Wow, you think you've got strange phobias?

[HEyHEY]

My co-worker just informed me she can't touch that cardboard they wrap tv dinners in.

She says it makes her cringe and she feels sick.

She just had my boss cook her tv dinner for her.

[Liberal Veteran]

1. I can't touch anything that casts a shadow.

:)

[Oreo]

2. How does she buy them?

[HEyHEY]

4. I guess her kid...she handed it to the boss while using her shirt as a

buffer

[johnnie]

3. Sounds like a good way to get the boss to do her work

I have to start coming up with some phobias also.

[bif]

5. My neighbor is afraid of ferns!

Honest. Because they remind her of spiders! That's about the strangest phobia I've ever herd.

[jdots]

6. My dog has a phobia about not barking

he would eat the t.v. dinners card board and all. HEy HEY be carefull this woman could be dangerous.

[HEyHEY]

7. I told her to get a bowl cause she's freakin us all out

[dmkinsey]

8. jdots ROCKS

hilarious

[skygazer]

9. I have a phobia about people with phobias

I just can't stand being near them. They creep me out.

[HEyHEY]

11. Same with my drunk barber

He hates "Unstable people" "cause you never know what they're gonna do"

[JohnKleeb]

10. ok I feel normal :)

thanks man.

[NuttyFluffers]

12. not quite a phobia, but damn petrified of...

parasitic worms that burrow and feast on living skin. dragon eye worms and others just give me the willies. that and freaky spirochete bateria that eats the spongey tissue in the penis making taking a piss as though through an inflamed, fiery sieve also makes me shudder. yeah, death doesn't scare me, parasites scare me.

yeah, if i ever visit the Congo i'll be in a big plastic bubble. i'd advise you to do the same.

[warrens]

13. Roughly my feeling about

That friggin cotton they put into pill bottles. Makes my skin crawl.

[Shoeempress]

14. Having to bite cotton at the dentist. It's like nails on a chalk board to

me.

[hollywood926]

15. Remember that guy from St. Elsewhere? Howie Mandel?

He brings his kids to my place of employment, which I won't divulge, and he always wears gloves and won't shake anyone's hand or open a door. He has that germophobia or whatever it's really called! ha!

But he has a good sense of humor about it.

[obreaslan]

16. I have a friend whose freaked out by wool...

Can't touch it, won't touch it.

[FeelinGarfunkelly]

17. the commercial for the toenail fungus drug

OHMIGOD that thing scares the $#!7 out of me. When the thing goes over to the big toe and lifts up the nail like a car hood..
it pains me just writing about it because I can feel it in my toes. SICK SICK SICK

[Malebolgia]

21. I know what you mean!

That %$#2ing grosses me out!

[Kat45]

18. It's weird that she can't touch it but she can eat out of it.

But as I know first-hand, phobias rarely make sense.

[bicentennial_baby]

19. I can't touch cotton balls or velvet

Velour is barely ok, b/c it's a little bit rougher than the other 2. Ugh. Cotton Balls make my whole body tingle and all of my hairs stand on end. It's a yucky feeling.

[Rhiannon12866]

20. So why doesn't she just bring a sandwich?

I had a co-worker with a very strange phobia. When I worked at my first summer job, I went with my two-coworkers to the wake of an older man who worked with us who had been killed in a car crash. When it came time to sign the guest book, I had to sign it for one of them, since he couldn't sign his name. We've lost touch and I've often wondered if he's been able to overcome this to manage in the real world.:shrug:

[ironflange]

22. Crumbs in the margarine

If I open the tub and find someone has left toaster crumbs in there, it just makes my skin crawl. I sure let everyone in the house know how much I like that, believe me.

[Metatron]

24. My brother hates styrofoam.

Apparently, the sound freaks him out. Because I am a good person, I have avoided packing up a huge box of styofoam to give to him for Christmas. I certainly am tempted every year, though. :evilgrin:

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

23. I'm afraid of Scotsman

:scared:
