Stupid things you believed when you were younger

[Rift enchanted 378]

Well I believed in

Ghosts (now other things bother me)

That in order to have a baby born the doctor would have to cut open your stomach

That America meant all of North America

[SilverStarApple 849]

I was told that all drugs are lethal self-damaging body-destroying insta-death chems that should never even be touched without prongs.

[yayayayayala 1,668]

-That the Disney princesses were inside the drain of my shower.

LOL WUT?! XD

My mom had a shadow belief that if she walked down a dark hall the wolf would get her. She didn't actually believe it...but it was still there in her mind. I didn't really believe anything weird that I can remember, but I did have weird dreams about electronics that made me scared of them for a while. XD

[man dude man 555]

I used to think that stuff I saw on TV was real, like acting, and those shows, I thought they were actual peoples lives lol.

[Lightning Bliss 1,674]

Oh god, where do I begin? The sad thing is, I still remember them!

 

- If I cut myself, no matter where, it be the finger or toe, I would die.

 

- My shadow was a mirror version of myself and had its own personality

 

- Zuul from Ghostbusters was going to get me if I didn't turn on my closet night light

 

- The dinosuars from Jurrassic Park were real, because you can't film something if its not in front of the camera.

[GrauWitz 1,010]

- Thomas the Tank Engine was real

 

- If I eat French Fries, I'd become French

 

- Anything supernatural in movies was real (because I wasn't aware of special effects at the time)

 

- That I could only go to sleep if it was dark outside

 

- The Tooth Fairy was real

 

- China was in Europe

 

So yeah, I was a sad, awkward kid back then XD

I thought adults never did anything wrong.

 

Boy was I wrong about that...

[SomariFeyWright 776]

I remember, when I was young, I thought children were born by coming out by means of the stomach actually opening up and letting the child out.

 

How I came out sane with ideas like that, I don't know.

[Bucket 107]

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

Hehe, I used to think that too.

[~Silver Essence~ 2,621]

That the big white part in the head of a killer whale was the eye.

 

Yep, I'm sure I wasn't alone on this.

[Eureka 1,119]

I used to believe that the dinosaurs built the pyramids.

 

I was an interesting child.

[Lagom 204]

I believed in almost everything people would tell me such as The Tooth Fairy, Santa Claus and to that extend that me and my friends had magical powers.

[SkyDream 315]

Being in the same room as the toilet would flush me down the drain with it. It's how I learned to run so fast. It's also how I kept bumping into doors.

[RunsWithSquirlz 274]

I sure as heck believed I was going to grow-up and become a Pokemon Master, that's for sure.

[Judgement 445]

That I controlled everything and that people couldn't do things unless I was in the same room as them.

[caramba2654 601]

Let me see...

 

I thought that trees weren't real if I saw them from behind the car windows. I also thought that there was a little spoon in my stomach that stirred the food that I ate.

 

Erm... It made sense when I was that age! :v

[FatalRain 108]

I wasn't 5 at the time

but I remember believing in the Blair witch and being deathly afraid of her

especially since my sister said she lived in my closet 

[irondefender 57]

That babbys come from the stalk.

[Oblivion 20,265]

I use to be afraid I would get sucked down the drain!!!!

[Princess Lona 381]

There is a tiny band living inside every radio. They look like a disco-funk fusion band and even though there's only about four of them they can sound like any voice you want. They get directions of what to play and how to sound from radio waves.

[Everleaf 541]

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 had the same kind of stuff when I was little in my head and something in the dark waiting for you? just think of Luna

Well I thought for one the sun and moon followed me in the car or even walking 

 

 

that I could talk to animals (well I sorta can the animals seem to kinda understand me though

 

 

I thought on the radio they had sung live (if you know what I mean

 

I thought my my little ponies (well gen1) had been alive 

 

Barbie scares me I thought she was going to eat me (don't judge me) 

 

that someone was going to kidnap me while walking though the forest (before I knew or Slender man was made XD) 

 

I thought I was a cat

 

I thought people in this world had not got a actual life (as in they did not really live) but me

That I had Lunar powers

 

My build a bears had been alive 

 

how to have a baby is just to find a love and well...you have a baby XD

 

there was a demon under the door.

 

 

 

All I can remember right now...

[TheLegend 3]

It's tough to remember. I think I recall believing that I could do anything when I grow up, no matter what societal (dis)advantages there were.

[RainbowDashiscool 305]

This is very tricky i cannot even remember stupid things i did as five years old but ive done some stupid things but i don't know what age i was in some of them but i can tell you how stupid things i did and believed here:

 

1.I thought i was a teen werewolf (That happened when i was 13 years old and i stopped believing i was one when i was 15 years old... and I'm 16 years old)

 

2.In kindergarden i did not know what too do it was in a christmas music time in kindergarden then when we were finished we were moving too go back too class and i had a dumb face not knowing what too do xD)

(I believe thats it of my stupid things and stupid things i use too believe)

[Adorkable 2,737]

Hey, I think we all believed the thing about the Watermelon seeds. xD

 

Do the typical "Santa Clause" and "Tooth Fairy" answers count? ^^

[Nine 707]

I used to think that radio towers were only for hanging flashing red lights on, and that the flashing red lights were only to keep aircraft from hitting the towers.

 

I still use this mistake as a metaphor for single things that have a purpose in context, but taken as a whole are totally pointless.
