Triskaidekaphobia -- The fear of the number 13

Fairly self-explanatory I think. Have fun and feel free to explain yourself in reminiscences and true stories.

Our DK would never hang geek chicks! ohmy.gif

Altho' he might batter/fry, or shake and bake, or maybe oven roast and eat them.

At first I the poll was about Trinkaondaphobia which I suffered from for a while until he was traded to Florida. Then it didn't bother me much when he was "on D."



QMU, I love the ketchup1sr.gif reference, though. clapping.gif

I have three phobias. Claustrophobia, Musophobia, and fear of clowns (which doesn't have a fancy Greek name).

Musophobia

I guess that means you don't like going to Disneyland or playing this game:

If that is a freaking photo of a rat, I'm glad it didn't post properly!! <jumps up on chair>

By the way, rats and mice are same, same to me. And I will never venture to Australia because they have those big jumping, pouched rats!! <shivers>

Hmm, I can see the harmless illustration ... how about this version?



Pet rodents are just fine ... even those bushy tailed ones that run through the parks begging for handouts. Although a girl in our dept. had to call Facilities to trap one when she found lots of evidence of a big one rummaging through her desk drawers and elsewhere in her office. sick.gif

Pet and rodent - those two words never belong in the same sentence together!

Squirrels are real cute until they bite you or let one of their thousands of fleas bite you and you end up with bubonic plague. Never, ever let your kids play with the cute little squirrels. Trust me on this one. wink.gif

I have no idea what you are talking about DTP! I have always been afraid of rodents. And tiny spaces and clowns. All true!

Most definitely not!! Although Dumbo is a really cute elephant, and I loved his ride at Disneyland!! It always had the longest lines since it was so popular.
