This might not be weird to you guys, but to my IRL friends it is. Regular white cow milk freaks me the hell out. I've been using soy since before I even went vegetarian. I just.. I can't handle it.

our class had a tour of a dairy farm, and we saw the milking parlor, which was really... weird. cement on every surface, faint smell of bleach, tubes coming out everywhere, and milk being pumped into a little cistern with a clear window just below the cow. It was like, wow, that's not food.

Hey!!  I'm going on a cruise there in April..... and Ocho Rios! :)

5. I have a thing about driving behind someone who has boards or pipes sticking out of the back of their truck bed.....it freaks me out.  I always think they're going to come loose and fly through my windshield and skewer me in the noodle.

Agreed. I also refuse to drive behind a motorcycle, too. If I accidentally rear end a car, then oops, my bad. If I rear end a motorcycle, I'll probably kill them. My boyfriend was hit on his motorcycle by a motorist, and it's been a rough time to deal with. I will never ever to that to someone else's life.

I feel the same way VR.  Motorcycles on the highway make me really nervous.  Even if you're wearing lots of protective equipment, you're still so exposed.  On a side note, last week one of my yoga community members was hit by a car while on his motorcycle.  They thought he was going to recover, but he didn't make it.  I know people love motorcycles, but they make me really nervous.  I can't imagine if I hit someone.

I'm frightened of and grossed-out by clumps of hair. This could be hair from a drain or hair underneath my couch as I'm cleaning. It could even be a hairball from a cat. My high school crush used to pull out all the hair from her hairbrush and put it in my face. Don't even get me started on balls of pubic hair. *shivers*

I thought I had a list of phobias but I think I'm just a fucking weird-ass eccentric guy. I definitely march to the beat of my own drum.

my god, I'm so sorry I didn't see this earlier. I'm really sorry for your loss. This is so scary. I can't remember where I've said it, but my boyfriend was hit by a car on his motorcycle last May and he almost lost his foot. He is still struggling to recover. But you know what? I'm glad it happened, because he didn't buy a new motorcycle with the insurance money. He says he's done. I couldn't be more relieved. Motorcyclists are not bad drivers, but they are at risk because other motorists don't know how to drive around motorcycles. I just refuse to put my life in someone else's hands like motorcyclists do everyday. I'm so sorry to hear about your friend.

I get around on a scooter with the speed capability to drive on the highway, but I refuse to do it. I'm so light that I literally can get blown from one lane to another when a semi drives by.

I'll be the first to acknowledge that driving any two-wheeled vehicle puts you at much greater risk than other vehicles. At the same time, though, millions of people die in car wrecks every year and people hardly think twice about their drive to work in the morning. Most two-wheelers are much more kind to the environment than their gas-guzzling counterparts, and in some ways you could say they prevent deaths in the long run (the toxins we pump out of our cars are likely related to the recent increase asthma attacks, lung cancer, etc). By virtue of being social animals we are constantly putting our lives in the hands of others. Some activities the danger is just a little bit more apparent. 

That said.. it's good to hear that at least some of the drivers are conscious of the risk two-wheelers face on the roads! I HATE IT when cars tailgate me on my scooter. I wish I was sharing the roads with more people like you on my drive. There are many of precautions I can take as a rider, but when it comes down to it my life is very much in the hands of others.

I completely agree with this, however, it appears as though most motorcycle wrecks end in death than car wrecks. If my boyfriend had been in his car and got broadsided by another car, he would've had a dented door and a functional foot. At his old workplace he saw a motorcyclist hit a semi and the guy was decapitated and killed...if he had been in a car he would've probably had a nasty concussion and some broken bones. Cars have crumbled zones to protect the passengers--motorcycles do not. I'm sure the percentage of death in 2-wheeled incidents is much higher than in 4.

Please, I'm not defending gas guzzling and consumption. I drive a 14 year old car that gets 30 miles to the gallon, and I don't foresee getting a new one any time soon (even though it breaks down constantly!). I'd sooner shoot myself in the foot than drive an SUV.  But, I just don't think I'd ever drive a motorcycle because of all we've been through with the wreck. I see how stupid people drive in their 9 passenger vehicles with one person at the wheel, talking on a cell phone and putting on make-up or texting. There's no way I'm going to let them run me over on a motorcycle.

Please be safe on your 2 wheels!!!

Phone spiders. You know, the little ones that hide in the voice box and crawl out when you are on the phone and get lost inside your head.

Ok not really, but I have a hard time sometimes to fight the subconscious  urge to wipe off my ears when I am working the phones and someone is obviously sick and coughing into the phone - especially when I am wearing a headset and my head is filled with the sound of germs being spewed into my ears.

It's official, E. I hate you.
Ok not really, but I could have lived without this image for the rest of my life.

if it makes you feel any better, I think that the holes in the phone would be a more likely environment for roaches or silverfish. What with the skin oils all over the phone and everything.

:D
