Pentheraphobia is an intense fear of Mother-in-Laws.
It’s the fear of things that (theoretically) pose no
actual danger. It’s kin to the fear of computer cookies,
singing karaoke, being medicated, or being
microchipped (labeled) by strangers or family.
Isn’t there also a phobia for waking up in strange places?

“There are various forms of the disease in which the victim
is unable to say “No.” Some of these forms are more serious
than others, and often lead to electrocution or marriage.”
Quotation by Robert Benchley
I’m currently in Kansas on Holiday. I’ll be back soon.
Electrocution or marriage, huh? Tough decision.
marriageophobia, I think of that often.
I have a mild case of pentheraphobia every couple of weeks, I should go see a doctor about it. Or maybe just go see some friends?
Kansas isn’t hell. I know many hells. Well, I don’t know Kansas actually, so who knows!
Hahaha, thanks for the laugh!
I *finally* get to use a computer.
Bettina. It’s only fair, I get some laughs from your blog too.
Ras. Marriageophobia is a real phobia? Ya, probably.
Thereas. I think more deaths-by-marriage happen statistically than by electrocution.
You’re right, Zhu, Kansas isn’t hell. I think it can be, though. It has that potential, just like anyplace else. Everyone I meet is very very nice.
Hugs.
In case I’m not able to find this computer again, I’ll be home next week! Miss you, and I’ll get caught up on your blogs when I’m home!
Meanwhile, I have regular updates to Encore Seraphine scheduled until my return.
Hilarious! Love this one!!!!
Mother-in-Laws can be very scary and very dangerous!!!
