I couldn't say why, but many of them freak me out. I don't tend to demand that someone kill it, but I feel the "ew."

A friend can't stand their flight pattern. It's too chaotic. I find misquitos and flies peskier, so I think this one might be a phobia.

It's their flight pattern for me too.
Also, I have never been in a place with enough butterflies that some would get in my face, or I might have ended up smacking some that catch me distracted.

That's interesting, there's something to that. They are hard to predict, and it puts me on edge. When they're just perched somewhere, it bothers me less.

Yeah, it goes deep. They used it to make Anthony Hopkins scarier for the Silence of the Lambs poster, so you're definitely not alone!
