Phobic
Just between you and me -- I have a phobia. I have a phobia for the rubbing sound of metal against metal. Not that it affects my daily life, but the thought of the sound gives me the shivers. A knife and a metal plate would be a perfect combination. A Chinese cooking show on TV would be a disaster. Um, I like Chinese food, though.
How can you name this phobia?

I know how you feel. Personally I can't stand rough ceramics rubbing! Think pestle and mortar... And of course, the old black-board/fingernail one :)

Haha, Darren, yeah, the blackboard and fingernail one!
