Being born on Halloween would be freaaakkkyy. I don't think I've met/know anyone that was born on Halloween.

Haha, i just found this...

EDIT: LMAO John, I just looked at your profile (sorry for profile stalking :p) and you're born on Halloween?!?!

According to the site...

If a child is born last day of October, he or she will be gifted with psychic powers, and be able to see, and converse with the spirits of the dead. Those born on Halloween has been said can never be harmed by evil ghosts.

Haha, I'm kidding!

Rule 34 is one of the few things sustaining my faith in humanity.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~


What scares me? Women.

Like, if I enter a situation with the mentality of a woman being a co-worker or customer or friend or stranger then who cares. But approaching a woman I have feelings for is the scariest thing I can think of. Anything to do with approaching or confronting a woman in relation to any form of relationship proposal or romance terrifies me to the point where I will literally hide from the person. Extreme anxiety would be an orgasmic relief from the way I feel when it comes to "making a move". I'm friendly and approachable, hell my profile pictures have my cute puppy in them, you would think I would be trying to chat up women all the time.

I have lived in the country and been chased by bears and wolves, and I can tell you, not as scary as women. I would gladly fist fight every zombie/ghost/clown/snake/creepy child/vampire before willingly approaching a woman. The thought of serving overseas with the Canadian Forces, getting captured, tortured and dying, -seriously- scares me less. Perhaps this will better illustrate my point:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Let x= level of romantic interest

and f(x)= (x)^(women)

then the Limit of f(x) as x goes to infinity = (scariest shit ever)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~


A woman who approaches me and makes the first move is my equivalent of finding a chocolate bar in the fridge you forgot about, best ...thing ...ever!

So sorry ladies, I am interested in your gender for companionship and mating purposes, but you scare the living shit out of me.



Although if you make the first step you automatically get like 10 extra awesome points, so ... tell your friends!

Trains.... yes..weird I know, but I get panic attacks when I'm near tracks, or have to stop and wait for a train... but I love riding on them... I'm just terrified I'm going to be hit by one...its really unnatural

Spiders...common one there

Losing the person I spend my life with ... I don't know how people get through that

getting old.... it's just so sad

walking up stairs when its dark behind you... when I was young I used to leave the light on when walking up the stairs from the basement, and use the one at the top of the stairs to turn it off.... or just run like hell up the stairs

What actually scares me the most is E.T. I watched that movie as a child and had nightmares about him for about a year.
I can't look at E.T anymore without shivering or running away... :/

That's what I do with most Youtube videos. I read the comments before watching the video to see if it's a screamer.
