I wouldn't ask anyone to divulge their greatest fears. Casual fears are certainly jarring enough to mention outright in a casual setting, so I suppose we can start (And presumably, end) there.
Well, I think at this point I have a fear of finding something other than food in my food. Over the course of my life, I've found ridiculous entities in otherwise unassuming foods. I've found a sheet metal screw in a muffin, a rubber band in a turkey sandwich, innumerable bones in every can of salmon (Sometimes tuna!) I've ever eaten from that others claim have no bones in it, and to top it all off, a chicken bone in my string cheese. I swear I don't know what the hell was up with that one. I couldn't eat casually for days.
I also have a fear of peoples' opinions and relationships of/with me changing when my social status changes. I have an actual, legitimate fear that if, say, I gain some sort of power over other people, (their words, not mine...) good friends will suddenly fear me or something. That scares me halfway to death. I know that rules are rules and good staff shouldn't make exceptions for their circle of friends, as do they I'm sure, but if I ever thought someone was afraid of me because they think I can suddenly ban them or because I have access to stuff they don't, that's just crushing. I tend to humble myself before my friends whenever I'm in a situation like that. "Let's work together to improve things" tends to be something I find myself saying a lot. Because it's true. We ought to.
'sup. Yours?
