Aibohphobia

From Wacklepedia - The Free Encyclopedia


Aibohphobia is a humorous term used to describe a fictional irrational fear or phobia of palindromes. The word is, of course, a palindrome itself. (An intentionally constructed one however, aiboh- has no actual meaning.) The word seems to have been invented in the comic strip The Wizard of Id.
