hairy like a bear rug


One of my most vivid teenage memories is standing at Times Square and waiting for my cousin who's lined up to get tickets for Crazy For You and staring open-mouthed at a really hairy Middle-eastern guy who had even more hair coming out of the back of his t-shirt. That not being bad enough, the hair out of the back of his shirt was just about as thick as the hair on his head.

Oh, the horror!

This letter could've been from his kid, I thought, when I saw this on a forwarded e-mail.

Do I have chaetophobia? But I'm not afraid of body hair, really, just extremely freaked out when there's way too much of it on a person. Like, say, Alec Baldwin? Noooo...!!!

More on phobias over at The Phobia List. Lots of fun stuff to be found over there, you can find the proper phobia names for just about anything, even for the fear of vegetables (lachanophobia) and the fear of becoming your step-mother (novercaphobia).

hair isn't nice when it's not in the place that it has to be

add sweat to that... then you'll have something potencially poisonus(?) and biochemically dangerous stuff

did you ever take a look at hulk?
and the smell of a dog (sure you do, with that dinosaur-size dog ^^)

well... heck!


{this wrod vecritifaion thing is funny... funny like "please type shiet")

There are places that should have hair, places that shouldn't have it, and places where there should have just the right amount, if you'd ask me. :)

Yep, funny that word verification thingy. The other day it made me type something that looked curiously like walele. Not good! :D
