I found this interesting fact about beer online. Did you know that Cenosillicaphobia is the fear of having an empty beer glass? I never knew that such a fear had a name but it is real and very terrifying! :)
 
OH that is hilarious! I could see that being trotted out at parties. Well, I have to have my glass full because i have Cenosillicaphobia. What's that people might respond,,and they would think the person was joking when they said they had Cenosillicaphobia.

I think it has a nice ring to it too. lol It would be fun to see people trying to guess what your phobia was.
 
The only trouble is what is the proper pronounciation? I guess it is just as it looks. This belongs in one of the strange but true categories. I think it is just one of the things that you have to get right to carry this thing off.

So does that mean that the person walks around with a full glass and never drinks from it with the fear that it will become empty? :D

This is very interesting. I never knew that there was such a phobia and its even a bit difficult to pronounce. I guess that a person who suffers from this type of phobia would need to have beer being added to their glass as soon as the content level drops to a certain point but I wonder how long will that be sustainable before the drinker would probably get into a drunken stupor.
 
Yes, I have another word for this phobia...I would call them impaired...seriously..can you imagine?? Unless they were total sippers.. I mean I guess you could nurse one beer all night if you just took sips, which you might want to if you want your glass full all the time.

I guess all of us have had this at one time or another. I hope that sufferers of this condition, have a designated driver! I mean really. It seems like there are phobias for everything nowadays. I wonder who sits around and names all these phobias??:D:p
 
It's every alcoholic dream come true. A real reason. I heard about this but I always thought of it as a joke. I guess it is not but it is funny when you think of it. The easiest way to have your glass full is actually not drinking the beer. It is maybe the opposite of alcoholism. It can be the cure for it :)
 
I didn't know there was such a word as Cenosillicaphobia. But having an empty beer glass is positively terrifying. Phobia, Shmobia ... I do believe that is just good old fashioned common sense. :D
 
I had that problem, but it was starting when I saw an empty bottle. However, resolving was pretty easy, and I just needed to go to a local store buying new bottles. I was very persistent with beer, and I drank it almost instantly. It was my favorite beverage and our love lasted many years. But, I have also heard that beer is healing and that was used as a cure sometime in the past.
 
Let's just hope you haven't had to many beers before you try telling someone your impending doom is approaching and you are cenosillicaphobic.
