As long as we’re talking about weird phobias, there’s one where you are afraid of getting chased by timber wolfs around a kitchen table whilst wearing socks on a freshly waxed flooring, so I guess the snake thing is kinda valid. (Imagine all of this happening while a duck watches)
I graduated with someone who had a fear of ducks. We found out after one approached his house. Apparently he threw a rock trying to scare it away but ended up killing it and wouldn’t leave his house until someone came and dragged it away.
Ducks are the Dolphins of local waterways and geese are vicious. I had one fake injury just to get humans close then it would attack them just fine walks away fine. I thought adrenaline dump until the year mark then I was like nah this lil fellas just a douche.
I mean, any irrational fear could develop into a phobia, and so long as it's been documented and given a latin name, it should stand. Though you ought to know that some of these phobias in existence are merely medical shit posts.
