Thursday Thirteen #6

2. Genuphobia: Fear of knees--while dancing? Yikes!
3. Lachanophobia: Fear of vegetables--everyone's kids claim to have this, don't they?
4. Mageirocophobia: Fear of cooking--could I feign this when I just don't feel like it?!
5. Pluviophobia: Fear of rain, or being rained on--sufferers of this should not move to Seattle!

9. Alektorophobia: Fear of chickens--step away from the bucket, step away from the bucket!
10. Vestiphobia: Fear of clothing--one look in my closet confirms a mis- diagnosis here!
11. Testophobia: Fear of taking tests--a) doesn't that sound like a made up one, and b) don't we all have that, to some extent?
12. Coulrophobia: Fear of clowns--more commonly known as: RonaldMcDonaldBozophobia
13. Suriphobia: Fear of mice, or Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes's daughter!

When he was a toddler, my son suffered from 12. We discovered it at a parade and while he was seated atop his Dad's shoulders. The kid took one look at those clowns marching down the street and suddenly attempted to rip his poor Dad's head off.
And number 13, well, you're just wrong for that (LOL)!
This is a very interesting list! =)
Anyway, do visit my own version of T13 here at Dear Me. =)
