Got any odd or somewhat ridiculous phobias?

On the other hand, I'm also terrified of birds (especially scavenger birds and chickens), or anything being close to my ears. That one came from when a young boy locked me in a chicken coop (I was about 6 at the time) with an angry rooster.

OH! One more, not really a phobia but still: arriving at a friend's house for a sleep over and worrying that the party's not today or it's not actually a sleep over and you'll be the only one with pyjamas and a sleeping roll.

I had a friend who was terrified of birds. When we went to the Philadelphia Zoo, she nearly ran screaming from a peacock that came up to us. She also refused to go into the tropical bird enclosure with us; rather, she stood outside and commented to me how creepy it was when they came down and started landing on my arm lol.

And that last one sounds a bit like me - I worry a lot about things for no reason. Growing up, I used to imagine totally illogical situations I might get into and then worry about them [like the incredibly unlikely possibility of there being a cobra hiding in the back of the car].
