    For me its primates, monkeys apes etc. Where do I begin?

    All my life I have had an irrational fear, no actually an irrational deep seated hatred for these type of creatures.

    I cannot go to wildlife parks or the zoo because of it. I have tried to see their intelligence and I know they are the closest thing to humans in terms of DNA etc, but its no use, I just absolutely detest the very sight of them.

    I hate when people think its all cute to dress chimps up in human clothes.

    I think baby chimps are gross looking ugly things, sorry.

    I cant stand the orangey colour of some primates,that freaks me too.

    I hate the way they have their asses showing all the time.

    I hate rhesus monkeys with their long sharp teeth, It freaks me to think 1 chimp has the power of 6 men. I hate the constant noise they make,do they ever sleep?

    I have no grudging respect for these animals, its not like that, if there was a way I could remove them form the entire planet tomorrow then I would gladly do so.

    They throw their own **** at each other...and then eat it,sick.

    They are aggressive and violent to each other, I hate apes,gibbons, rhesus,chimps, orangatangs and any other monkey you could name.

    Dont get me wrong, I am animal lover, I have 2 dogs, I love cats, elephants, no problem with spiders even, or snakes,its just those dam monkeys, they really disturb me.

    Am I alone?Is there anyone else out there with the same irrational fear of a particular group of animals?

    Cockroaches!! F*ckin' hell! I doubt they're even from this planet!

    Also wasps - the insect version of kicking your little toe off a table/chair leg...whatever that means..

    That'd be us gone. Good for the planet, probably.

    Bugs.
    All bugs.
    I know they play their part in nature, but if there were some way to replace them, that'd be great.
    Mould too.

    Cockroaches by a mile. We're very lucky to not really have them in Ireland but I despise the fúckers. They terrify me!

    Wasps are a pain in the ass alright and im terrified of them but I could live with them. Its not like they're much of a problem here except for in July and August.

    All types of spiders..


    Especially the ones that are small enough to crawl inside your nose when you are asleep.


    Loadsa hairy legs + loads of creepy eyes = what the feck created them basterds!!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,537 ✭✭✭KKkitty


    Spiders. Creepy feckers. The fact they could be anywhere freaks me out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,538 ✭✭✭flutterflye


    Oh and yeah - I really don't like monkeys at all.
    They really freak me out.
    I hate bringing the kids to the zoo because they always insist on going right over to the monkeys.
    Gorillas are the worst though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 309 ✭✭keithb93


    Why would anyone wish for any species to be extinct? :confused:
    With the obvious exception of cats, they dont count. :p

    Grassy plains are just one big smorgasbord to goats. See how awesome they are? /ExtraSmug

    Those of you who wish cats extinct, does that include the whole cat family?
    I would hate lions/tigers etc... to be extinct.

    Midges, sons of Satan

    Bedbugs, I have an irrational fear of them, I always check mattresses when I check into hotels incase they'd have them. I discovered them once after booking into a hotel in Budapest and ever since I am paranoid of them.


  • Registered Users Posts: 813 ✭✭✭working fool


    Meercats , regular cats & people with more than two cat .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,375 ✭✭✭DoesNotCompute


    Big house spiders.
    Cockroaches - vile, filthy, disgusting, rotten dirty creatures. Can't stand them. The fact they'd survive a nuclear winter just creeps me out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,207 ✭✭✭maximoose


    Pandas.

    All this effort to try and keep them in existence, when they themselves do everything they can to avoid staying in existence. Lazy f*ckers.

    Let them die out I say.

    Lions & Tigers don't piss and **** in my garden or use my bonnet as a stretching tool and claw sharpening.
    So no.

    Actually Skangers. They're a kind of insect...I'd choose cockroaches over them.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,507 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    Slugs. Seriously what purpose do they serve?

    Very creepy that they somehow find a way into the conservatory during the bad weather.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10 BeatDGodM0D




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,484 ✭✭✭The Snipe


    None, consider the little bee, or a fly. If they were to all die off, I'd say we'd be dead a few years later. We live in a perfectly balanced ecosystem at the moment, and our generations wouldn't be able to adapt fast enough and evolve fast enough to actually get by.

    I agree with everything here, they are horrible, disgusting, vile animals, they make me feel sick when I see them!

    I don't mind gorillas or orangutans, but chimps/baboons/any of those other ugly ****es are horrible animals. :(

    Beetles, spiders, ear wigs, daddy long legs, giant moths, butterflys. Anything that can fly or run at me with speed, luckily my dog and cat both protect me somewhat due to their love of catching the horrible yokes!
