Tears for Fears

A hip band from the 80s. Featuring Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal. Responsible for hits such as the notorious "Mad World" which was unfortunately covered by Gary Jules. Also responsible for "Shout" and many other songs you'd only recognize if they were played right in front of you.
Yo, dude, did you know that the original "Mad World" was by Tears For Fears??? Roland Orzabal's dance moves in that music video haunts me.

Daily Fear

Also known as the Daily Mail. This UK tabloid is well known for looking on everything in the most negative way possible, usually working towards articles that will convince their reader that their non-white postman wants to rape you, the milk that he delivers will give you cancer, the book you're reading at the breakfast table is designed to brainwash you and your video games and films are basically Satanic.

Oh and if you can stop worrying about that. You're guaranteed to get blown up by your neighbours while asteroids fall out the skies onto your dogs head.
Person 1: "Wow, I'm never going to a chinese ever again. The Daily Mail said that they put poison in every meal"

Person 2: "I see the Daily Fear strikes again."

...

Adult: "I'm taking your videogames away from you. They'll turn you into a rapist"

Child: "Cheers Daily Fear!"

...

Person 1: "If we don't vote to get rid of all the foreigners soon we're going to become a muslim country where white people will be put to death in the town centres"

Person 2: "You've been reading the Daily Fear haven't you?"

Getting the fear

Flower child slang for having a bad trip,also used as slang by Charles Manson to describe the feeling of developing acute senses from being raised in institutions and being incarcerated most of his life.

Charles Manson - "The coyote is beautiful.He moves through the desert delicately,aware of everything,looking around.He hears every sound,smells every smell,sees everything that moves.He's in a state of total paranoia,and total paranoia is total awareness.
1st example - "Fuck! I shouldn't have eaten that 5th hit of windowpane,I'm getting the fear!"

2nd exampe - "Instead of getting the fear like the man wants you to,you turn the motherfucking shit around to the extent of making them feel like the having their fucking balls in a goddamned vice."
