Is that the same as naughts and crosses? ‘Cos I never win at that! Pretty good at dots and dashes though, but i don’t think you can play that on the pc.
You are right though and I think it falls under your category of the unknown, nightmares are the unknown:you’re subconcious thinking ahead and culminating in all your fears.
I still wish you hadn’t told me about your dad and the screaming lobsters though.

Jordache, as a child I would see that regularly, the worse was when my father would throw them in the big lobster pots filled with boiling water, I swear they used to scream, I hated it.
Awwww…..poor lobsters. :(
I never understood why they had to be boiled alive….I would feel too guilty to eat it.
Yeah, let me know…there has to be a good reason for it I suppose.
I might learn something new lol. :D
I’m afraid of spiders although I tolerate them better since I saw the worst kinds ever in Thailand :shock: I’m also scared of heights, as in climbing up ladders, but planes dont bother me.
Going back to lobsters…. they make hat noise because of the air escaping the shell during cooking but I agree its awful
I have to say to me, crabs seem nothing more than a short step up from spiders….they give me the creeps :shock: @veronica wrote:

is in chef school :lol:
best way to cook em is, puttin them in a big pan of cold water an allow the water to heat up gradually, they just go to sleep an then die as u cook em, tis the same with crabs, an i think its the most humane way of doin itoh an im terrified of spiders, ive been known to pass out cos of the f uc kers :evil:
c”ckroaches and big nasty beasties …. they make me wanna cry lol….
oh & heights… can’t stand at edge if too high up
Tosh!
Leading chef Gordon Ramsey explains exactly how to kill live lobsters and how it makes him feel. “You always feel better after killing something. I do… stab the head off a lobster. You feel all the better for it… God knows how many I’ve killed… plunge them into boiling court bouillon, and their tails flip up and they scream and you can hear their claws scraping on the sides, and I got great pleasure out of that.” (The Independent Magazine, 12th October 2003).
The Shellfish Network say that when lobsters are placed into boiling water they ‘behave wildly, whipping their tails and trying to escape’. Death can take anything from 15 seconds up to 7 minutes.
It is a myth that lobsters gradually fall unconscious if the water is slowly brought to the boil. Lobsters who have not first been transported or confined will shake, tremble, struggle and flip violently as the temperature is increased.
You try sitting in a bath of water and gradually raise the temperature to boiling point and see if it is humane :lol:
I’m afraid of guns and traffic (mostly cars in dark).
When i was younger i used to be afraid of sleeping in the same room as somebody else. Strange, huh?
But now its all spiders and insects. I am also afraid of going places where I dont really know anybody.
As for weakness i don’t have any, or at least i don’t think i do.
