I do not watch horror movies. Roller coaster rides at amusement parks do not amuse me. I do not attend Halloween scream fests. Why not? Because I am not a fan of being scared by artificial means. There's enough to be scared about in everyday life. Why add to fear if you don't have to? It's not worth being irrationally scared about things you can't control. A large boulder is not likely to fall on my house, killing me, so I see no need to construct a boulder net over the house. A lightning strike? Possible but highly improbable. Plus, staying in a safe place during a storm will forestall the event. I have no trouble ignoring the fear mongering from advertisers wanting me to buy additional insurance products. I'm not afraid of a black cat crossing my path or of walking under ladders.
