Fear.

Okay so Limin has done a post on phobias before, but i feel compelled to do one now as well, partly because i'm studying for Psych and have to touch on phobias a little. And also because the ones that i'm posting are interesting [i'd say funny, but it really isn't funny for the person who has it].

Here they are :) [http://phobialist.com]

Arachibutyrophobia - Fear of peanut butter sticking to the roof of the mouth.
Asymmetriphobia - Fear of asymmetrical things.
Chrometophobia or Chrematophobia- Fear of money.
Euphobia - Fear of hearing good news.
Geliophobia - Fear of laughter.
Genuphobia - Fear of knees.
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia - Fear of long words. [my favourite irony]
Levophobia - Fear of things to the left side of the body.
Panophobia or Pantophobia - Fear of everything.

Ones i may have =/

Automatonophobia - Fear of ventriloquist's dummies, animatronic creatures, wax statues - anything that falsely represents a sentient being.
Katsaridaphobia - Fear of cockroaches.
Monophobia - Fear of solitude or being alone.

Oh by the way, in case you haven't noticed, one of my usernames is 'decidophobic' :) But not really la. Maybe last time. Lol.
