My phobia isn't a severe as it could be, I'm lucky that way.

It doesn't bother me much to see other peoples belly buttons or if they touch them but I won't touch them and you better not try and touch mine.

Sweet!

Then I`ll continue and also take the mickey....

I just got back from a mega shopping complex where I conducted tests for research into this affliction.

97% of people also have the same affliction of not wanting their belly buttons touched,so Duzey your very much not alone.

To varying degree`s,here`s what I found.

Some swat at you,some swat and scream,some swat scream then run away,some punch.

3 people,2 women 1 man didn`t do anything other than give me their phone numbers

I also conducted the same test on the Missus the result was the same swatting motion,though she added something strange that no other person said "Oh stop it, I`ve got a headache"

Do you get headaches when someone tries to touch your belly button?

joking of coarse,poke poke.

I feel for you, Rune. I kinda like spiders (because they eat cockroaches...DIEEE).

Meh!

Spiders are not intimidating at all. I'm the official spider killer in the family! "DG, come over! There's a spider in the tub" How ridiculous!

I'm intimidated by frogs and oh yes, mice. We rent to 3 horses out back in the barn and the field mice get inside once in awhile. That's when i can be found on all fours on the couch until someone rescues ME. Their rent is going up, they're a bad credit risk, anyway.

I hate bugs. I hate all bugs, plain and simple! They are nasty, annoying, and just worthless IMO. I used to work at a campground and the team leader went into the water shed and told me she found a realy cool frog...she lied! She opens her hands and a GIANT MOTH FROM HELL fly at my face! I freaked out man, yelling and screaming and throwing my arms around like a mad man. Yup it only take a friggin moth to take down a 6' 3" 240 lbs man down!

Better pinch your nose because they like to fly up your nostrils.

(I think we're the only ones awake this early, Tet) :shk:

Anyway, i also dont like anythng buzzing around me.
