Stupid things you believed when you were younger

Probably that I got get sucked down the drain!

I believed that the Earth was flat. And that time didn't exist. (like when I was 2 years old, duh!)

[Odyssey 5,716]

I believed that if I stared at a spoon without blinking for 1000 years, I would be granted telekinesis.

I believed that a girl would get pregnant if she hugged a guy, I believed that if you swallowed a watermelon seed a watermelon would grow in your stomach, and for some reason I thought that the world back then was actually in black and white.  In my defense, I was very young when I thought these things were true.

Website: *says something that has no virus and is a free download*

Me: 

*10 seconds later*

Me: "Hey why is everything running slower and what are all these pop-ups? "

That whole charade but on repeat. 

 

And I also thought that "King" and "Queen" were unisex titles meant for anyone. Gender didn't exist to me at all.

I can't think of anything else that is a bit more unorthodox.

That trucks only get pulled over by police trucks, bus only from police bus and so on

That raptors like hawks and eagles couldn't take off from the ground. 

No idea where my brother got that from lol. He denies he ever told me that but he did, I remember distinctly. Granted, we were like 4 and 6 at the time soooo....

I was told that if you thought about another fruit while eating a kiwi that it'd taste like whatever fruit you were thinking of. Up until a couple years ago I thought this was some common thing that everyone was told at some point but NOBODY I tell has ever heard of it?? I have no idea where it came from

When I was little I thought the ‘No outlet’ sign ment the people who lived on that street didn’t have power. Maybe they were Amish?

I believed in Ded Moroz and in telekinesis and magic.
