Airedale Terrier. I tried to fuck one during a psychotic episode.

I’m not a huge fan of dogs in general. They’re capable of unsettling amounts of violence and you have no idea if/how they’ve been trained.
-
leeches. i watched some movie as a kid and leeches dangling over the heroes after they crossed some water scared me good.
-
those beach jelly fishes. nope. i get why they are there and i'd prefer to give them their space.
-
anything with those scaly shiny black and yellow hornet danger colors.
Beaches jellyfishes remind me of Lurker zurg units in StarCraft. My understanding is that jellyfishes tentacles will still shoot their barbs long after the main part has died.
I loved spiders, except for brown recluses. Not because they're venomous, but because of the way they look, like those old tan M&Ms but with a slick sheen.
I don't like dogs (except Huskies), because they often bark so sudden and loud. It seems they only have one volume setting for barking. I mean, they are cute and all, but one day they're gonna give me a heart attack.
My friend's wife taught their dog the cutest trick.
"[Dog], speak!" (WOOF)
"[Dog]....whisper!" (...woof..)
Lamprey, I am not really a sucker for them
Ducks and dolphins are the serial rapists of the animal kingdom.
and beavers, those ones also rape young penguins
True. From "aww" to "nope" as soon as learning the truths about dolphins.
Mice. Often times they're branded as rodents and for a reason, because they tend to carry disease on them and aren't around your home just to be cute either.
Pet mice are supposed to be clean, but I am still nervous with them. Especially those with red eyes.
The still poop and pee constantly but its clean I guess?
Uh... what?
They're not rodents because they carry diseases. They're rodents because they're from the order "Rodentia".
Often times they’re branded as rodents
But... I mean... they are?
Squirrels. Cute as hell in the wild, not so much in my attic. They are tiny little destructive machines.
Their PR team is doing great work
As a fellow Jay who has also had to deal with Squirrels in the attic, I wholeheartedly concur. Squirrels - what a bunch of bastards.
Sloths and praying mantis' can fuck right off, they give me the creeps!
I'd like to add the sloth bear to your list
my spirit animal
How dare you!
Pandas. They are too dumb to be alive. Their diet mostly consists of plants that have hardly any nutrition, and can't be bothered to reproduce.
Dogs with blue eyes look absolutely psychotic to me for some reason, like it's indicative that they're the serial killers of the canine world or something. It's super unnerving. This doesn't translate to any other animal for me; for instance I think blue-eyed cats are gorgeous.
Aww...
But then you also have these
This one still looks cute and cool to me. Yeah it is weird but in a good way.
Monkeys are total assholes. They act just like 7 year old children would if they were high on sugar and there were no repercussions for their actions.
I don't understand why some people find monkeys cute. They're so ugly and obnoxious! They don't even have the presence or majesty of great apes either. The further from humans on the evolutionary scale, the cuter primates tend to be IMO. By the time you get to lemurs, bush babies, etc, you've hit standard mammal cuteness.
I'm convinced like 95% of people that say they like monkeys have never interacted with one.
…and the final 5% are just lying…
Yeah greyhounds look weird but they're the sweetest dumbest most loving buddies
