I know what you did last summer, and frankly I am displeased.
My greatest fear is that one day the forums will go offline. I'd rather die than join the common filth you find on reddit.

This is deeper than having your forum shut down, having your sense of humour outlawed.
This is you staring directly into that gaping maw of historical irrelevance, and it swallows you, like it did everyone else.

Hello yes I heard there was a lovely trainwreck here and...

swallowed by historical irrelevance, meh, it's happened to a fuckload of other people for much worse reasons than just not being special. it's not like i gave a poo poo about being historically relevant before i was born and i drat sure don't plan on caring about it when i die

now being trapped in my own body by spinal/brain damage? that or alzheimer's or both would be pretty horrible

Gradually make more and more concessions to morality and then one day waking up and finding myself on the same level as say Trump or Putin.

Fortunately I'm not rich and poor people rarely get to fall that far.

This entire galaxy is irrelevant, and I like it that way.

I'm afraid of things like toxoplasmosis and their implications for my sense of my own identity.

If it's any comfort, some of the best days of my life have honestly been the day that inevitably comes few months after a divorce when you wake up one morning and instead of looking at the empty pillow beside you despondent that she's still not there, your mind suddenly realizes "Hey, waitaminuite...this is actually loving awesome."

Embrace that power. Jerk off in the sure and certain knowledge that someone WILL die because of it. Really makes you feel like Dr Doom.

Yeah, I'm okay with that part. It's the fear of being on the receiving end of butt scratch doom that keeps me up at night.

You seriously have issues.

Go catch more racoons in a net and step away from the computer.
Wave pools. I’ve told the story before but I nearly drowned in 6th grade while being in one.

Also dark bottom pools and the ocean. I don’t like not seeing what is beneath me.

Also clowns and airplanes.

Honestly I could go on for awhile.

Dying in a way where you know what's coming and you know you're not going to survive so you spent the last moments of your life absolutely terrified. Falling out of a 15th floor window or being hanged, for example.

You don't seem very capable of protecting yourself.
My deepest darkest fear was some one would find out I wanted to be female instead of male. I didn't know trans people existed for much of my life so I didn't have a word for it at first. I realized I needed to keep it a secret by the time I started school, and I succeeded at keeping it a secret until I was almost 30. I was so ashamed of it and so terrified of anyone finding out I avoided a few medical procedures because I was afraid I might say something if I was hosed up on anesthesia. I hoped I would take the secret to my grave.

What I didn't really expect about having my deepest fear become reality was the physiological response, even in the safest possible situation I could construct for myself. When I finally told some one for the fist time I felt emotionally somewhat numb but I was physically shaking to the point where my teeth were almost clattering. It was kind of like when you're deathly cold and just can't stop shivering.

I assumed I'd feel relief afterward, suddenly free of carrying the burden of fear or something but I didn't. The fear from a lifetime of hiding a secret doesn't go away in an instant, or at least it didn't for me. My brain spent decades wiring its self around that overwhelming fear, and it took a long time to fade away. For the most part life was exactly the same, only every so often I'd get a sense of unreality when I'd be reminded I told some one.
