Those little teeth at the end of escalators that release the trollies on them.

I was always petrified of getting my shoe laces getting stuck in them. Even to this day I jump over them a little.

iirc at least one person has died from getting caught in escalator mechanisms, strangled by a scarf or something.

According to snopes (if you put any trust in them - though something like this is relatively politically neutral so it might be ok) some children have suffered foot injuries due to laces getting caught http://www.snopes.com/horrors/parental/escalator.asp Probably worth checking up on any sources they've cited, or do some research of your own to confirm it if it is a legitimate fear. Best to be informed about the facts.

Ear holes and how they invite insects to crawl inside of them.

I have considered getting like semi-porous metal screens surgically embedded in my ears to stop that from ever being a possibility... Yeah the thought bothers me a bit, I think if anything like that did happen I would have to completely shut down emotionally while its getting taken care of O.o

But then what about the teeny tiny insects that get caught in the wax, and build up on the inside of the screen? o_o

I read one of the increasing number of alternatives posted of that type of story.

Darkness, but only when i'm on the herb... My mind gets a tab bit too creative (paranoid?) when i'm baked.

Pores. Like the ones in your skin. I feel like this is probably a trypophobia thing. In fact I know it is, and I'm usually fine with it.. but as soon as i start staring at my pores or the hair growing from my skin and i get freaked out for no apparent reason.

I once had a dream that I had all these little holes in the palm of my hand, bigger than pores but they didn't hurt at all. My dreamself was partially freaked out by it and partially curious. Since then, images that people with trypophobia react to make me feel just a little bit uncomfortable.

I get that feel. I'm not heavily trypophobic, which isn't really a phobia but a repulsion. but i find myself fascinated by these things that repulse me. I need to keep looking and want to see more but at the same time they give me the willies like crazy!

I'd say your justified in that, though. People die every hour from driving and a lot of times it's because they get too comfortable. I drive for work and it helps to have a healthy bit of fear.

I'm about the same. I'll go out of my way and spend extra time just to use public transport instead of drive.

Swimming at night when you can't touch the bottom.

Reading creepypasta and your feet are poking out of the blankets.

Calling someone's all-in when you have just under the nuts (highest possible hand).

Deep horror environment games. I'm not talking about cheap scare games, I'm talking about games like Metro 2033 and Amnesia, Doom and such, where the whole environment scares the shoot out of you. I know they are just games, and I shouldn't be scared, but like hell I'm playing that at night with my headphones.
