Oh shit you get false awakening? I got that once and I had trouble sleeping for weeks, so freaking scary o.O

And you don't want to fall asleep because you're afraid you won't wake up? Yep, all living things fear their death, best to abandon that line of inquiry. :(

No, that's not it at all- I just can't sleep because then I can't stop thinking about it.

BUT THANK YOU, I HADN'T THOUGHT OF IT FROM THAT ANGLE.

Sekto Springs 08-24-2010 02:08 PM

I don't fear death as much as I fear I won't live a rich enough life before I die.
Every time I go to sleep, part of me thinks about how much time I'm wasting by sleeping. I think the average person spends about 25-30 years of their life sleeping. So in the sense of actually living and not just existing, we really only live for about 40-50 years.

People statıstıcally spend about 4 months on the toılet, 1 week changıng TV programs on the Remote Control, and eat 5 spıders when they sleep :P (whole lıfe), I have fear of Alıens, I dont really know how thıs began, but every tıme I go to the dark place, or go to the bed I ımagıne one standıng somwhere near. Even when I am tryıng to tell myself, that they doesnt exıst, my second half of braıns tells me ıf the space ıs ınfınıte, there has to be ınfınıte specıes of aliens, too. But speakıng of Infınıty, that means somwhere ın the space theres Oddworld floatıng steadıly :P

STM 08-25-2010 06:08 AM

Yes but dreams are fantastic, I like sleeping because of the dreams I might have, they say that your brain exercises a large part of its ability in sleep, it's how you can fly and become a commando and stuff.

There is not an infinite amount of mass in the universe.

lismati 08-25-2010 06:42 AM

Show me the end of the Unıverse :P (I thınk I know Josh's comment) but anyway, even ıf there's lımıted amount of mass ın the Space, I thınk theres small chance of Alıens not beıng somwhere. But who am I to judge ıt :P ? I'm just 13 years old kıd.

@Down: End of Unıverse is ’e’, doesn’t it?

PS God, ıt's so frustratıng, ıf you have to copy every ' or @ from Wikipedia.

I can't, it's moving away from us at slightly less than the speed of light.

That is an urban myth with no basis in fact.

Phantasos 08-25-2010 10:04 AM

-I fear jellyfish. Absolutely hate looking at them. I squirm and squeal.
-Haptephobia, the fear of being touched. I really can't stand people making contact with me. So, you know, relationships are kind of, impossible.
-Scopophobia, the fear of people looking at me or staring at me, even if its complimentarily..
-Telephonophobia, I can't stand taking calls or making them. It just seems wrong..

a phobia of buttons, even typing it is hard so please don't do anything stupid.

Don't you worry. I had a fear of buttons when I was a child, but somehow I got over it.

I used to fear Abe. Abe and Oddworld used to terrify me. Yet I'd sit there playing it nonetheless. Lorne Lanning, you mosnter. I've had countless nightmares about Abe, or running through RuptureFarms from sligs..
However, it was the film Signs, that realllly made me fear aliens. Its slightly annoying because I quite like walking at night in the moonlight, and nightswimming, but every now and again the thought of an alien standing somewhere gets to me.

lismati 08-25-2010 11:06 AM

I also hate JellyFıshes. Its not that I fear, but I kında panıc when I see one. When I was younger, I feared Oddworld a bıt too. Especıally Stockyards scared the sh*t out of me. Once on Halloween I played them on 12 PM, now I thınk I wıll never forget that :P

For me it wasn't so much the Stockyards (though they were scary because of the actual threats), but inside RuptureFarms in general, it was a fear of such living conditions and just sligs and glukkons in general. Freaked me out.

For some reason I remember playing Tekken Tag Tournament on some halloween way back. Not that that has anything to do with anything really. But that is my only remembrance of playing a game on halloween. Which I guess IS related to phobias, for halloween's meant to be scary or something..?
I guess True Ogre's a frightening fellow mind you.

lismati 08-25-2010 11:18 AM

Thats topıc for Phobıas, so I thınk I can ask a questıon about Phobophobıa (I duno how to spell that, I wıl check on Wıkıpedıa later). What ıs ıt? I mean you panıc when you see a name of Phobıa, you fear of havıng a Phobıa of some kınd? I dunno, and I thought about ıt from some tıme.

PS. You all see that ı wıthout dot over ıt?

Its more likely the latter.

And if that's the case, then it has to be a very natural thing; I expect the majority of us FEAR developing more fears of things, because they're so very spontaneous, and then of course, irritating to your general routine of things.

PS. Your ı is ıLL. Get it checked out.
