    Oh psh, everybodies house is full of spiders and other friendlies. Also you can treat phobias unless they’re extremely severe.

    So yes, an arachnaphobe probably hasn’t worked with spiders :p

    I’m significantly afraid of heights, like woozy standing on a chair fear, hasn’t stopped me doing maintenance on a roof or riding all the horrifying giant drop rides/cross canyon flying foxes etc I come across. Fear doesn’t stop you doing stuff, you just have to do it scared.

    Sorry, i’m drunk there was a point in there though, that exposure makes it possible to do stuff like work on the roof. And if I was way a lineswoman I would probably no more be afraid of heights by necessity. Humans adapt, only terminally online weirdos think you’re stuck in the condition you’re currently in.

      And you know this is not a severe case because…?

      Note: I’m not disagreeing with you on a fundamental level, just in the form of the argument and assumptions required for it to work.

            that you were an enigma wrapped in a mystery? why on earth does this matter to you?

            If it’s so important to you that you’re no stranger to mess then send me a picture with your hands in someone’s abdominal cavity and be done with it. You don’t like body fluids on your face, woooh join the parade, you’re so special. There are billions of you, what does it matter?

              Also what’s your obsession with being filthy ?

              Do people who like dogs necessarily have to roll in the mud ? Does a moderately clean person who like licks even exist in your eyes ?

              But yes, good job you’re a big boy you can proudly show off his dirty greasy burly hands, I guess :D
