    What! Brie cheese. you’re insane, but I may have already guessed that one…

  2. meg Says:

    Hmm… something that comes in a semi-rubbery shell with a creamy, smelly inside. To me, that sounds like a recipe for disaster.

    Any offspring of Donald is plain scary, though I liked him in the first season of 24. Then you combine 3 & 11 and you’ve got me - a spider that you can hear walk across your carpet. It’s real. I’ve seen it. Be afraid.

    Keifer Sutherland? Really? Hmm. Interesting. I’ll have to look a little closer to see
    what’s so scary.

  5. Raul Says:

    1. Facebook
    2. The possibility of Facebook stalking.
    3. Having friends of mine deny me on Facebook.
    4. All the while, I have to admit - I don’t have Facebook. Scary huh?

    I tend to be fairly fearless, in general. I get afraid of crossing national borders, and policemen yelling.

    Wasn’t 14 already included in 3? And I see you didn’t mention butterflies…

  7. meg Says:

    Well, I can only mention so many things in a list of twenty. I didn’t even get to Ron Jeremy or “spicy” sushi.

  8. Belinda Says:

    Yeah, I was with you except for the brie. That’s just nuts.

  9. stacy Says:

    I have to agree with comment 1 on the Brie cheese…oh, Brie with homemade cranberry chutney…mmmmmMM!

  10. Roshan Says:

    Religion scares me.

    Keifer scares you!! I can understand some in your list but Keifer? And what do you have against Oprah?

  11. Bozoette Mary Says:

    I’m glad that Myspace beat out clowns!

  12. Duane Storey Says:

    Oh no! I love Kiefer. Although he shouldn’t drink and drive :( I tell you, if I ever get lost, I’m gonna ask that Jack Bauer come and find me.

  13. gusgreeper Says:

    i must ask Kiefer Sutherland in general or Kiefer Sutherland as Jack Bauer? or Kiefer Sutherland in Flatliners.

  14. meg Says:

    Kiefer in LOST BOYS. AAAAA!

  15. gusgreeper Says:

    AHHHAHAAH we just watched that… i love that movie he kills me in that EVERY TIME!!

    Until recently, my brother lived in a small town in Brie. When he remarried a few years ago, I went over there. I recall standing in the mayor’s office while he read a proclamation, presumably having something to do with his authority, when I noticed through a window that there were cows in the pasture outside. I thought to myself, “those are very important cows: they make Brie.” They didn’t look scary at all.

    (By the way, they may all be called Brie, but they’re different in every town. And, in light of comment #2, I bet you’re really frightened by Camembert. Or Morbier! Yeah, Morbier: that’ll finish you for sure. Vive la France!)

    But otherwise, your list is just brimming with things that are wrong, several of which should be hunted for sport and killed.
