What are some of your fears?

Lightning.

Death is pretty much it.

Even if the soul is recycled or goes to heaven or whatever, I don’t think the me I recognize as my actual self will persist in any way. That’s a bummer.

Being locked up, either prison or insane asylum.
Going permanently crazy from drugs, mainly shrooms or acid.
debilitating stroke
loud neighbors with loud dogs
the face of Congresswoman Maxine Waters

Fear itself.

there's only one viable answer to this question, and i will challenge anyone to a death match in the thunderdome who doesn't agree ;-)

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone, there will be nothing.
Only I will remain."

Death and Taxes...

outliving my son

Random debris on the highway that you couldn't expect and can't avoid.

Snakes.
Spiders
Death
Debilitating disease.
Becoming a burden on a loved one.

Yes, while on a motorcycle.

Running out of money/economic collapse after retirement

Dementia

Waking up a Jets fan.

Getting a divorce from a first wife after a decade of marriage only to find out that she has won the state lottery a couple months later... true story.

Then after hitting that debris, getting pitched into the air and over the center median/barrier into oncoming 65mph traffic... another true story.

You don't want to visit Australia then

This is the best answer so far.

Are you guys posting things you actually fear? It seems more like a list of potential bad things that might happen in the future. Sure, bad things might happen, but I don't fear them.

I hope you're not calling us yellow, o brave stoic knight.

Maybe it's humility you're running from, warm in the arms of your self-regard.

I fear quicksand.

The quote about quicksand from the 2000 movie The Replacements is, "You're playing and you think everything is going fine. Then one thing goes wrong. And then another. And another. You try to fight back, but the harder you fight, the deeper you sink. Until you can't move... you can't breathe... because you're in over your head. Like quicksand".

Shane Falco says this line.

Explanation:

The quote is a metaphor that compares being in a bad situation to being in quicksand. The idea is that the harder you try to fight the situation, the worse it gets.

I am posting things that actually happened in my life.

I don't think I'll ever get the opportunity. If I do, I'm smuggling a kangaroo home! Lol

I think I innately fear crocodiles as I remember so many dreams when I was younger going through swamps and having these crocodiles come out of the swamps and try and eat me!

I wouldn't want them to become a pest in the US so only on those grounds would I object as otherwise we have so many of them you can have them!
