Top 5 Things That Scare the Bejesus Out of Me

Of course the usual 'scary things' scare me, like chainsaw-weilding loonies, but here are the 5 'weird' things that freak me out.

The Olson Twins. i'm convinced they're aliens, and not the fun 'Mork' type of aliens, the really evil, smart type that can control your mind. i think they might have been the inspiration for Signs.

Eels. i didn't realize this until we went to the Monterey Aquarium with the Rostens last year. When i saw the eels i felt an intense, physical sense of fear unlike anything else.

Paper cuts. My palms are sweating just thinking about them.

Moths. Disgusting, weird, furry-insects! But also SCARY. i blame Silence of the Lambs and the whole 'death's head moth in the throat' thing.

Cars with only one headlight. Okay, this one doesn't always scare me, but one time i saw such a vehicle and got a very strange, premonition-y feeling, and then it pulled up next me and there was a scary/gross man inside who kept staring at me, and ever since then i've been freaked by one-headlighters.
