Encounters, Phobias? ( The Strange, the Scary... the Wonderful )

[TeteoInan]

I saw the potential for opening this thread up, so I figured I'd go ahead and do so!

Got a Phobia of a Creepy Crawly, or Giant Man Eating RAWR Monster type thingy?
How about an Experience that stuck with you?

I wanna know!

Snakes though... ermm, i can look at them, but dont ask of me to touch any. Seriously.

I feel the same way about jellyfish & as far as I am concerned every single one could vanish & it would be a better world.

Im terrified of spiders but there's no real reason for, no encounter I can think of that triggered it-I just jump six feet in the air if I see one -I think it's because they are silent

Sorry, but the only thing that terrifies me are heights lol. Sad, but true.

Was in Mexico napping on the couch at my cousin's place, woke up because I felt something on my hand. When I looked down it was some spider with a bulbous abdomen. Freaked me out but it didn't bite me or anything.

Well, it doesn't have to be something that scares you V. 

I've had quite a few encounters with animals that I find amazing.

Ok this is an emcounter that some might find a little strange-I have 3 dogs 2 of them are rescues from the street-one of them (Little Sam) Ive raised since we found him abandoned as a pup will get in the shower with me-I had to start taking him in the bathroom with me when he was a puppy I was afraid my other dogs might hurt him and that's how it started

Butterflies are terrifying.

Butterflies are terrifying.

it was when he was a puppy but he did it just the other day and he's considerably bigger than a puppy haha at least I gave him a bath so he's clean for the moment                                                                                                                               about them is so bad?

I'm so cliche, I'm terrified of spiders oh and wasps. I was chased from my friends house to my house by a big swarm of them. Got indoors screaming and crying, when I calmed down we couted 32 stings from head to toe- literally -_-. I didn;t like wasps before the incident, I really didn't like them afterwards XD. I was about 10 when this happened ^_^;

[TeteoInan]

I'd be dead. I'm allergic... just one sting from one of those suckers had my back as big as my butt...
Damn, that sucks though.

Something my Mother did:
She saw a "Huge" ( small ) "Monster" ( normal ) of a Spider in her window.
So, after her initial screaming fit, she apparently ran to the bathroom, and grabbed a spray. Then cautiously went back to her bedroom and doused this Beast with... Chloraseptic throat spray.
Yep.
The Spider had a Sore Throat. 

[Bane Bloodfang]

Hahaha XD that'd be something I'd do as a kid XD.... well I bet that spider didn't have a sore throat for much longer :B

This past August I got stung by yellow jackets and while Im not "allergic" meaning I wont go into anaphylactic shock from them the venom set off a chain reaction where my immune system went crazy -I have SLE-and I almost died from dehydration-the doctors werent able to figure out why-just one of those things but Im still not 100% and I have marks still from the stings

Oh hon, you too? SLE is almost hereditary for the women in my family. They tested me for leukemia before they found it.

yes in mine too so far at least my daughter shows no signs of it but she's only 16 so we'll wait and see-sorry if Im off topic

[ViciouslyMe]

I've been stung by a swarm too, but I hold no grudge, I did kind of deserve it lol. I was a kid, so yeah, I got in to a lot of trouble.
