A great Dutch saying…”I’m scared of the ball”...like in school when you DON’T want someone larger and stronger than you to throw a ball hard at you…anyways…What scares you…?

I have a paranoid dilusional fear of run on sentances that keep going and going without stop, just a pause here and there or those annoying little… yeah, those things too beacuse they almost fool you into thinking that you’re at the end of a sentance but you’re really not and you have to keep reading in fear that the sentance will become too long without making its point and before you know it you reach the end of the sentance without a clue of what’s being said because you were to blinded by the fear of it running on and on without stop.

Ah, emulation, such a sincere form of flattery. You forgot to leave a preposition without an object at the end. That way, the sentence never actually ends even tho there’s a period. A dangling participle might work, too, but I don’t know what the heck that is. Speaking of prepositions:

Until by into after from
Across against with toward on
Among around along of to
Beside beyond below at through

Upon in for beneath between
outside inside without within
Up over under down about
since underneath except throughout

I remembered (!) the one in the sixth line, but this is a list of nearly all of the common prepositions in the English language made into a poem! Thank Mr. Gruetzmacher, 7th grade English. He had a lot of time on his hands, just like me! Now, a contest to find the one that is missing, he’s probably still alive…

Oh, did i mention that i’m afraid of prepositions. they’re Ok as long as they don’t have an object (to throw at me) Ok, I’ll try one… in the ashtray, damn, that thing almost winged me in the head, they are quick, settle down, “in”! now… at the farm. Can’t throw a farm, pretty sneaky of me. MANURE?, you bitches!

bees and I have this phobia that anyone I talk to could just be a figment of my imagination.

That’s what Scrooge thought of the ghost of Jacob Marley…a bad bit of ingested beef…

Okay, this topic deserves a BUMP, what really scares us? I’ll think about it for awhile, though…
