I have a lot to say on the subject of being afraid. We are a world of fraidy-cats! I am going to post a few things on this subject so that you may learn, Grasshoppers!
First, a few odd ones:
- Arachibutyrophobia – Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of your mouth. That’s nutty!
- Nomophobia – Fear of being without your mobile phone. Suffered by 99% of cellphone owners.
- Xanthophobia – Fear of the color yellow. Can you imagine being stuck in a dark room with a banana?
- Scumbagaphobia – Fear of people realizing you are a sociopathic megalomaniac with a bad comb-over, totally undeserving of a second term!
- Dumbassaphobia – Believing any of the 30,000+ documented lies told by a sufferer of Scumbagaphobia.
- Ablutophobia – Fear of bathing. It is possible not to know you have this and then only your co-workers suffer.
- Inflammophobia – Fear of not posting a daily insipid rant and actually spend your time accomplishing something of value.
…to name a few.
