Anyway today's show is about phobias... scary! The first lady is deathly afraid of Styrofoam. Styrofoam! Severely afraid of Styrofoam. So they take her to a Styrofoam plant. Smart! Why not just throw her into a refrigerator box full of those little packaging peanuts?
Then I started to wonder about phobias. It's amazing what some people are afraid of. You can have a phobia of almost any ethnic group that exists(Anglophobia,Dutchphobia,Judeophobia,Russophobia,etc), you can have a phobia about long words (Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia), you be afraid of the Pope (Papaphobia), or maybe the color purple - not the movie, although I understand - (Porphyrophobia), and perhaps the most frightening of all a phobia of phobias (Phobophobia.)
Here's a few more fun ones... and if you're interested self-diagnose yourself here!
P.S. If you know anyone who suffers from a phobia I list please let me know. I'd love to torture them.
