This might be fun. Discuss the stupid things you thought as a kid.

I thought elbow grease was something you actually bought. (unamused)

I thought the clown from the movie "IT" was gonna come out of the shower drain whenever I pee'd with my back to the shower. I was ready to whoop that ass if he ever came out, tho!

When I was like 3 or 4, I used to think the people on tv were teeny-tiny people b/c they looked so small. (rofl)

I used to think that all you had to do to drive a car was move the wheel back and forth...

I thought distilled water at the super market meant nobody touched it until you bought it.

I can't think of any right now, but I remember my wife used to wonder what a witchit stand was.. Because in the pledge of allegiance she would always say "for witchit stands"

Bahahaha..


I used to plug all the drains whenever I was in the bathroom.. That movie scared the s*** outta me..

Ya, I watched it when I was 7. And I had to look over my shoulder to keep an eye on the shower drain while I pee'd. I just got over the fear last year!! :'(

Also, thought that Blair Witch movie was real. Scared the Crap put of me. getting out of the house at night was tough.

really believed that if i was in the bathroom with the lights out and said "bloody mary" three times that she/it would appear.

Not me, but my Dad...when he was little, he thought 'venetian blinds' were a group of people from Italy that couldn't see...

 

[genericuser]

reminds me of the mel brooks joke from history of the world.



How do you make a venetian blind? *Poke*

I had a friend that used to think the trees would run along side her car when she and her family went on vacation. (boom07)

I used to think buffaloes actually had wings, and that they were close to extinction because people kept eating their wings. Especially when you could order them in increments of 30. That's 15 buffaloes!

I thought that both eggs and mayo were dairy products because, like milk, they are white.
