Do you have a phobia?

I have a crazy, extreme fear of heights. Acrophobia.

Snakes that are within striking distance. I can watch them if they're slithering away or being securely held or behind glass but I got bitten once, so I hate them.

I also hate lightning because I got hit by lightning the same summer.

Poisonous snakes!!! I did trail hiking all winter but now that they’re out there slithering around…NO.

People are always like, just stay away from them. But what if I come up behind one unexpectedly- I don’t see it until the last minute and then it strikes me? In the middle of nowhere with only SOS phone service?

Nooooooo

Wow! That’s wild! That’s pure bad luck right there. That summer was not on your side.

Yeah-about the lightning, I was struck while sitting in my car. People will say you can't get hit while in a car but we found that there's a type of lightning called ball lightning that can go through glass, and did it ever. I heard this crash and there was a flash of bluish silver in the car.

What a 16th summer that was.

What’s that like being struck by lightning? I’m just curious to know what it feels like.

All I remember is the flash of bluish silver and a huge slam against the back of my seat, which threw me forward. If I got an electrical charge, I can't remember it, although the cop told me that the rubber tires might have blocked that. He must've seen it before.

Lmao! Have you been bitten or stung in the past or something? You have entomophobia according to google. What happened with the tick situation? How’d you know it was a tick back there if you couldn’t see it? What about harmless insects like a grasshopper or cricket? You scared of those too? Lol
That’s interesting then. I’m saying that because when I was a center manager in an actual store of ours, one of my customers wanted me to make copies of original pictures of his surgery scar from a lightening strike. Like you, he said he didn’t remember being struck either. He said he just remembered walking across a field, and then waking up in a hospital bed. In the pictures, where it struck him was a small wound, but on the opposite side of that wound, it was a large wound as if it went through him and out the other side. He had multiple surgeries and “graphs” done. That’s insane.

HEIGHTS and SNAKES—period. I could never live above the 6th or 7th floor in high-rise. And snakes—just NO! I’ve tried; I even touched a huge boa once, but I had to grit my teeth doing it. The way they move…just freaks me out!

Ewww, they move like skinks--which I also hate. Nasty pendejos.

You know...that ball lightning came through the back windshield making a small hole and blasted big time through the front windshield. When it was over, I looked around at the back and lines were running out from the small hole. Then the whole back windshield fell in.

Driving in a parking garage.

Bridges — especially when I’m stopped in traffic on one. Sometimes I can feel them shudder or vibrate a little. That’s very creepy, to me.

Preach! That sounds about right with me too. Once I get to a certain height on a high-rise, it’s a wrap for me.
Lmfao!

Dude! Fuuuuuuuck that @ your wife’s giant scorpion. I feel you there. Hayle to the naw. I hope she doesn’t pick that thing up like that.
Wow! Your description and my customer’s are exact. I don’t know how true it is, but based on my conversation with him, he’s read that lightening strikes can depend on a person’s chemical makeup too. I’m not sure if that’s based on factual information though.
