    At the moment I'm scared if what mark I got for my viola assessment at school last year. I'm happy that is hasn't arrived yet. Must have gotten lost in the mail.

    I agree with you on the McDonald's. But what is "Susan Boyle?"

    I don't know who she is but I saw her on her album cover. I think she may be some sort of orge, she looks scary...

    I used to be scared of spiders but I've nearly got over it. Now I just trap them under a mug, slide some paper under and release them in the garden. I can even pick up the leggy daddy-long-legs type by hand.

    None of this was much help on a recent holiday in Rarotonga, where this little lovely decided my bedroom was her bedroom. She was the size of a saucer, including legs, and after my husband chucked her out of the window twice and she came back (lurking on my bed the second time) I had to trap her in a hat and take her for a 200m walk to make sure she didn't come back. Ugh.

    You must not speak her name! She is an evil far worse than Paul Potts!

    Looked it up on google images. Ogre definitely.



    But how is this meant to be the same person??????? Photoshop, plastic surgery or both? Still looks like an ogre anyway.

    I always had the fear of paralysis and especially Alzheimer, as it seems to be one of the ways to lose your life but maintain your existence (?).
    I'm afraid of intellectual cripple, and becoming mad. I sometimes fell like I'm going insane, with all those surreal vivid dreams that each feels like an exhausting trip. Haven't had a good sleep for over half a year, I sometimes feel like I shift between consciousness and unconsciousness.
    No one mentioned the fear of hearing loss. I guess Hilltroll mentions that to us everyday so it became so fundamental.

    ^^^Sometimes I look forward to the time I go insane.

    If I'm not insane already.

    The photo-shopping with regards to Susan Boyle is quite telling given the whole orgasmic hysteria over her initial success was in the audience's disbelief that someone ugly by their general standards could have anything to offer to them. Nevertheless, when being packaged, she was forced to fit the same mould as all the other females turned into devourable plastics.

    That's a little off topic though... but I am scared of bad photoshop jobs!

    My boyfriend handles them with ease but if he's not at home which isn't very often I use this...

    That is terrifying!

    I didn't notice the elbow spike at first and thought she was just illustrating your concept of "devourable plastics." And then I noticed it and I imagine my face looked something like the "eek" emoticon.
