I really do have a fear of staplers, what do i call it?
does anyone else have a fear like this?
please don’t give “funny” of criticizing answers.
i am only afraid of them when others like “shoot them” or even use them, not the staplers themselves.

    staplophobia

    2 of my guy friends in high school would shoot staples at me
    that’s when i began fear them.
    i thought they’d eventually fall in the center of my eye
    and i’d lose my vision for the rest of my life.

    they hurt…the staples…i once stapled my finger by accident in 5th grade.
