xerophobia

1. A condition suffered by persons from Bedford when they leave their native swamplands. A fear of dryness, or aridity

2. The fear of being caught by one's boss whilst photocopying one's genitalia (that's 'tentacles' if you come from Bedford)
"I was really worried the other day, I was changing the paper tray on the photocopier, when my boss walked in and caught me bent over the machine. It must have looked very odd from where he was standing"
"yes that's a clear case of xerophobia you've got there...Lucky for you that your boss doesn't come from Bedford!"

Racist, homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic, xenophobic 

Common political buzzwords people use to describe those that they hate.
If you think those aren't the correct words to my sentence then you're racist, homophobic, transphobic, misogynistic, xenophobic, and antisemitic, and you have no place in the world other than the fact that you should unironically kill yourself.

Xenuphobia 

A condition generally associated with celebrities and the ridiculously wealthy.

Not to be confused with xenOphobia (a fear of things which are strange or foreign, or the fear of aliens), XenUphobia is a fear one PARTICULAR alien, by the name of Xenu.

Altough Xenuphobia is often believed to be caused by a severe lack of common sense combined with mild to severe insanity, it is actually caused by belief in Scientology, a religion created by L. Ron Hubbard, who must therefore be considered the most clever man of the 20th Century.

Persons suffering from Xenuphobia are more commonly referred to as Scientologists.
Tom Cruise has the most serious case of Xenuphobia I have seen in my entire career.

Xenuphobia kills both brain cells and bank accounts. Friends don't let friends become Scientologists.

Xenaphobia

The fear of being accosted by a large Amazon warrior-woman. Not to be confused with xenophobia, which is the fear that non-white people from a foreign country will waste use all the community resources before you get a chance to do so.
My xenaphobia kicked in when I attended the drag show and was accosted by a 6 foot tall woman dressed as 90s Madonna.
