    I used to think babies came out of your belly button. Boy did I get a shock when I learned the truth...!

    That a woman knew it was time to start shaving when the hair on her legs turned dark. Mine were white blond until I was 12. When I started getting teased for not shaving is when I started, even though it went "against" what I believed...that my hair wasn't dark yet.

    There is this Billy Joel song "your only human" and as a child I thought it was Bill Cosby singing it.

    Don't ask me why.

    What an absolutely silly thing to believe...

    Joey was singing to me, for me, and always about me.

    For some reason I thought "Don't Stop Believin'" was "don't stop a beaver"...

    I grew up in a tiny town and we had a shallow ditch between our yard and the road. When I was a little kid, when it rained a lot and that ditch filled up with water I believed I could actually catch fish out of it with my little home made fishing pole.

    My birthday often falls on Memorial Day. Since schools are closed on Memorial Day, I always thought that my birthday was more special than everyone elses, because we got the day off for ME!!!

    I'm still just as arrogant, but I've learned that we get the day off for other reasons....

    I believed that religious people were all good.. then I got hurt.

    Oh.. I believed that gay people just kissed a lot of people - because one boy at my school liked to kiss everyone, and he was called gay. I didn't make the same-sex association for quite a few years.. mostly when I started being accused of being a lesbian.

    I'm with you! I'm being very restrained here!

    I used to always put my crusts from my sandwiches in my dogs' bowl. They loved them and ate all of it...

    Only about 6 months ago when somehow this came up over dinner that my mum told me they never ate them, and she threw them away when they went hard! I NEVER KNEW TILL THIS DAY!!! 20+ years on!

    I also believed the doctors who said my wife's MS "might not be that bad".....lying *kitten*.

    and finally... that i didnt use to eat that much really.... =/

    When I got my 1st paycheck job at 13, I thought the money they took out of my check for social security went into "my account". Why else did I have a social security number, right? Boy was I freaking p*ssed when I found out that the old folks were getting my hard earned money!

    That my Dad knew EVERYTHING. I was heartbroken when I got to an age where I asked a question and he couldn't answer it. Gutted!

    That the reason you shouldn't wear white shoes after labor day would be because when it snowed, you wouldn't be able to see your feet. :huh:
