Your greatest fear?

Dregor Thule · Post by **Dregor Thule** » November 14, 2003, 6:32 pm

So, what's your greatest fear? Thought this might make an interesting topic. Mine is growing old alone. Absolutely terrifies me. Growing old comes in second I think.

being a scuba diver i have always had a strong respect for the deep ocean, my greatest physical fear would be drifting off alone on a bad current and dieing after several days seeing nothing but water, or any other shit that can go wrong in deep sea dives, etc

another great fear would be seeing my death ahead of me,
the worst way to die imho is to be executed knowing you only have so many days, hours, minutes, seconds to live

Waking up naked in a burning building with my testicals superglued to the floor and a straight razor in my hand.

Dying. The inevitable end.

Having just celebrated a birthday last month, I recently started thinking a lot about how old I'm getting and how old those I love are getting. Knowing that they will all die one day, that there will come a time when I will no longer be able to see them, hear them...knowing that I too will die... it absolutely terrifies me.

I can't imagine not having the people I love in my life. I don't know how I would begin to cope with losing them. I know it does no good worrying about things you simply -cannot- change, but it is a frightening thought for me nonetheless.

Runner-up: Crickets. I hate those little nasty fuckers.

Getting alzheimers. I could care less about my body but if I lose my mind, shoot me please. (can joke about it but having alzheimers is the scariest thing for me personally)

Dying like my dad and my aunt did; betrayed by their bodies.

those who know me well know that i'm absolutely terrified of spiders. scared shitless. I hate the fuckers. most of the time I go to bed at night and wonder if a spider will bite me or crawl in my nose or mouth when I'm sleeping.

On the other hand, another fear factor for me is my husband dying. I don't know what my life would be without him around and I'm terrified of the day that he dies.

Xunil!!!1!!1!1!

Cancerous braintumors, Skog.

Slowly losing your language, your cognition, your senses and any control over your body, with nothing you can do to stop it. I can't think of anything more terrible.

Ah, say no more. My mother-in-law has a bad brain tumor. She is slowly but surely going down hill. Its juet terrible to see, and I can only imagine what it must be like to die like that.

Seconded by being in a plane that is crashing.

Spiders.

Millions and thousands of spiders. Everywhere, just flooding down my street, covering houses, trees, cars people. Crawling all over me, getting under my clothes, in my mouth, my nose.

-begins to rock back and forth-

second: being on a plane, anytime, even if its got no wheels to take off with.

laneela · Post by **laneela** » November 15, 2003, 12:54 am

Rational fears:

Losing someone I love. I rather die myself than lose someone.

Flying in a plane - not necessarily flying since I'm ok in helicopters, it's the plane business that kills me.

Irrational fears:

when i was a little kid I saw the movie earnest does halloween and when that girl checked under her bed and found nothing then came up and the troll was behind her i freaked out. I was afraid to sleep on my side for years!

Siji · Post by **Siji** » November 15, 2003, 2:07 am

That's a hard one to answer..

Dying slowly (not years/months - but seconds, minutes, hour)
Drowning
Accidentally killing someone else
Accidentally maming someone else
Being forced to watch loved ones die
Becoming brain dead and forced to stay alive
Becoming mentally handicapped from a motorcycle accident

I used to be afraid of HIV and cancer having had family members die slowly from both.. but these days treatments are fairly good and you can live a long time with both. And I'd simply off myself before getting too horribly bad. However, becoming a vegetable scares me. I don't want Buck coming to Fuck me.

Truant · Post by **Truant** » November 15, 2003, 4:24 am

Thanks. I'll be taking my first plane ride sometime within the next few months, and I'm not looking forward to it at all.

As for other fears, I'd have to go with losing people I love.

Extreme heights, like the CN Tower.

And spiders. *shudder*

Spankes · Post by **Spankes** » November 15, 2003, 1:31 pm

My sister was born with a rare genetic and fatal (at the time at lease) anemia.

My fear is being a carrier and passing it on to my children.

I suppose I'll get tested for it before I have children as both my partner and I would both have to be carriers for our children to be in danger.

Damn, your a creative fuck. I'd prolly carve away at the flooring that my balls were glued to, the skin surrounding the area. Regardles, thats still something that will haunt my nightmares for a bit.

My fear: Dunno, prolly having something large shoved in my urethra. I ain't down with that shit.

There are 4 kinds of clowns: Pedophile Clowns, Psycho murderer clowns, and Raging alcoholic clowns, and then the very rare nice guy who just likes to make people happy. So in conclusion my worst fear is if I were taken by a psycho alcoholic clown who molested and tortured me and then killed me. Fucking clowns

I feel bad for clowns, so many people hate clowns with such passion, yet their entire life is devoted to bringing a smile to another's face. All they want is to paint a child's face to make them happy or make a balloon dog. If you think about it, a clown is REQUIRED to go to clown college and patent their face paint.

Its all because of movies like IT by Stephen King that ruined clowns... and for that they can remain bastards, but you gotta feel sorry for the clowns that give an honest and pure effort to make children smile for a donation of a dollar. People would sooner drive a hatchet into a clown's skull than give him or her a chance... Ever notice how people have sympathy for other people in every case BUT clowns? They're like not human or something in most people's mindsets.

On that note:

doctors/hospitals/dentists

anywhere thats that clean/smells like that

flying, altho i dont really worry about that one much since i never really fly anywhere

guns

any shape, type, use
(almost squirted a few times during bowling for columbine!)

and then obvious shit like death, dying alone, loved ones dying etc...

emmer · Post by **emmer** » November 17, 2003, 4:40 am

never finishing college and/or having to struggle through life

knocking a girl up who I don't want to spend the rest of my life with

settling or taking the easy path through life; never realizing potential

I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing that most of my greatest fears are entirely within my own control
