Stupid things you believed when you were younger

[Bucket 107]

I used to think that when someone was giving birth, the doctor would cut off all their skin, take the baby out, then glue all the skin back on. I'm not really sure why.

Clouds were made of angels....

I can't recall anything from when I was a filly..

I believed the faucet on the laundry room sink would flood the house. The water pressure was very high it was very noisy. I'd run out of the room whenever it was turned on.

I used to believe that if I flushed a toilet at night, it would turn into a black hole and suck me up.

I thought that the 8th floor of my building was in space and that sea water was drinkable.

I was a very level headed and intelligent child (WAS); but I  remember thinking there were monsters underneath the first set of stairs in my house, and I always bolted up  them.

I got the "talk " at three years old by my mom using a medical textbook. She neglected to explain semen. Connect the dots.

My dad told me when i was little that school buses had the strobe light on top so planes did not land on them. I believed that was true much longer then i should have.

I believed that kissing was sex... It was a very hard thing not to do.

A lot of things! I thought I was a dog and would run around the house on all fours and bark. I had a hobby horse and I used to put a bag of cereal over his head (like a feed bad) and one time someone took the cereal out the bag and I was convinced it was alive! Lastly, I thought my sister was a zombie (she used to scare me so I'd get her juice).

I thought that people were constantly singing live on the radio.

 

I thought characters in movies were actors and everytime I put in a VHS, they would go back on set and act out the entire movie again.

 

That the sun and moon followed me in the car.

 

That if I went out of my bed at night, something would be in the dark waiting for me. (I actually sort of still believe this..)

~ I thought having sex was not how women became pregnant (I thought it was just a random occurrence). I believed this for way longer than I should have ... like ... 6-8th grade ... yeeeah.

 

~ I believed girls were icky, and told myself (and my mother) that I would never like-like them. HAHA, yeah, now look at me. (Still not interested in a gf, but I am attracted)

 

~ I thought that wars/battles were fought like ... uh ... here let me try to explain it. *Ahem* Okay, so there's a desert, and there's two straight, parallel lines of sand hills, separated by a flat, empty plain in the middle. One soldier hid behind each individual hill and fired at the guy opposite of him. Yeah. xD

 

And, uh, probably a few more.

Until I was like 13, for some reason I believed when someone said "No, My Left!" when speaking about the direction to go in a movie or tv show or something, I thought that some people had different left and rights. Like, you consider left right, etc. No idea why I thought this, lol.

[IcyHaze 593]

I thought that places like New York and skyscrapers were in my country...but always somewhere else...

 

I was wrong

I saw my movie theater had a pirate with a X over it, so I though they had a discrimination over sea pirates and if I'd dress up as one they'd ban me from coming back.

 

I also thought adults had it easy. Foolish I was.

Actors who died in films died in real life.

That Australia was centered in Europe, right where Sicily is.
