    Until I was about 15 I thought weight was predetermined like height. I had no idea that what you ate affected what you weigh.:embarassed:

  • I believed that my grandfather could actually disconnect the top part of his thumb from the bottom. He did that trick so well! I also though he was getting rich from pulling quarters out of my ear.

    Until college, I used to see cooking shows on TV and think - do they tell you what ingredients you'll need for the next week? How else would people be able to follow along and cook with them if they don't have everything all set out? And what if you didn't have a TV near the kitchen? It never occurred to me that you could just write it down.....
  • That doing a certain thing would make you go blind. eeek.gif

    Thankfully it only gives you bad eyesight and needing glasses. :embarassed:

    Some things are worth wearing glasses.

    Apparently, I listened to my dad who told me Jello was alive and thats why it shook when you tried to eat it. My parents tell me I used to scream and cry whenever they put a spoon of it near my face. :embarassed: :laugh:

    hahahaha thats horrible
  • I believed babies were made by peeing on a girl.

    Glad that one was a myth!

    My step dad told me olives were bugs so I'd eat them.

    the fact that that made you eat them makes wish i hung out with you then. You would have been the cool girl in my book.

    My mom told me that my stuffed animals had feelings and i believe her. I treated those things better then my pets.
  • One night, I happened to wake up at the same time I was rolling away from the wall. So I thought when you were dreaming, you went into the walls of your house. XD

    I believed that pubic hair was only curly if you got it permed.
  • My boys thought babies came out of butts until they got trapped in the hospital room while I was giving birth to their sister they were stuck at the foot of the bed because she just kinda slipped out, my boys were in a sick sort of awe and disgust/ shock " Mommy she came out of there" pointing to their own crotches. We had to redo the talk were they had to tell me how babies came,lol.

    When I was little I saw a commercial for these markers that are supposed to make whatever you draw look 3D. The commercial was a cartoon where whatever the kids drew would come to life including a cheetah. I HAD to get those markers because, you see, cheetahs were my favorite animal and I believed that if I got these special markers and drew a cheetah that I would then have my own live pet cheetah.

    BOY was I pissed when I finally got those dam markers!

    My older sister told me that a dogs tongue and it's tail were attached-thus if you pulled it's tail the tongue would get shorter and if you pulled it's tongue the tail would get shorter. Pulling the tail always seemed to work cuz the dog would close it's mouth to growl....pulling the tongue got me bit a lot.

    I used to think that little men lived in the stoplights and they had radios to call one another when it was time to change the light.

    I called rail road crossings and pedestrian crossings "X'ings" not crossings not putting the X and CROSS together.... Rather embarrassing when walking with my high school gf (now wife, go figure she likes the dummies) pointed it out to me during a discussion as we walked to school...
  • I was five years old and I saw Michael Jackson on television and I couldn't figure out his gender. I asked my mom and she told that he was a he and that he was gay. :huh: Not sure why she did that and I was really confused when I saw him with Lisa Marie Presley.
    When I was four I believed the devil lived in the ground and I freaked out when my dad was gardening. I nearly broke the sliding glass door trying to stop him.

    That the bottoms of cats paw were naturally protected against lightening strikes. My dad was tired of me freaking out that the cats would get electrocuted during thunder storms, so he made that little diddy up. Sadly I believed it into my 20's.
