"Research"?

[randallboggs]

That's right.

[ghoulking]

Research for what?

[ text ]

[randallboggs]

About fears, of course.

[Evasive.]

[flambeauyant]

You seem to have a lot of 'monsters' on your list.

text

[randallboggs]

Everyone's afraid of some sort of monster.

Getting crushed by student debt is a real and legitimate fear.

[randallboggs]

That's not very visible.

[functusofficio]

An odd question to ask, I feel.

text.

[randallboggs]

Why? It's a legitimate study.

[Sure.]

I'm impressed you're so good at questionnaires.

Hey, thanks.

Wow, what did monsters ever do to you, huh?

text

[randallboggs]

I had to live with them.

I'm just afraid of the reptilian government catching up with me, but that can't really happen here. Since...there's no reptilian government here.

Text

[randallboggs]

Are you afraid of reptiles in general?

text

[applewatcher]

Will you publish your results?

text

[randallboggs]

Why should I?

Seems like there's a theme going with your poll.

text

[randallboggs]

Everyone's afraid of monsters, right?

[lesterzeppelin]

What did monsters ever do to you, buddy?

text

[randallboggs]

I had to deal with them daily.

[aboveand]

Why leave out all the good stuff? I mean there's fear of flying, fear of clowns, fear of the dark, fear of public speaking, fear of commitment, fear of rejection... Monsters are like the least scary thing on your list.

text

[randallboggs]

I did put darkness on there.

The rest you can't visualize.

Well, clowns you can, but that's more of a human on human thing.

[livesfastdiesung]

What if I'm not scared of any of it?
I just see a lot of potential friends!

text;

[randallboggs]

You'd make friends with snakes and spiders and monsters?

text

[bindsthedead]

Monsters aren't particularly frightening unless you're a child, or don't know how to fight.

text

[randallboggs]

Children are easier targets, sure.

[looseleaves]

Monsters in general are pretty creepy...
But I'm a lot more afraid of letting people down, which monsters can't really show?
Mm, and in the right context, monsters can be nice, too.

text;

[randallboggs]

You've met nice monsters?

text

[izanyagi]

I'm not afraid of monsters...maybe when I was younger but I've fought so many they don't seem that frightening anymore.

text

[randallboggs]

How do you fight them?

[hellosirs]

Is there a reason this survey is so monster-centric, sir?

text

[randallboggs]

Because people are afraid of monsters. Right?

Voice;

[wizzardly]

Yes.

[text]

[randallboggs]

Yes? Yes what?

voice;

[secondplacescrow]

Lad, I've seen actual monsters who can't really fit the any of these. They are pretty awful, and I'm pretty afraid of them.

[text]

[randallboggs]

What monsters have you seen?

text

[am_i_a_monster]

How do you define monsters?

text

[randallboggs]

Monsters are monsters. It isn't complicated.

[morethan084]

Research for what exactly?

[randallboggs]

Isn't it obvious?

[ Well. Pitch legitimately doesn't quite know what to do with this. Certainly he's not the only Fear spirit in the world (his world, at least) and while he knows fears intrinsically, that's unique to him. BUT A POLL!? He feels like he should be offended. ]

And what of you?

[randallboggs]

What about me?
