Of all the things to be afraid of, now we have to find the right diagnosis for our fear! Oh the irony! (I know, not really, just feeling dramatic today.)
Some of my personal favorites:
Blennophobia - Fear of slime
Barophobia - Fear of gravity
Omphalophobia - Fear of belly buttons
Xenoglossophobia - Fear of foreign languages
Testophoia - Fear of taking tests
Rhabodophoia - Fear of being severely punished, of beaten by a rod, or of being severely criticize
Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia - Fear of long words
