One thing?, Death for starters. More, I'm sure.
Spellcheck?
Sorry, couldn’t resist 🤓
Death.
To completely cease to exist doesn't sound like a real party to me.
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
High voltage wlectricity....
With just some thought, to be separated from The Lord Jesus Christ.
Being stuck here while wanting to be in another place.
Death, not a big deal really. At least I don't think it will be to me. Not ready yet at least in my mind. But it'll be a relief for sure at some point.
Fear. Not sure I really have much of any at this point, other than so wanting out of here and to Alaska and that Carolyn can come as soon as she can. Tired of local politics, folks that are to old for the job and need to move on, watching John q public constantly get screwed and lied to by folks that think they are dictators, when the taxpayers should be the real bosses but I digress..
Toads. I hate toads. Despise them.
Oh Chit. Hillary winning. LOL
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
There's not much I fear but this is definitely one.
Was just going to say, Hillary makes a comeback.
Was just going to say, Hillary makes a comeback.
You do realize you used "Hillary" and "come" in the same sentence......
Not pulling another elk tag!
I fear I do not think like this.
Apologies tendered.
Mayonnaise.
Not too big on heights either.
Heights. Barely can do a treestand. Also rats and other rodents. Yick.
Lightning when I am above timberline.
Loss of our Republic! memtb
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
This from a broader family that has experienced it far more than any should.
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
This..
Living without the hope of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
This.
I pray it never happens to anyone else here or elsewheres.
Drunk divers and spellcheck.
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
Yes sir. Mine are 1 and 4.
Never used to worry about much. Used to.
Mayonnaise.
Not too big on heights either.
Bingo !!
Orcas!
Those things are Evil..
Death of a child and becoming a medical burden on my family.
Spending the night on the ground in African lion country!
Death of kids-grandkids before me!
Another fratricidal civil war, but one with no "front lines"
Spending the night on the ground in African lion country!
Its funny you mention that. Of all the stories of lions in camp at night i dont ever remember reading of them tearing through a tent and getting someone, or even an early morning camp cook.
Another fratricidal civil war, but one with no "front lines"
That or nuclear war with Russia.
Loss of freedom, and loss of my kids and grandkid's freedom.
I don't consider myself a brave man but I can't think of anything I live in constant fear of. I worry a bit about outliving my money.
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
This.
I pray it never happens to anyone else here or elsewheres.
Trust me, it will. I have a daughter nearing 40. For the last 10-12 years it has been a constant battle with her and drug addiction. She has FIVE boy friends and all have died at the hands of overdose. We have pointed her to help. She has cleaned herself up only to give in again. I can't "make" her stay sober. So now, "I" have given up. I am just waiting for the inevitable. My wife is my rock. THIS THING I am waiting for is my biggest and only fear.
heights and losing one of my children/ grand child.
Cancer and a debilitating stroke.
Democrats, the class enemy of my family.
That, eventually, my patience with fkin idiots is going to run out and in going to go to jail for dealing with one.
One thing?, Death for starters. More, I'm sure.
I have mixed feelings on this. I used to fear death more than anything else. But, I have come to accept the fact that it's inevitable, and I hope that my acceptance of Christ and the life that I have led will take to a better place.
Clowns and prison sex.
In that order.
Death.
To completely cease to exist doesn't sound like a real party to me.
To die thinking there's nothing beyond and finding out you're wrong. Jesus can fix that.
Being old and alone, forgotten in some "nursing" home.
Worry is wasteful.
So I dont.
This post reminded me of this movie clip..
https://youtu.be/Kf5nWhOeV8k
I'm afraid my wife will yip if I get another Wyoming pronghorn tag. Never the less I have been accumulating enough freeze dried food for a week.

where's the "like" button?
With just some thought, to be separated from The Lord Jesus Christ.
My faith in Christ prevents me from fearing death. What I do fear is the loss of one of my children and selfishly, becoming impotent through disease or age.
Getting in a wreck severe enough to phugg me up severely, but not bad enough to kill me.
I fear for our country being overtaken by communists, anarchists, and Democrats and what that will mean for my children and grandchildren.
Having something bad happen to my wife.
A bit of healthy fear is what keeps us alive. Ever watch idiots pass on hills?
Spiders! [bleep]' hate 'em. Not a big fan of heights, either. [bleep] spiders.
First thought I had was my ex wife - divorced 13 years and still have nightmares. In all seriousness though, I'd have to say losing a grandchild would be my worst fear (I don't have kids of my own, or that would be it).
Losing my wife or 1 of my kids before my time comes.
One thing?, Death for starters. More, I'm sure.
I don't fear death, per se, but I do fear a long, painful death (e.g., cancer or multiple sclerosis).
Losing another child or losing a grand child.
Losing another child or losing a grand child.
Nothing worse than losing a child... I lost my only son in 2009. I still struggle at times.
Well. I am NOT scared of spiders, snakes, housecats, pitbulls, surgeries, flying, clowns. Hell i don't know.
How bout floorjacks? I don't trust them fuggers.
Incapacitated vs. just dying. Don’t relish anyone wiping either end for me.
Something bad happening to my kids
Democrats winning
Living to be 85-90 trapped in a shell.
Would rather be hit by lightning or a large truck.
Government. They can turn things into Hell on Earth for many generations.
Religious and political zealots (as if they are different things).
Ooohhh,,,,Leroy with the hard hitting commentary.
Personally, I dont like ladders or wasps.
Dont much like heights.
Other than the slow diseases and disability, the one thing I fear is my wife outliving me. She is at a stage where she could not be able to live alone and depends on me for a lot.
That we could all die at home in our sleep.
Or cities. Or crowds, or standing in line, or mountains, or corn fields.

Pretty good list. I could second all of those.
Being out in a far too big sea in a far too small boat.

Why you afraid of mountains and cornfields?

btdt...
There are many things to logically "respect" and be cautious of because of the harm they can do you. To me, "fear" is that step beyond logic, a visceral and uncontrollable reaction which is logically out of balance with the scale or probability of the thing triggering it.
One of the few things I truly fear is spiders. Oddly enough, one ran out onto my desk as I said that. Now the SOB is approximately 0.0001 inch thick, give or take. Another is drowning. Both are rooted in childhood trauma. Even though I can go back to a specific incident initiating each logically, I can't take the "zing" out of them.

RC, you need to watch that movie “The Ghost in the Darkness”
You suckers are afraid of Trump and the Truth, leroy. Either can destroy everything you stand for. Thats why the msm has gone hysterical over Trump/Putin.
Your leaders know Putin has the goods on you. Youre greatest fears have come true. He has given Trump the info from the DNC server. We have the server. Trump has been playing with Hillary and Zero as a cat does a mouse- before it kills it.
Thats why your hero is at home-in Kenya.

Not afraid of death, I figure I can't stop it and I won't know schitt about it after the fact...
Don't have any kids to lose.
I love snakes.
Hornets, wasps etc are definitely no bueno....
I don’t like heights either, worked on lots of skyscrapers, no walls, all our pipe is close to the outside of buildings or the elevator shafts. Always on ladders, scared me all the time. We landed our pipe and equipment on a platform held in place by screwjacks. I wouldn’t do that again.

Good call
I forgot about heights. You can’t fall off the ground..
Dont climb up on a steep pitch tin roof with leather soled Tony Lama boots.
That little escapade went a long ways to making me less happy about heights.
I am scared to death of time passing.
I am scared to death of time passing.
it fly's you wake up one day and your kids are grown.....
I am scared to death of time passing.
You're 35.
Time hasn't started passing for you yet. At my age you start measuring things in terms of decades instead of years. It really kicks into high gear about age 50. I've got a motorcycle out there I bought 10 years ago. It feels like I've had it a little while,...but not 10 damn years!
A decade at age 62 feels like 3 years did at age 35.
Come to think of it,....the only good thing about winter is it slows down the passing of time.
I need to start appreciating winter more.
Winter passes slow. Spring is a wink,....summer is a nap.
I'm always watching my back when coming out of the deer woods after dark.
Noises make the hair stand up on the back of my neck.
Come to think of it,....the only good thing about winter is it slows down the passing of time.
I need to start appreciating winter more.
Winter passes slow. Spring is a wink,....summer is a nap.
Man if I could take a nap and damn summer heat was gone..... I'd be happy. Might even not want to leave the state.
My biggest fear is Over-the-Hillary running and winning the Presidency in 2020.
I'm afraid of losing my paranoia, complacency kills. Oh, and prison and clown sex.

Summer heat bothers me too. But I refuse to complain about it. Winter in Kentucky is grey,...rain,..snow,..and the budget getting slapped with heating bills,...inactivity.
That's the worst part,...the inactivity.
I can wrap up enough to fight the cold,....but we had so much rain this past winter that going outside meant wading mud.
It's difficult to get enthused about doing outdoor activities when you've got to deal with ankle deep mud.

Being conscious during an operation and hearing the doctor arguing with a nurse about which one is the liver and whether they should take it out for blackmarket sale.
Hanging upside down by the foot in a primitive trap set by a cannibalistic African tribe and realizing the Spyderco I carry every day is in the shorts I wore yesterday.
One thing?, Death for starters. More, I'm sure.
I came to terms with death a long time ago but Incarceration would be a living death and THAT gives me the heebeegeebees....
Spiders and midgets, and not necessarily in that order. . .

Just want my kids to stay healthy and happy. The rest of life doesn't bother me much.
Bald puzzy.
It ain't never seemed right to me. I don't care if they've had a facelife and got wings hangin' off the bottom of their upper arms.
It they drop their britches and a bald puzzy pops out, I feel like I need to check their ID.
It spoils the moment.
Death of a child (regardless of age) before me.
There's not much I fear but this is definitely one.
Yeah or even worse seeing one of my children go through an excruciating illness that takes their life.

Snakes -

There's only four kinds of snake I am scared of - Big ones and Little ones, Live ones and Dead ones.

Not being there...…..that's my fear. Not being there when my family or friends need me...…..
Being rear-ended on the bike from some a-hole who can't leave their G!$@%!^$!@#ed 'smart phone' alone....
At the moment, the greatest fear I have is that all of the democrats that voted for Trump (Thank you!) are going to continue voting for Democrats other than POTUS. I'm old enough to not fear stuff that will kill me, but don't want to see the death of our republic.

I prefer mine with a crew cut. The ones that resemble a slab of shag carpet half way down the thigh ain't right. A small landing strip will work.
