Patrick Stump: The Only Thing He Has to Fear Is Shaken, Not Stirred

He's performed on stage with Fall Out Boy for packed crowds of screaming girls.  He's worked with artists in genres from hip-hop to indie rock.  And he's done it all with a hat firmly planted on his head to hide his dirty little (bald) secret.

So what the hell is Patrick Stump afraid of?



If your answer was "Pete getting bored while there's a t-shirt cannon near-by," you're close, but so, so far away.  Actually, according to what Stump told Rolling Stone Magazine, he has a fear of some of the most friendly, understanding creatures out there.  No, not hippos.  Bartenders.

Stump, who reports that he has never actually walked up to a bar and ordered a drink, says "I have a crippling fear of doing it because I don't know the basic social conventions of doing it. I've only seen it in movies."

Patrick, don't worry.  Ordering a drink is easy.  It doesn't matter if you're ordering a dirty martini, a buttery nipple, a dirty girl scout, a vibrator, or a screaming orgasm.  Take a deep breath, order, and let the bartender work their magic.

If you ever need to practice, contact me.

So, Buzznet, what's your weirdest fear?

Traveling on my own scares me. I fell like I don't know exactly where I'm going so I'll mess some stuff up and end up on the FAA's No Fly list because I accidentally checked my bag containing pipe bombs for the wrong airline.

I hate phones. I can never tell if the person on the other end is laughing at my lack of social skills.
I'm awkward on the telephone too (and I hate talking to people when I could be asleep) but usually their awkwardness trumps mine so they feel strange.

Psh, I'm awkward as hell with crap like that too. Bars are especially terrifying because everyone is so "hip" (or at least trying to be). I usually make someone else order my drinks, haha. It's the nice thing about being a girl.

Props to writing this article. It's not easy making something so boring sound hilariously entertaining. God I love Buzznet.

Now on the field of topic response, my worst fear is moths. I'm really not afraid of anything expect those furry little demons. Earthquakes, spiders, water, the dark; I'm comfortable with all of it. Just not moths. They genuinely frighten the hell out of me. I can't stand the sight of them.

Spiders are a huge fear for me. I'm usually fine talking on the phone, but if it's for business or something important, I freak out and try and get someone else to do it for me.

Gotta say this is the most random article I've read in a while. I love your bad/brilliant fanfiction, laryngitisxxlullabies!!!! XD I could so see someone writing that lol.
