The shock you feel when you mistakenly turn the shower temperature down, causing you to immediately whip the handle too far in the opposite direction, thus freezing you to a popsicle and then boiling you alive in the matter of a split second.

Anatidaephobia is defined as a pervasive, irrational fear that one is being watched by a duck. The anatidaephobic individual fears that no matter where they are or what they are doing, a duck watches.

Anatidaephobia is derived from the Greek word "anatidae", meaning ducks, geese or swans and "phobos" meaning fear.
