Stupid things you believed when you were younger

[rarity1 461]

I used to believe that I had to take the insults that have been yelled at me.  If only I can go back and break their faces.

When I was 5, I believed that every woman got pregnant. I didn't think girls had a choice. I thought they just.. Magically became pregnant !

So did I! I thought if you just hung around too much with a boy, you'd end up having a baby just from being near him!

Here are a couple other things I believed.

 

I thought if you stuck two magnets together and left them that way for a year, they would weld permanently together. 

I thought if you drank directly from the facet like you do from a water fountain, you'd swallow worms and bugs.

Chuck E. Cheese was evil.

 

I dont think you were wrong with that one.

[remove p l e a s e ? 800]

I dont think you were wrong with that one.

If my 5 year old self saw the commercials of Chuck E. Cheese right now, I would've probably crap myself in fear.

[wowowowo 132]

When I was five I thought life was a video game about me

When brother said there was a monter on me and I needed to swat it he was telling the truth

I thought that babies appeared at the hospital after your parents had you know what (yes I knew what it was)

I thought the mom had to be fat to have you know what

That my brother was the world champion at Star Wars battlefront and that's how he always beat me

[kelseymarie805 301]

Well, I have a birthmark on my ankle that looks like a kiss, and my mom told me it was an angel kiss and I always believed her.

 

That my mom had eyes in the back of her head, I would seriously look for eyes back there. xDD

 

That imaginary friends were real.

 

Hmmm that's all I can really think of atm......

[Pancakes7643 4]

That chocolate milk comes from brown cows...hey I was a 5 year old!

[User07832407840 177]

That Santa exists.
I also didn't understand the concept of dramatizations on TV shows that are based on real stories; I just thought the cameras just happened to be there when stuff happened, cause that was the only way I could understand how they caught the stuff on film.

That telling my mom I was going across the street with a friend and then going down the very steep driveway in a toy car was a smart idea.

 

The toy car rolled, I cracked my head open and chipped my tooth. There was enough blood that my mom couldn't at first figure out where I was hurt and was freaking out.

-----------------

 

Walking the edge of a large flowerpot at the airport with my mom, no listening to her when she told me to get down.

 

Cracked my head open yet again, though I was able to still get on the plane once the bleeding stopped. I got stitches once I met up with my dad.

I believed that when people die, they're gone forever, and we are forever separated from them. When I first learned of death when I was a kid, I was mortified, and I ran to my mom and climbed into bed with her and hugged her, and told her I never want her to die.

i believed that:

my sonic the hedgehog hightops ACTUALLY made me run faster

i could get sucked down the bathtub drain or the toilet if i was in the same room when it finished and they made that HORRIBLE NOISE

our lawn jockey statue came to life at night. id leave him a plate of food and a bowl of water outside every afternoon and itd be gone in the morning (we lived in the woods, now im certain it was just possums or coons or something xD)

my dad was Magnum PI and that the reason i never got to see him, was because he had to be there at the studio to do the show everyday.....

peaches were animals because they have fur, so i wouldnt eat them xD

i insisted that churches were castles--they all had that steeple spire thing on top. and a princess ruled each area xD

and that the rapture would happen before i ever lost my grandparents....

Pinto beans were Grand-daddy long-legs that my mother had plucked the legs off of!

i thought werewolves were HUGE demon possessed wolves--like dire wolf sized D: and that they lived in my woods and would tear me to pieces and eat me.   i HATED running from our house to my grandmothers next door. (its like a football field away.. in the dark D: for a cup of sugar?!!?)

the people across the street were vampires because i only saw them out at night, mowing his lawn usually....

i was deathly afraid of vacuum cleaners--especially the one in the swimming pool.  i had hair down to my rear when i was little and my best friend used to torment me with horror stories of kids drowning in the drains and stuff.  i was scared my hair would get caught ><  im actually still leery of drains in pools... yay trauma.

-- I thought that villains on cartoons were the "worst" someone could possible be.

 

-- I thought that China was literally on the exact opposite end of the planet from where I lived.

 

-- I thought that Tombstones were actually giant chess pieces that people could play with.

[Zenit 190]

I thought I lived in usa. i can only think of one. 

[Golem 65]

That my dad had a voice activated car

That I was a mutant that looked like nightcrawler, except I was green, and knew how to cloak my true form

That a family of vampires was living in my room and they'd come out when it was dark so we can talk about or day

That my aunt was a witch (A good one.) But there were also bad witches around.

That if I stayed in the bathroom until the toilet had finished flushing a monster would come out of it.

That if I turn off the light spiders will fill my room and bed. I still somewhat believe this. I don't like sleeping in the dark   

[WindShear 532]

I thought that growing up and being an adult would be fun, and meant I could do whatever I wanted.

[Everleaf 541]

I believed that if I push very very hard while I was pooping I'd poop out rainbows or gold. The result of that was bloody poop until my mom told me that it isn't true and that if I keep pooping like that, I'd go through some scary things in the hospital D:

 

POOP DA RAINBOWS

I thought zombies would get me if I didn't stop looking at the door or cover my self up to the neck no matter how hot it was....I was about um maybe 8 or 9...I lost a lot of sleep due to this.

 

That there are ghost in my basement and monsters....I still due if you saw my basement you would think so to and where I am moving the basement is even worse...

 

That if you mashed the button harder like in platformers it would make you go father or higher like in donkey Kong country or super mario world still do this to. And holding down the button for pokemon captures also still do this.

 

That I could see said ghosts in basement and I swear I can hear them whisper to me...I think I am going crazy.

[Commander Frost 731]

-I used to think that everything I saw in the movie was real.

 

-I used to think that salt came from the whales. Because of this :

 

 

-I used to think that when I played a video game against the computer, I played in fact against someone else who was paid to play.

 

-When I was much younger and I first watched a movie in black and white, I used to think that the world used to be black and white and that colours suddenly appeared one day.

 

I was really stupid back then.....

 

EDIT : changed "payed" to "paid"
