Mice and rats... evil little critters that they are - hate them, alot. Disgusting little things with those horribly long worm-like tales. Plus with all that disease they carry, they're definately not the safest things in my book. Once when our house was infested with them I spent all night awake cos I thought I could hear them scratching behind the walls. In the end it turned out that it was just my fan whirring around. I lost a night of sleep because of my fan!!!!!!!!!

I read about a weird one on the Straight Dope message board today. This one guy said he can't touch the word 'bee'. As in, he can say it or type it but once it is on his screen he can't bring himself to lift his finger and touch the word cos in his mind it feels all furry and gross.

Does this guy also claim that he can see smells, hear colors and taste sounds? I laugh. That's the weirdest thing of which I've ever heard. |
Do you know there is scientific research into people who see music and emotions as colours? Its one of the theories why some people claim to see auras.

My Aunt "Claims" she can see aura's and ghosts. In fact my mother heard the ghost that my aunt claimed to see or at least footsteps in an empty house.

My irrational fear is f*cking fantastic. Because, in a couple of weeks, if not f*cking days, it's going to come-the-f*ck-true. So...i need to vent.
So, i like this guy. Well, i say "like" i actually mean "love". And he doesn't know. Yeh? And this other guy likes the guy i'm in love with...and he's seeing him. And guess what little revelation came about tonight, children! The guy who's seeing the guy i love, actually loves him too!! See...this is SO annoying! Like, beyond annoying. PAINFULLY ANNOYING! Because the following is going to happen - They're going to end up loving each other and staying together for-f*cking-EVER! Which, by the by, is also my irrational fear. I fear that they will be together forever. And they will f*cking love each other. And they will begin going out. And me? I will be left alone...crying...in the darkened room of the Asylum as my drugs begin to kick in. Well...maybe the last part isn't the fear...more of an exaggeration from a strained mind. But i'm definatly afraid that they'll start loving each other forever. Meh, maybe i deserve it. Probably do. Boooo to Karma! *Walks away, vaguely vented* |
Karma kicks ass!
Is this synesthesia of which you speak, N Dogg? I'm certainly familiar with it. But LSD has similar effects, hence my joke about the paranoid "can't touch the word 'bee'!" guy. One must admit, it's hilarious. I would say my girl falling in love with some other guy isn't so much an irrational fear as a practically given eventuality. Perhaps the chances of this would be diminished if she had any idea of how I feel about her. I'll never have a chance unless I actually take the chance, but I want it to be perfect. Somehow, "Hey, I like you and if you give me a couple months I'm going to get really cut and handsome and you'll find me attractive and maybe wish to go out with me then?" just doesn't sound right. My fear of rejection and the social conditioning that's practically a mandate if you're an American has created the irrational fear in my mind that the party in the second part won't see beyond my outer appearance. This, of course, is bullshit. She's the most intelligent, sweetest, nonnjudgmental person I've ever known, and if she rejected me it would not be because of my appearance. But one self-realized truth can't outweigh a decade and a half of less than subliminal suggestion, and, alas, I can't get past the shortcomings of my physical form. I hope Weight Training will help. Jacob, I feel your pain. Well not really. But I sympathize. |
oh... O have an irrational fear... Injuries... If someone show an injury he/she had just got, i begin to feel dizzy and wanna puke... I can't even talk about it... YUK!

My brother can't stand the sight of his own blood, which is logical I guess. Conversely, I don't mind my blood but hate seeing anyone elses.
