I'm Where I'm At
I absolutely hate bugs with big butts. Spiders, potato bugs, caterpillar, anything that will ooze when squashed. I won't ever squish them because it disgusts me. When I pick them up with a napkin I'll just flush them without squishing

My stereo volume absolutely has to be set to a number multiple to five (0, 5, 10, 15, etc). I always check when I drive and I'll find it at some random number like 11 or 17 after my wife drives the car and have to change it. I'll check it even though I know I was the last person to drive the car. Come to think of it, I'm like that with the tv volume too

I won't sky dive or bungee jump or swim with sharks or try to feed a bear, things like that. My fear of something going wrong is greater than my need for a thrill

Speaking of sharks, I'm scared of swimming in the ocean. I've done it many many times but I'm always afraid a shark will attack me

Last two aren't really irrational but incidents are so rare I guess it can be seen as irrational
 
I think about sharks when I go snorkeling but it does not keep me out of the water......For as far back as I can recall,if I feel something brush against a part of my body while I am in bed and under covers,I sometimes jump thinking I am about to be bitten by a mouse.
 
I don't like roaches....they stink.
 
Not my fear, but my friend is 6'6" 280lbs and is terrified of moths haha. Never seen a big man move so fast.
