Irrational Fear #5: Basically Everything Else

Since irrational fear month is now coming to a close, I'm basically going to clump the rest of my irrational fears that weren't interesting enough to be their own post into this post.  How fun!

  • Change
    • Change sucks.  I hate it.  Who knows how it is going to work out?  I don't.  Which lead us to..
  • Fear of the Unknown
    • If I can't figure it out, I don't like it.  That's probably why I hate physics...and change...and space...
  • Heights
    • I suppose this is more of a rational fear than some of the other ones, but heights still terrify me regardless.  Although I do want to go skydiving one of these days. I might bring a spider so that I can defeat more than one fear while I'm doing this.
  • Crowds
    • I don't like people to begin with.  Now throw a whole bunch of them in a small room with barely space to squeeze through and my constant expectation that the zombiepocalypse will begin any minute and we've got an irrational fear.
  • Cars Braking in Front of Me
    • When I see cars braking, I will always give an unnecessary distance because I have a feeling that they are either going to slam on their brakes or the person behind me will slam into me.  Both are unfavorable.
  • Cars Following Me
    • Whenever I see a car take the same exact turns as I do for more than three turns, I am not going to be okay with that.  They are probably spies sent by some unknown government agency to kill me for something that I said...or will say.
  • Electricity
    • I always feel like I'm going to end up shocking myself whenever I plug something in.
  • My Computer Dying
    • Let's face it.  The Acer isn't a baby anymore.  She's put a few years on her now.  She's been running a bit slower and one of these days (probably before something important) she's going to conk out and I will be stuck scrambling to regain my data because God forbid I back any of my crap up!
  • People
    • People are scary.  Let's face it, they just are.
That's about it as of now.  Give it time...there will be more.  Now, I was tempted to put the Zombiepocalypse down as an irrational fear, but I'm sort of looking forward to it, so I guess that just doesn't work here...

Asthmatically Yours,
Brian
