making them, so not only did I have to drop my basket and run out of the shop, I had to endure weeks and weeks of idiots coming in the office happily displaying their new Bagpuss hot water bottle cover/ penholder/ flicknife/ sanitary products etc etc. Eurgh.
I have to go and lie under the shower for a while.
Professer Yaffle my *rse!
