Finally Something Thats Uglier Than You Are :)

FISH. ew. ew. ew. Personally they scare the sense out of me. Nothing frightens me more then almost stepping on a fresh dead fish at the beach.


The worst nightmare's I've had are ones where I have to tip toe throw millions of flopping and dead goldfish in my parents backyard, or the ones where the fish are in the tank and then all of a sudden they're swimming in the air and all I can do it blow on them to keep em away while I back out of the room!!!

The blob fish above don't scare me, I just thought they look fucked up, almost human like with there lazy noses and open eyes. I bet they had nasally voices and said: "I'm hungry and stupid" a lot of the time. Thats why they were caught after all.

Ole bluey to the left of me, SCARY! Hes just floating, eyes open, staring, not blinking, STARING, scaley waiting to brush against your leg when you've finally forgotten about the fish in the lake water.
He's scheming right now. waiting, watching.

ALthough this next fish is artificial, (believe it or not) it was created from the cast of a real one. Its ceramic and was made from another Etsy artist who's shop is made up entirely of different species of fish. PiscesCeramics is the name of this shop thats run by a man who's been fascinated with the underwater world since he was a child. (Complete opposites we are)

Fish are definitely scary, but my primary "not my species" fear belongs to bugs and spiders. *shudder*

Those noses are riots! I have never seen such things!! They're like mafioso fish.

I agree. Dead fish are pretty nasty. I had the worse incident of a pesticide guy coming to the house and I losing my most prized koi in my pond. The stench of rotting fish on a hot summer day. Is something that I will never forget.

Those fish are quite bizarre!
I added you to my blogroll.

That first pic is scary and extremely ugly. This might create a new phobia for me.

ick. dead fish look gross on the beach. or anywhere else other than the supermarket.

strangely, fish on the supermarket shelves look yummy enough. there must be something a little mixed up about me!
