Most of these are pretty rational except for maybe Hoos under the bed fear. For all I know he may have some freaky shit under that bed.
OK, here's an irrational fear. I used to be paranoid in HS that I had something stuck on my back and would reach around and feel just to make sure I didn't. What's weirder is that for some reason I was usually afraid that I had a maxi pad stuck there and I didn't even use maxi pads. Now that's irrational.

OK, I have this with subway trains. I'm afraid I'll jump in front for no reason. My friends and I named this fear of an uncontrollable destructive or ridiculous urge the Galfonic complex. See also being afraid you'll rip your clothes off and start screaming obscenities in church or somewhere else = inappropriate. Oh, just me?

dude i guarantee you i'm worse. one time i was playing basketball with a friend of mine and he told me i had a bee on my back, so i threw my shirt on the ground as fast as i could and ran. he was joking.also when i would come home from school circa middle school, if there was a bee in the house i would stay at a friend's house until my mom got home, and refuse to come home unless it was dead. i'm afraid of dead bees too.
