    That when I grew up, I'd turn into a boy (I was always surrounded by boys...my brothers, all my cousins, all the kids on my block...).

    While I was growing up in a military family, I thought everyone had free healthcare, prescriptions. Because why wouldn't you if you were sick?

    My mom did such a poor job explaining the facts of life to me, that when she was done, I thought that the sperm "swam" across the sheets from the man into the woman, and that was why girls got pregnant if they "went to bed" with or "slept with" a guy.

    My parents still seem to think that, They refer to all cats as "she" and all dogs as "he". Drives me crazy because both my cats are male and the 3 dogs they have are female.

    That CAMPING WORLD was an actual place to go to for indoor camping.

    That the government would never lie to us.

    My dad told me farting was a language and everytime he does it, we should try to listen to what's being conveyed.

    I was born in Tacoma

    and I've always been a bit of a nut.


    So I thought that I had dropped from space, into the space needle, and then into my mothers stomach.

    Yep. Thought this for years.

    That cotton candy dissolved overnight.


    (Went to a carnival when I was 6 and got cotton candy, didn't eat it all. Left it on the kitchen counter and in the morning it was just an empty bag. My sibs told me it dissolves. I believed that well into my late 20s.)

    I had a very similar problem growing up. My dad is a pastor and we lived in the church parsonage. AKA, we didn't have to pay bills/taxes any of that because my dad's salary is based with that money already removed, I had no idea that people had to pay rent/mortgage/electric/water bills until I was in middle school...

    I thought dogs were the boys and cats were the girls.

    I thought that football players walked around with their shoulders hunched up.

    I thought that the "No Littering, $100 Fine" signs on the side of the road meant that you weren't allowed to litter, but if you wanted to throw a 100 dollar bill out the window, that would be okay, and workers wouldn't mind having to clean that up.
