For example, I am somewhat afraid of the far future. I mean not that literally, I'll be dead. But just the thought of seeing the Sun crisp up the Earth in a few billion years or the Milky Way and Andromenda galaxies colliding into eachother just haunts me. Also more commonly thinking of an asteroid hitting Earth
Not necessarily dying, but the idea that we just lose the ability to think. It is literally unfathomable to conceive the emptiness that came before my own awareness. It scares me that in the end, I can only remain conscious for so long.
Being banned on Facepunch
Pregnancy/parasites. It's totally irrational coz I'm a guy. Maybe I watched Alien too many times.
Pointy things in my eyes.
flies.
Being on a ladder or anything else that isn't extremely securely fastened. Catwalks, anything hanging from rope, etc. If it doesn't feel completely solid I start panicking internally.
Guitar strings
lonliness, Ive always hated it and dont intend for it to be with me forever
I'm worried about my sisters' well-beings as they grow up. It scares me just thinking of the possibility they might end up having a rough childhood, just like I did.
Fluff balls of hair that end up on your socks or on the bathroom floor.
They freak me the fuck out.... oh god and when they stick to you.... uggghhhhh!
True immortality.
The fact that at some point in time, everything will cease to exist. No more stars in space. Black holes dying out. Just, nothingness. If you were truly immortal, you would be the last thing left. You would literally have nothing to do.
I worry about one of my testicles spinning around in my scrotum ultimately cutting off circulation, thus making that testicle useless.

Having my Achilles tendon severed for whatever reason, my worst fear.

What, testicular torsion? Scares me too.

I think I just shut my legs.
Uuuuggggghhhh
Nothing
I'm afraid of nothing
Butterflies
I'm extremely creeped out and prone to panic around insects, spiders, and all other such creepy crawlies. This includes worms, walking sticks, crane flies, ants, bumble bees, caterpillars, moths, and butterflies.
Most of these are kill on sight if they enter my room, though since I still have some respect for bumble bees and harmless spiders I usually try to either trick them to go in some other room or call for someone not afraid of them to escort them out non-lethally.
If however I know any of these things are in a close unconfined vicinity to me, I won't be able to think of anything else until they are gone. I won't be able to go to sleep, I can't enjoy videogames or movies, I can't concentrate on work, I can't pay full attention to conversations.
Even though I know a lot of creepy crawlies pose no threat to me, I still highly associate their visual appearances with other venomous counterparts, blood suckers, disease carriers, wasps, other things that bite and sting, vermin, and parasites.
Crane flies freak me out because as a kid I always thought of them as giant clumsy mosquitoes.
Worms freak me out because I always think of parasites/maggots and I keep imagining round mouths with lots of teeth.
Caterpillars freak me out because they look like giant maggots and I once looked at one that seemed to have some sorta large stinger and it was making aggressive humping motions around itself. I'm particularly freaked out by moths because they look like big flying caterpillars with lots of legs, I imagine them with stingers like that gross caterpillar I saw and using them to sting or lay eggs under your skin, or I imagine them digging through your skin like that scene in Evolution. I think of butterflies as moths with vivid colors in the same way a lot of creatures warns predators that they're poisonous.
The passage of time.
It's a [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronophobia"]legitimate phobia[/URL] and all, but I don't think it's that common.
Being dependent on somebody. Don't get me wrong I have many close friends and whatnot but I'm so sick of getting let down at the times when I really need people and I'd hate to feel like I [I]absolutely need[/I] someone at any point in my life
I don't mean this as in I don't need anybody in my life, I'm glad I've met all the people I have in my life. I just mean like, I am scared to be so needy of people that I can't function without them in my life
I'm scared of crossing roads. Not to the point where I can't do it or anything, but I'm super uncomfortable doing it. It began after I performed first aid on a young woman who had her leg torn off by a car.

Looking out a window across the room when it's dark outside. I feel tension asif there's going to be a face creeping out from the edge or something.
Dirt (as in general filth)
edit: probably not uncommon though
It's kinda hard to explain. After spending some time with someone, like talking or just being in the same room with a bunch of people I start wondering; what if, during the span of the last hour or something. I've made a complete ass out of myself, but I just don't remember it? What if I've let out a loud fart that everyone heard but me, or I've just suppressed the memory of it? If I talk to someone I sometimes think that, what if in the middle of the conversation I've just started insulting them or generally just made an ass out of myself, but I can't remember it? I just can't fucking know, because I wouldn't fucking remember!
I know it's an irrational and dumb fear, but I legitimately experience this. It's not like a crippling fear or any thing, it's just a really uncomfortable though that pops up more often than I would like it to pop up.
babies.
Fucking clowns
