Me and my aunt talked for hours about david sedaris and how she didn't want to go see him because she'd have to fight every gay person in san francisco to get a parking space

Sedatephobia

However, to some people, silence can be downright scary. ... There is term for this phobia: Sedatephobia. The word originates from Greek 'Sedate' meaning 'silent or sleeping or dead' and Phobos meaning the Greek God of fear, or dread or aversion.

Like all other specific phobias, the fear of silence is usually caused by a traumatic or negative episode in the phobic’s life. Some phobics, for example might have been locked up or abused by an adult,(some having been kept in basements or closets for punishment where no outside sound reaches them). The feelings the child has experienced then can get permanently etched on his/her mind. News of a loved one’s death or other traumatic/negative episode associated with silence can also bring on this phobia.

Excessive noise can be debilitating and can bring on headaches. However, it is silence that can cause various symptoms in a Sedatephobe. Power cuts can be especially trying to such people, since they are left without technology, noise, music or movies around to comfort them. When left in silence, the phobic might have a full blown panic attack which may be characterized by following symptoms:

- Shivering, shaking, trembling
- Having dry mouth and sweaty palms
- Inability to speak or express themselves: feeling detached from reality and having thoughts of death or dying
- Feeling numb, feeling like crying or fleeing
- Experiencing rapid heartbeat, nausea, gastrointestinal distress etc

I am very terrified of tests because of my Sedatephobia.

Steady Aim

A Tier 3 Perk in Call of Duty 4 and World at War which makes both your primary weapon's and secondary weapon/side arm's accuracy from the hip (no sight) MUCH improved. It is a big boost, since even the M14, which is notorious for having a lot of recoil from the hip is almost as accurate as when aimed from the sights.

The M14 was a nightmare to use when in a quick reaction because I didn't use the sights and it recoiled like crazy. Then I put Steady Aim on and I don't need the sights anywhere near as much!
