Having a fear of watching new films/movies that you haven't seen before. Often feeling a sense of anxiety that watching a new movie may waste time as you may not enjoy it.
I can't watch that newmovie that's just been released Jeffrey, I have Nefilphobia.
The fear of skin moles. The medical term for a mole is a NEVUS; Nevi are the plural of nevus. It is different from "dermatosiophobia" which is the fear of contracting a skin disease. Neviphobia is the fear of looking at or touching moles on one's self or on others but does not include the fear that touching moles will cause them to spread (that would be included in dermatosiophobia). It can range from the mild opinion that moles are unattractive to the extreme inability to be near someone with visible moles.
1. Cindy Crawford would be pretty if only she didn't have that horrible mole on her lip.
2. Enrique Iglesias used to be a mole face but looks really hot now that he's had it removed. See also Enrique's Mole and Molebarrassed
3. We broke up because I have Neviphobia and every time we had sex I kept touching those big lumpy moles and even in the dark it gave me the heebies.
The fear of nasal irrigation, as practiced by jamming a diminutive watering can into one nostril, and angling the head to promote the flow of solution out of the fellow nostril. Blech.
Because I suffer from netiphobia, I will never again look at a teapot or watering can with affection.
Armed with the knowledge of my netiphobia, the villain tortured me with youtube videos of people using their neti pots.
A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing peecalculus.
