Underwater Unpleasantness!

Ok, it's fairly common knowledge that spider crabs and I have an uneasy relationship. I find them physically repulsive and they actually make me flinch when I happen across them on a dive. There are other creatures that do this as well; beasties that I find unpleasant to look at/be near:

Spider crabs
Sea cucumbers
Hammerhead sharks
Brittle stars
Crevice Sea Cucumbers
Rays

How about you?

Jellyfish. Bloody revolting things that clearly have no right to take up space in the sea.

Can't see whats wrong with rays though?

Ah, but they made up for it in Sulawesi. I don't like their faces.

I don't like those brown trout that float on the surface near Sharm.

Nor bluebottles (Portuguese man O War) since one wrapped itself round me in Oz. Ouch.

another vote for other divers - I had a client pull a knife on me when I told him we needed to ascend as near to no decompression limit
