Robots. Too much 50s sci fi as a kid I guess.
And not just the mechanical kind either. The liberal political automatons are really scary.

I'm not a shrink, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night.
Maybe the clown thing has something to do with Pogo the Clown... better known as John Wayne Gacy?

Did you ever wonder why there aren't any clown gun ranges?

I am another with Hickock syndrome. I don't sit with my back to any door when I'm in public.
My wife knows this and automatically sits so as to allow me to keep my back to the wall.
She says it ain't fair. She's got a gun and can cover me, but it just ain't the same.

Running out of beer, a chocolate shortage, no viniger at the fish 'n chip place, the "health police" outlawing real butter, something killing all the mold spores that create blue cheese, looking in the freezer and finding out my wife has eaten the LAST Eskimo pie at 2AM.
My life is filled with fears.

These are not the "fears" postulated in the OP, which are inherently irrational --- you've only described legitimate "concerns" shared by many of us who are perfectly lucid and rational, and who, like you, are genuinely apprehensive about shortages of necessities, the welfare of blue cheese mold spores (life, as we know it, would just not be the same without blue cheese, as many of us surely agree...), and these "health police" of whom you speak who would ban butter (and you know the rotten SOBs would, given any chance...) and who must be resisted at any cost. Also, if I were you, I'd keep an eye on that wife of yours --- sneaking the last Eskimo Pie (if she actually did it, or were to do it...) would be an indicator of egregious moral turpitude, and may lead to other troubles.
I'm pullin' for ya. We're all in this together....

I don't know if it's a fear, but I refuse to learn control theory and Z-transforms.
All of my other fears are rational and normal.

I gots to know, what happened to the hoodlum?I really do have one thing that does bother me...
And that is of being cut with a knife.
Sure, I use knives every day- but pull one on me and see what happens.
Only had it happen twice.
Once by a hoodlum, and once by a girl I courted.
She wanted to cut me and see me bleed. I took her home promptly and didn't ask her out again.
That was the first time I learned about "cutting," and that was decades before I saw it on the news.
I just can't stand it to see a young, beautiful chick looking at me, winking at me and flirting with me... I just can't stand it!... I just have to grab her and hold her in my arms and give her a long juicy kiss - please, some one wake me up before a have a wet one!

I understand, oldfella. I'm an old fella, too. We can dream, can't we?

I am scared of fat nurses.
Due to the nature of my career path, I have spent a lot of time in hospitals. I figure if a nurse cannot take care of her own body, how the hell is she going to take care of mine.
One thing, that is not too irrational, at least to me: Whenever I cross a small bridge while working overseas, I crack the doors on the vehicle and have my hands on the quick release tabs on my body armor. Going into the drink while wearing a heavy assed vest scares the crap out of me.

I don't fear clowns I just think they are unfunny and silly. I do fear mimes though. I fear one may come on the TV and I can't find the damn remote.

I guess this guy over hauling our health care system is the scariest thing I can think of.

I didn't mention my greatest fear, even greater than mimes, and people that like mimes, because this thread hadn't yet turned political. But now that you have brought it up I have to agree. Nothing is scarrier than the direction this socialist community agitator is taking our country!
