When I was 18 I had a honda accord. The guy I was dating at the time told me it was a rice burner.. I totally believed it could run on rice for like 3 years LOL

That the song MaryJane by Rick James was about a woman and not the green ganja! :laugh:

<misunderstood song poker> I'll 'see' your "Mary Jane" and raise you a "Brandy" by "The O'Jays"

Definitely can relate to that! Who knew it was about a dog! :noway:

That leather was made out of butterfly wings. I swear my mom told me that, but she doesn't rememberit.

That "Coming Attractions" was the name of a movie.

That 'cheese' was spelled 'cheeze'

And to think I'd make the weekly sale signs at the grocery store.....took until I was 24 for someone to tell me I was spelling it incorrectly.

I thought To Be Announced (seen regularly in the TV Guide AND on the TV Guide Channel) was some sort of boring PBS-like newsprogram.

That the Cowboys were good.

This!

My Dad told me that there was a special breed of cows that had shorter legs on one side of their body, which made it easier for them to eat the grass on mountain-sides.

That clowns were evil and if you had one in your room it would kill you while you slept.....I hate clowns of any kind and someone gave my son a clown on a swing to hang in his room when he was little and it took everything I had to go in there (didn't have the heart to tell him he couldn't have it)......

icandowhateveriputmymindto

I thought that movies were films of people's real lives conveniently filmed at the perfect times...

I thought you had to drink 8 full glasses of water a day instead of 8 cups- making it close to 15 cups.

It was Grown Ups with Adam Sandler and a bunch of other funny guys

My dad told me that refinery smock stacks in SoCal were the place where the Indians used to cook their steaks. I believed that for a looooooong time.

My friend convinced me cars took blinker fluid... And that it needed to be full for the blinker lights to work. -.- lol

When I was about 7, my 12 year old cousin and 10 year old brother convinced me that they were aliens from another planet and that their spaceship was buried in the back yard. I couldn't figure out a way to prove them wrong so I had to believe 'em.

I had a friend who was about 25 years old, and I was cooking tacos. Because I sort of rolled the tortilla around after filling them, he went ballistic and started telling me how much he hated burritos. I said DUDE it's still a taco. Apparently he believed that by rolling the taco up, it became a burrito.

That if you keep doing that you'll go blind.

Sorry, but I'm no longer able to read this :laugh:

That the court appointed psychiatrist was a friend in whom I could confide :laugh:

When I was a kid I thought lesbians were aliens that shot lasers from their eyes. (I have no idea why.)

pudadough

That my brother was actually going to come FIND me when he suggested that we play hide and seek. I stayed in that laundry hamper for an hour before I figured out his scheme!

:grumble:

I thought the "In case of fire, use stairs" signs by the elevator meant there might be a fire in the elevator so you should the stairs instead. I could never understand why there was an elevator AND a sign telling you not to use it because it might catch on fire. :embarassed:

When I was little, I used to think if you jumped at just the right time in a descending elevator that you could fly. I think of it every time I get in an elevator now.

I mean.....Burritos pretty much are rolled up tacos lol You typically fill them with the same things...One is just rolled in a large tortilla lol

When I was in middle school there was a rumor that BBQ potato chips had either spider eggs or bat poop in it, I can't remember which, but to this day I still can't eat BBQ chips because it grosses me out LOL

Mutant13

I knew a girl in school who thought that AD , as in 2013 A.D meant After Dinosaurs.

I used to think that eating toast crust would give me ringlets.
It doesn't work

I believed up until last month that the song "Who let the dogs out?" was about actual dogs and not the less attractive girls in a club. I think a decent part of my childhood disintegrated with that knowledge.

Also, my mum told me that when she was little, her sisters told her that she was found under the hedge in the back garden, and she wasn't actually one of them, but my Nanna was too nice to say anything or leave her out there.

I used to believe that in Wheel of Fortune that the clapping controlled the wheel spinning. Until a very embarassing age...

I don't want to piss anyone off so I edited this like a champ. Um....

My dad convinced me that Prince Charles could fly/hover because his ears stick out. When I questioned this he explained HRH could only lift himself a few inches off the ground, but that was still flying.
