Nerd Word of the Day: Anatidaephobia

Anatidaephobia: (n) The fear that you are being watched by a duck. From the Greek word “anatidae”, meaning ducks, geese or swans and “phobos” meaning fear.

What a strange phobia, seriously!  But that reminds me of something that just happened to me.

I was standing by my bed, petrified, due to my clinophobia* when suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I thought I saw something move! Or was it just my katsaridaphobia* acting up? I mean, I’m isolophobic*, but I’m destined to be alone especially after that disastrous dinner date last week, I’m sure!

My date was just trying to start a conversation when we sat down, but the moment his mouth opened, I screamed at the top of my lungs!  I hadn’t told him about my deipnophobia*!  Before that date, I was stranded in my own little apartment due to my bathmophobia* and my otisphobia* (I made that one up) but my date helped me leave.  But now I’m back and I can’t even order Chinese food for delivery since my consecotaleophobia* won’t let me! But, all of that is beside the point… I’m sure there is a man out there somewhere who will save me some day, just as long as he’s fine with my genophobia* and my anatidaephobia.

Speaking of phobias, I was going to compile a …. oh.. I can’t say it.. my pinaciphobia* won’t let me… just click here, darn it!
