How do these affect your daily life? Do you not go to sporting events? What do you do on Halloween?

Mascots' Costumes?

So does this mean that normal costumes are fine, just the ones that are mascots?

I mean, I know the Phillie Phanatic is terrifying, but I'm pretty OK with most of the other mascots out there.

I have 3 fears ...

#1 - Heights. I cant even walk on the second level of the local mall without being as far away from the handrail as possible
#2 - Pregnant bellies. Just ugh ...
#3 - Cottage Cheese. That shit is disgusting. Whatever moron was starving enough to think "This gallon of milk is 2 years old and crunchy. Lets try to eat it." I cant imagine what it would take to actually do it.

If the cottage cheese you've eaten was crunchy...I think we've found the problem.

I just have the usual, Acrophobia - the fear of falling.  When you think about it, though I don't have a problem with the fall itself, so much as the sudden stop that comes at the end thereof.  I hate that.

Other than the standard stuff (falling, death, aging, your mom), I tend to have what is commonly (but not scientifically) called "Dumasaphobia"... Fear of stupid people.

I also have a fear of random double topics  (*cough http://vgcollect.com/forum/index.php/topic,896.0/topicseen.html cough*)

I don't really have any phobias. I have an issue when I'm around "special" people. I get really uncomfortable. It's not a fear, just a feeling of slight panic. I've been that way my whole life and have no idea why.

Must be why there are no mirrors in your house.
