Okay so I got my submechanophobia from pool-cleaners, I remember when I was a little tiny girl- like four I discovered my fear of pool cleaners. I remember in my house I had a slide and a pool cover. I would always slide onto the pool cover- one day I thought the pool cover was on and it wasnt- the pool cleaner was at the end of the slide, I slid down and almost passed out from being so scared. thankfully my parents were there to watch me. It was traumatic. Another time when I was ten-years-old I discovered my fear for all underwater robotics- and later researched it- I saw pictures of all underwater robotics and started to cry- I went to my friends' houses and we went to swim. I begged them to take the pool cleaner out and they did. I was so thankful, later I told my best friend about my fear and she laughed. I started crying because she was laughing because it was a huge deal to me. Im scared of pool cleaners because the long skinny hose- the big huge "head" I call it the head. And the net- the head had eyes I would always tell my mom, I would show her the face: Look the three wheels, Eyes- and a mouth. She always said, its a cute face! I said back. its demonic-!!!! im in my twenties now and still scare myself with the pool cleaner- I have one more traumatic story about a pool cleaner. I was at a camp when I was 8, for girl scouts and the pool was nice and clean. I wondered how it was so clean when dirt surrounded it, I took my swim test and figured it out. Right then and there 5 pool cleaner hook-ups in a row, five!!!! the pool was huge so no wonder they needed that many pool-cleaners but I cried while taking the test- I cried hard, I almost never took the test, there was no way I would swim with pool cleaners. but my friends forced me to and I almost drowned- pool-cleaners below me from being frozen in fear!!! thats my story- im most scared of pool-cleaners. also sorry this was so long im just way to happy people agree with me- haha!
