What are your phobias, hangups or quirks?

Was reading about this in another message board and it's amazing how some strange things people could be afraid of/unwilling to do.

 

Mine has to be getting blood taken. I don't mind shots as long as it is not in the middle of my arm, but every time they have to take blood, I hate they choose the vein RIGHT WHERE I BEND MY ARM. 

 

What about you? Any strange fears, phobias or quirks you have?

bees turn me into a fuging two-year-old

 

 

Same here.  I was at an Atlanta Braves game with my dad and brother when I was like 7-8.  My brother threw a grasshopper down the back of my shirt and told me it was a wasp.  You would have thought my clothes burst into flames with the running, screaming and pulling my clothes off all at the same time.

 

When I was around 18 I was on a golf course and took a swig of Mountain Dew and there was a yellow jacket in it.  It got half way down my throat and then stung me 2-3 times.  My brother (nice guy that he is) informed me my throat might swell up and then I would be unable to breathe.  Well that sent me into a panic and was rushed to the ER.  Doctor gave me some shots to prevent swelling and told me most likely I would have been OK without them but if I had a reaction to the sting I may have very well suffocated.

 

I haven't been stung since.  fug bees.

whenever I have to go take a crap at work, i go try and find an empty bathroom. If the first bathroom I go to has someone in it also taking a dump, I will keep moving on until i find one that is empty or go to the least populated one....

 

I guess that's kind of strange....I just like taking my crap's in peace

      If you could add one player from any team in the NFL to the 2025 Panthers to make them Super Bowl contenders, who would it be?

      Neither Barkley nor even a healthy CMC would move the needle much for us. Those are guys that impact teams that already have impressive overall offenses and defenses, so they can perform the complimentary roles that make them actually valuable. We should know that specifically because CMC almost never moved the needle on bad Panthers team after bad Panthers team. Ask Giants fans about that with Saquon.

      I would generally disagree. You see a lot more load management than previously but that is because being healthy in the playoffs is such a key factor. Different philosophies in that regard than previous generations.  Baseball really doesn't matter until at least halfway through the season. I am not gonna say they don't play hard but the physical demands are infinitesimal in the MLB in comparison to basically any other major pro sport.  People dislike all the shooting these days but that's a direct correlation with how much the overall skill level of the average NBA player has drastically risen over the past 15ish years. There are other aggravating factors, certainly, but that is the biggest one in terms of playing style differences. So many of the guys from the 80's and 90's wouldn't even be able to play in the modern NBA at all. The biggest problem the NBA has with the American market(they are the only US sport that has any real international appeal or interest, minus the NHL) is that they are so steadily corrupt and fix the systems against the small market teams. Well, you eventually lose a big chunk of the league viewership/potential viewership in the process. Take the very obviously fixed NBA draft lotteries. Superstar and upper tier star players rarely want to play for small market teams, nor can they usually afford to pay them. So how do you expect them to possibly compete in that environment?
