Probably.. but I fear growing old more. I see old people looking all helpless and out of place and I just can't stand imagining myself in their shoes. That's two on my list.

I have an extreme fear of heights and mayonnaise.

You know that one pic of the breast with pomegranate seeds photoshopped onto it to look like some sort of freakish infection? No matter how many times I see it, and remind myself it's not real, that one photo never fails to put the shits up me.

I was reading a thread about weird phobias somewhere else, turns out a lot of people are irrationally freaked out by clusters. Clusters of birds, seeds, whatever.

Mayonnaise is terrifying. Especially when you're high up on a building.

I'm also afraid of cassette tapes breaking down. I'm always cautious around cassette tapes, I just hate the sound they make when they get jammed in the machine!

Exposed heights is probably my worst. Tall buildings and aircraft I feel safe in, or even at the top of a cliff provided I wasn't by the edge.

Or being killed by some kind of big piece of machinery like the mechanism for raising a bridge. I think that stems from being taken to a bridge tour by my parents when I was younger and they had a room where the ceiling lowered itself.

Or somehow receiving a massive dose of radiation, like those two guys from the Manhattan Project. A blue flash of light to let you know what's happened and that you're going to die, but it will take awhile and is going to be very nasty.

Same here. I'm terrified of it.

I'm afraid of living a mediocre life, working as a low level, white collar worker for some major corporation that treats the aforementioned workers like shit.

I have an immense fear of contracting an incurable illness/disease & of losing sight or hearing.
