Strange things you once believed were true.

OK, I'll kick off. When I was about 5 I was absolutely convinced that if I rubbed some plastic on the hot water tap I would be able to fly. Seriously.

Another one about the same age, I thought that if I could get hold of a watch and turn the dials back that time would go back.

My mum could tell if I was lying by feeling to see if my nose was soft

and death from internal bleeding?

 

[twistedlegato]

The Power Rangers were cool

 

[BigPrince]

I was told that my mom does not age. She remained 25 every birthday. I believed this far longer then I should of.

 

[someguy]

When I was 6 or 7, I thought that if you dug beneath the surface of the Earth just a few feet, you would hit a very hot, thin layer of sheet metal, and beyond that were the burning fires of Hell.

Don't ask.

and death from internal bleeding?

That has brought back my own fear of the malleable material, I used to think that it would, if swallowed, end up in my hand and I could visualise my hand disected with the chewy in little compartments.

 

[Kardashian]

That Mother always knows best.

Yeah. Right.

Oh, and respect your elders.

 

[katie ta achoo]

If I kept making that face, it'd stick that way.

 

[BigPrince]

If I kept making that face, it'd stick that way.

I remember that one.

 

[freebooter]

I used to believe in a god that is like a really touchy, vengeful Santa Claus who needs constant flattery.

 

[ghall]

When I was 3, I seriously thought that there were people in the TV, and VHS tapes told them to do stuff. I'd spontanously rewind the tape, just to screw with em'.

when i was around 6-7 my older cousin told me that the reason girls used pads was because in case they laughed too hard and peed their pants it would not show, and i belived her until i was around 10 or so...

So, what happens if guys laugh to hard? There's nothing to protect them from embarrassment.

Oh I forgot another one:
I once believed Macs sucked.

 

[nickster9224]

[Hummer]

I used to think that when you flushed a toilet on an airplane, the waste would fall to earth.

I used to think that when you flushed a toilet on an airplane, the waste would fall to earth.

Haha, me too.

I think I believe in more things now than I did when I was a child. Which is a bit of a turn around!

 

[grahamtearne]

[Daveway]

I was of frogs.

Pee = warts. ewww

I've since learned this is not true.

 

[Zwhaler]

That the letter "W" was invented in the early 1950's. Wow....
