Raisins freak me out! They look like little dead bugs and they are even squishy inside like little dead bugs! Posted Image I know odd, but true!

What odd little things freak you out?

Mmmmmm....raisins are great! I love them on my salad, and especially love to eat chocolate covered raisins. Even if they do look like bugs! :teeth:


Fish eyes, eggs, and snails...now those freak me out! Cow tongue....blech!

cow tongue!!? :teeth: excellent random and great!

I also don't like my own blood. YOU? You could be spurting blood all over the place and no problem. I've got direct pressure, band aids and tourniquets ready! Slight paper cut on my own finger and it's:

The gigantic tarantula that decided to spend the night in one of my boots on a desert deployment...now that freaked me out. Especially the next morning as I groggily went to pull my boots on and, um...well, you get the picture of what happened next.

Ick.

Cheers!

Courage is not the absence of fear. Courage is what you do in spite of your fear.

Every man has fear. Any man who has no fear belongs in an institution. Or in Special Forces.

That's why you roll your socks and put them in the boots the night before, same for rolling your sleeping bag when your not in it!

We had been warned about big hairy spiders in the privy, checked everything and had a seat, finished my business and picked up the coffee can that kept the tp dry to find the spider on the toilet paper! :birthday:

By all that is wet, I do hereby swear, (politely), and attest, upon pain of never diving again, (real or imagined), that I understand and affirm, that I agree to the above.
