Phobia

Something I learned in Church today:

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia

Yes. That is just one word.

Does anybody know what it means?

It's the fear of LONG words.

No wonder people are afraid of long words. If someone told you this, wouldn't you be afraid of it?

It's a one word tongue twister. -__-"

Then, there's Caligynephobia: fear of beautiful women.

If you had that, you'd probably never watch TV. :/ Interesting, though.

Something I learned looking up random phobias: there's such a thing as fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth. But I gotta agree. Peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth is pretty annoying... >:|

But I'm Aichmophobic: fearful of needles and pointed objects. Not so much the fear of pointed objects... It's really just needles. I don't know why though. 

It's weird. It's very weird. 

And it's the reason why I can never be a doctor (sadly, that was one of my childhood dreams.)

Oh well~

Does anyone want to share their phobias? :)
