 List of Phobias, I think there are 560 of em...  http://www.phobialist.com/index.html

I personally like Zemmiphobia- Fear of the great mole rat,
but, with school aproaching, the fear of going to school- Didaskaleinophobia...
kinda funny too is the fear of long words- Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia or Sesquipedalophobia...

 I love reading lists of phobias. Some of them are hilarious.

 *BAM*

The door leading into the bedroom slams shut with much momentum as the wind thrashes on inside from the open window.

I walk towards what I imagine to be the bathroom, to get a drink of water.  

I open up the door...

Wait, this isn't the bathroom....

It's the closet...

And that's not Mr.Bonkers the cat...

THAT'S THE DREADED FURBY!!!  AAAAHHH!!! RUN!!! BLIGHT IT WITH LIGHT!!! NOOOOOOOOO, IT AWOKE!  SHUT UP, STOP TALKING TO ME!! AAAAH!! RUN AWAY!!!

...And then I awoke... Looking straight into the face of the dreared furby.


Sorry, I couldn't resist... By the way, many people share your fear, Ashyra.

 Furbies are extremely frightening...
Once, I took the batteries out of mine, and I swear... I heard it move in the middle of the night and go, "uh oh Sarah..."

I shot out of bed soooo fast...  :blink:  freakish.

 Heh, you guys make me laugh *laughs*. My sister had a furby. It was so annoying I threw it in the toilet.

That wasn't a Furbie.  It was a gremlin.  Once I was in a Perkins restroom all by my lonesome when the stall door opened and closed by itself.  And I was at my church one night and the playground swings started swining at different times.....
