    Spiders, Death, but worst of all the Emergency Alert System sound--the noise that comes on TV during a storm, or amber alert. I hate it.:mad:

    Spiders, the house being broken into, more spiders, certain heights, and did I mention spiders?

    Oh yeah and car fires or other mechanical malfunctions. Ya'll don't know what'll happen. And spiders.
    And the ironic thing here is that my girlfriend LOVES spiders. If she could have a pet tarantula she would. fml. Scares the crap out of me

    Being trapped in small spaces or in uncomfortable positions (claustrophobia I think?), heights, swarms of insects, deadly animals, and isolated places (where nobody can hear and see me nor can I hear and see them).

    lets see....being in a dark room with no ableness to turn the lights on...heights...bees,wasps,and other giant indsects...jumpscares...hmm...i cantthink of anything else

    and guys,elevators are EXTREMELY safe,elevators have 6 cables suspending them,each cable can suspend a entire elevator car fullyloaded,and if the cables do fail there are brakes on the elevator car that will clamp against the walls of he elevator shaft and keep it from falling,and if all else fails there are buffers at the bottom of the shaft

    elevator failures are quite rare actually.

    hmm lets see...idk if i am scared of anyth-oh wait i am scared of goping round those bends on the motorway,my mom used to go around them doing 60 MPH in our SUV,not fun

    my dad goes around those on the car doing 60 but its not as scar,it isscary due to the suv having tons of body roll,it tends to lean to one side,feels like it gonna flip

    oh and rollovers,those terrify me,every time i think of a rollover it reminds me of final destination

    Huge waves. Nightmares of mile high waves parting the clouds.
    Heights. Flying is fine but if I get over 10 feet on a ladder I literally freeze.
    The thought of a 2 pound spider nesting in the attic.

    Good day.

    Politicians.

    Seriously now, mosquitos. Everytime I hear those fuckers buzzing around at night my heart starts to race, and I refuse to go back to sleep until they are squashed into a bloody mess.

    Annoying sounds. I get either angry or experience adrenaline induced fear responses both from shit like people breathing too loud or sort of sloppy wet noises. A 3 year old eating a sandwich can have me on edge if I'm within hearing distance.

    Well... I used to be scared of elevators. Now only the chance of getting stuck in an old elevator for a couple of hours... I like spiders, and don't mind insects, as long as their not infesting areas, there's a daddy-long-legs inhabiting each corner of my room to control the amount of mosquitoes, and I like heights up to a certain extent, although slightly scared of them, depending what I am standing on (I wouldn't mind being 80ft up in a tree, as long as there are lots of strong branches, or close enough to the edge of a cliff to be safe but still see down below). I also love bees, despite being stung by one twice, but I know now how to remove the venom sack the bee attaches to your skin. Plus bees won't hurt you unless you do something to them... and they are Earth's best pollinators (no bees = massive ecosystem collapse) I don't really like wasps because they are aggressive, but I'm not really scared of them. (So please, just let bees do their work, and don't kill them.)

    The only thing that comes to mind of me being scared of is toasters (I don't know when the toaster will be finished, so the noise of the toast ejecting startles me), and stupid drivers. Also the way people drive on roundabouts in North America... I don't actually know many people the use them properly. I can't think of anything else but there are definitely other smaller things out there that scare me for some odd reason...

    Thats because american roads are straight so as soon as you make a road feature which is inherently not straight it screws with the system.

    I recall a guy on steam (not BeamNG'er) telling me I know nothing of the evils of a roundabout because there are 4 in his town.
    Right, 4 roundabouts in the entire town, that is so pioneering. Come to my little town. 1 road, just 1 of the many roads in the town, 14 roundabouts. Road is maybe 2 miles long? 14 roundabouts in 2 miles. I tried to count how many there are in the entire town and got bored at 30. Now tell me about your 4 little roundabouts why don't you?

    Hell, come have a look at the M25 london orbital. 1 motorway that goes around in a circle outside london, the euro truck simulator players that have done any UK deliveries may be familiar with it. I'd say its the worlds largest roundabout essentially.

    There's a roundabout on the road that my school is on. I've seen so many kids in the grades above me who drive like maniacs on it (assuming traffic on it isn't clogged up, as it usually is).

    We have a few in Knoxville (where I live). They're actually most popular in parking lots for big shopping centers and such.
    People handle them pretty well though.
    Well I guess I should participate
    I'm not really scared of much stuff. I'm kind of an adrenaline junkie.
    Probably my only irrational phobia is like underwater shit.
    Even though I spend tons of time on the lakes, just stuff like submerged trees and stuff like that freak me the fuck out. I don't really know why it just does. I'm getting better about it though.
    I love heights. I love being up high on stuff. Suspended or not, I just do.

    I used to have an irrational fear of pool drains as a child. That was because my grandma told me that they suck you in and make you drown when I was 4 years old. I've gotten over that though. And for some reason I have this stupid fear of seaweed, and not like seaweed in the ocean, but seaweed in lakes. I've always have had a fear of it since I was a child. Now it isn't really a fear, I just hate swimming in shallow parts of a lake where seaweed is. I'm perfectly fine swimming in the middle of the lake where its 80+ feet deep. I'm actually at my lake right now and it is beautiful. I'm extremely sore from tubing way too hard though.

    HATE
    -Lifts (stuck twice, not a phobia i just take the stairs when i can)
    -Fire (Two house fires and one chimney fire. It appears a fear of fire is not even unreasonable in my case)
    -Not knowing my family's whereabouts (We lost my sister for 3 days in greece and i never recovered lol)

    LOVE
    -Heights (Done a lot of free climbing in the past although not do much recently)
    -Speed (self explanatory)
    -Adrenaline (Born and bred junkie. BMX, fast cars, speedboats and even a stunt plane once.)

    Stairs with no railings. I don't feel scared, my balance just isn't right. Also, roller coasters and things of that sort.

    Nah, neither him, nor his army is that big of a thread. Even his nukes were tiny. And most of his missiles simply fail. He says he has a super mighty military, but seeing as none of them have any war experience whatsoever, most of them are starving, and ill-equipped with bad rifles and gear, He couldnt even overtake Sweden (Thats a joke because the swiss are neutral, im not saying that swedish people are weak or anything). North Korea will never go to war with us, or any other major country. And if they do, they will get squashed like a little bug.

    OT: my only fears are being alone and drowning
