pregnancy
the most absolutely horrifying thing i could ever conceive of. Just terrifying. Pregnant women freak the living shit out of me. I just don't know how they can go happily about their lives when there's ANOTHER LIVING CREATURE GROWING INSIDE THEM

gaaaah

i don't think i ever got over the shock of finding out where babies come from.

I won't have sex, because as i understand it that's how the whole horrific process begins. (I did it once, 'cause i wanted to lose my virginity. We used a condom and he withdrew before anything could happen AND i still panicked and took the morning-after pill and spent the next day throwing up)

related: any organism that develops inside another as a parasite gives me the utter fear. Like that thing someone posted about the wasps that lay their thingies inside the spiders that make them knit weird webs. horrors, horrors

rooting
in class one day we were told by our RE teacher that terrible, despicable hellbound sorts often stashed porn in the woods...

i was so keen to find some that i started taking our next-door-neighbours' dogs out for walks, twice a day, before and after school, so that i had A) an excuse to investigate the woods and b) protection from ghosts/killers while i investigated the woods

these days, i sell R-18 movies and sex toys to pay the bills. If only my eleven-year-old self could see me.

i never did find any porn in the woods

» Thrown away: The stuff you loved and lost.

hurt
this is genuinely a really sore point for me. i used to have a huge collection of Buster comics: my first introduction to (very) mildly naughty content, comic strips and my first ever 2-D crush, Faceache...i was away for, like, a week one summer and when i came back my mum had binned the lot

i don't imagine they'd be worth a fortune but good grief i'd love to still have them.

also, about five years before THAT, she 'tidied' my room and threw out my pussy-willow collection. I cried so much i nearly made myself sick

» Sleepwalking

more piddles
when i was about 16 i was going out with my boss who was about 22 and still lived with his folks. Stayed over at his one night and couldn't sleep due to his snoring, so i snuck out of bed and into the guest room.
During the night i dreamed about a waterfall and woke up to find boss/boyfriend, fast asleep, peeing all over my feet. He then got onto the bed and curled up in the puddle he'd made.
i managed to get out from under him and went back to his room to sleep.
In the morning his mum found him lying in the piddly bed and went BALLISTIC
