I have a phobia of balloons (Globophobia), I just hate it when they pop because of the loud startling sound they make and their bulbous disgusting look, like a boil from some sort of strange plague and just about everything makes it look like they're just about to pop.
And while I'm not sure if this would count as a phobia but I am and have been since I was quite young quite afraid of Dogs, it made more sense for when I was younger since they're a common thing for people to have in their house and when I was a five year old 5 year old a full grown dog could've be about my size and if a full grown dog ever wanted to kill a 5 year old child, he probably could, and then there's their loud angry barking and the fact that they all have ancestors which were carnivorous pack hunters. And I have once been tackled by a dog, almost knocked down stairs by another dog and have heard a story from someone I know in which they were biking and during so were chased by an angry Dog.

aibohphobia: the fear of palindromes(words spelled the same forwards and backwards like radar, level, etc.)
I once dated a woman who was afraid of ketchup. Not like "Eww that stuff is gross, I don't want it on my sandwich.", but actually scared by it. It was a bit strange. I have no idea what the official name for that would be.
On a side note:
WTF?!! Still, better than some I've seen.

Have a tough time deciding between the fear of bathing Ablutophobia, and the fear of good news euphobia
I was totally about to ask if that existed.CardinalPiggles said:

I have erotophobia. Basically, the fear of anything sexual, including being in the situation, witnessing it, reading it, or even being told of it.
I have a fear of balloons. For some reason my mind cannot grasp that a popping balloon isn't going to hurt me.
It's funny right now because my friend just had me go into the depths of /b/, catch his thread before it was deleted, search it for pics he uploaded, then figure out the girl it was. I'd never looked at porn before, and it disgusted me, but I can't resist a challenge.warcraft4life said:
Well, I attach emotions to everything. So, casual sex would be impossible for me. But, if there was enough emotion behind it, I could handle it.warcraft4life said:
