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.

Giving blood
I don't mind needles at all, and when the doctor needs a sample of blood for tests or whatever, that's fine. However, I feel positively sick at the idea of donating blood, because:

1. That's a lot of blood.
2. It's my blood, and I made it, so it stays inside me!
3. I can't stand the thought of purposely pumping my own BLOOD out of my body!

I feel badly, because I would love to give someone my blood if they need it, and I think the idea of my blood helping someone else is really awesome. It's the idea of sitting there, pumping pints of it out of my body, that makes me ill.

A point of language...
When I see "Bunches" in conjunction with "blood"... it makes me do a double-take.

Nevermind: I'm being pedantic. Please accept my apologies and this bouquet of milk.

damn you humpty
I probably would have skimmed over that this early in the morning! Now I have images of weird blood hair in bunches.

I am fond of proper language
so I edited the offending word to "pints." Thank you, sir, for noting it.
