Isn’t that technically that you’re afraid of the dark?
Somehow both the most and least scary thing on the list…
I think it’s all but sharks but maybe also sharks
I guess sort of, but I think of it as being afraid of the darkness itself, or the things that might (or might not be) out there when it gets dark. Like they’re totally connected but still two separate fears, you know?
That’s just the dark with extra steps
Very fast steps
Eyyy (☞ﾟ∀ﾟ)☞
I…still cannot wrap my head around the fear of death. If you’re dead, that’s it, done, your warranty is void and all that. What to fear?
I fear consequences of my death - shit people close to me will be put through. But death itself? It’s like fearing time. Shit’s just there, always was, always will be, touches all of us and nobody can do shit bout it.
there’s a saying in spanish, it’s not the same to call the lion than seeing it coming.
I’ll believe a stage 4 cancer survivor if they say that they don’t fear death, the rest, no so much.
Fair…though funny you mention cancer. My partner went through that and brushed with death and she has pretty much the same approach as me.
Probably dying is a better thing to fear, as that could be painful or slow. Especially in old age.
“Alexa, all lights off.”
Now, talk to me about going up the stairs from the basement alone…
Everyone knows that’s how the evil clown, ghost, or whatever basement demon living in your house gets you…
Grabs your ankles ands pulls you right back down…
I don’t think serial killers are scarier than sharks. I can see myself surviving an encounter with a serial killer. I cannot see myself surviving an encounter with a goddamn shark.
Sure you can.
- Look under the water.
- oh shit a shark.
- shark don’t give a fuck bout no human, keeps on swimmin.
- you survived.
You could also survive a serial killer in a similar way.
“Here’s your latte, Sir.”
But also, you could take a small shark.
Death is only scary in hindsight, when it finally embraces you you wont want to cling on to whatever this is.
This is a spiritual interpretations and should be understood in an agnostic context.
I walk slowly to my room in the dark to assert dominance
Unironically this is what got me to stop being afraid of the dark when I was 11. I just hyped myself up real hard, hit the lights, and intentionally slow-walked back to bed. Show no weakness.
Lot of cowards in them “statistics.”
It looks like some PEZ dispensers (for reference).
