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.

coppers
my fiancee's got a fear of copper coins or 'brown money'.

it's mostly the fact that it's been through so many different dirty hands, but i didn't help matters when i told her about the practice of 'how many coins can you fit in your foreskin'.

when she pays for stuff in shops i have to intercept the change when the till monkey hands it back just in case there are any brown coins in it.

i remember the time she threw her handbag halfway across the room because there were a load of 1p coins at the bottom of it. i picked up the bag to remove them only to discover they were in fact some cadbury's chocolate buttons which had leaked into the bottom of the bag some days earlier!

Yeah, coins can be manky
...but has she smelled a reasonably grubby paper money note recently? There's a reason they've got a lifespan of 18 months or so. And they don't taste nice either...
