"I used to study under this Linguistics professor who was more into his work than anyone I've ever met. He had children, and he called them 'language acquisition devices.'"

By all rights, Doctor Octopus should be much dorkier than he is. To begin with, you're not that scary if the Japanese eat you raw. Also, he has a haircut that's more stupid than roughly 80% of the Little Rascals. Also, his power is "more arms."
Genuphobia is the fear of knees. I usually avoid taking delight in other people's ailments, but what the hell. This is great! I can just imagine someone saying "Oh, god! Knees!" or "Don't let the knees get me!" The worst part is, you can't even go into the fetal position! That would just bring you closer to the dread knees! It must really suck to be afraid of a part of your own body. I mean, I don't really trust my elbows to be there for me in a crisis, but that's a different issue entirely.
