Malik Ambar Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Is the fear of being watched by a duck a real phobia ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protar Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 It keeps me up every night. You never know when the ducks might be watching. They're probably listening in on this conversation right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malik Ambar Posted May 24, 2015 Author Share Posted May 24, 2015 How did you become so paranoid then ? I mean being afraid that somewhere in the world a duck is watching you ? Were you attacked by ducks or something ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King in Black Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Forget them ducks. Check this out : the fear of long words is called Hippopotomonstrosesquipedaliophobia. Which bastard named this again ? What did he think, those who fear long words would find this funny ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lykos Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Well, everytime someone shouts - Duck! - and I turn around, I get hit in the face. I haven't developed a phobia yet, but I'm wary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elder Sister Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I had never heard of this fear before I read this thread. Now I'm wondering if there's something about ducks that I don't know that I SHOULD know. Are they dangerous in some way and I'm not aware?:O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lykos Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Swans are former ugly ducklings, which explains their nasty behaviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
protar Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I haven't had much experience with swans. Geese though. Geese are the worst. As a kid my parents would often take me and my siblings to the nearby pond to feed the ducks. But if the geese were about they'd swarm your car hissing at you, demanding you hand over your stale bread. Truly horrifying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The guy from the Vale Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Considering I know people afraid of buttons (not kidding!), Anatidaephobia makes perfect sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manhole Eunuchsbane Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 What to Say When the Ducks Show Up-by Steve Martin I, For one, am going to know what to say when the ducks show up. I've made a list of phrases, and although I don't know which one to use yet, they are all good enough in case they showed up tomorrow. Many people won't know what to say when the ducks show up, but I will. Maybe I'll say, "Oh ducks, oh ducks, oh ducks," or just "ducks, wonderful ducks!" I practice these sayings every day, and even though the ducks haven't come yet, when they do, I'll know what to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry of the Lawn Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 There are few fates worse than getting goosed. Of course you don't want to go off half-cocked or end up like a sitting duck. That's just fowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just fowl. You're the best, Larry! Although I always want to start by answering seriously.... And seriously speaking, I have no fear of ducks. But those geese. Geez almighty! Nasty fowl things! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lykos Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 I can preen myself on having been goosed. While having ones rump pinched is annoying,I can't blame anyone dabbling with such an irresistable drake. I see a trend here, poor geese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowleper Posted May 24, 2015 Share Posted May 24, 2015 Well, ducks do have a corkscrew penis. And if they rape a chicken it typically kills it.So as long as you are a hen that doesn't want to be raped to death by ducks, it seems rational enough to fear their lustful glances.
