Things you thought wrong as a kid.

[Jolly Swagman]

I thought wind and the movement of clouds was due to the planets rotation.

It makes sense.

[Drill Sergeant]

I use to think that there was a god.

[Jehannum]

I thought my grandparents worked in the steel pole of a pub sign.

 

I had pointed to the pub sign and asked my mom what it was. She said it was where my grandparents worked. She thought I meant the pub; I actually meant the sign.

 

So I imagined them shrinking and going through a little door at the bottom. In my mind the pole had various levels inside, and a lift from floor to floor.

I thought eating butter would give me worms so mom told me.

 

turns out she just didn't want me to be the fat kid in school.

That show was the sh*t.

Anyone remember that other one that used to be on around that time where there were these kids/teenagers who got transported to some weird world that was kinda medieval but they had occasional pieces of advanced technology (I spose it was kinda steam pinkish). They used to fight having duels these metal things strapped to their arms which they would use to shoot these balls of electricity. I think I remember flying boats or someghing similar that the bad dudes/ rulers of the land used to get around.

I know what you're talking about but for the life of me can't remember the name..

I did a Google searched "kids show 90's, teleported to world, flying boats". As vague as that search was the first result was spot on- "Spellbinder".

From 1995, Australian / Polish (sounds like a weird combo but the Spellbinder world scenes were filmed there where as the our world scenes were filmed in oz). Also got show in the uk and us

That an actual Fairy collected your Teeth.

I don't think I actually ever thought the tooth fairy was real. I got into the Santa till I was six or so though. My oldies were pretty good with the Santa thing, leaving foot prints where the reindeer had landed, carrots with bite marks out of them and bits of white "beard fluff" around for when I woke up Christmas morning. They got me especially good when we were at my aunties till late one Christmas eve. You know how on top of mountains they have those red flashing lights so planes don't hit them? My parents pointed it out to me saying that is better get to sleep as soon as we got home cause it was Roldolf nose and Santa was on his way. Edited September 18, 2015 by Jolly Swagman

[Cutter De Blanc]

I used to think when they said "don't drink and drive" they meant don't drink ANYTHING while driving

[SpooferJahk]

Used to think that upgrading an operating system on a computer automatically makes it more powerful. Ah the times before I learned about computers...

[Jolly Swagman]

Now you say that I thought the same.

'Dad just had a lemon squash and now he's driving us home? He's a bad man.'

[slimeball supreme]

I once caught my dad watching some soap opera with mom when I was eight or nine, and came to the conclusion afterwards that some weird people smoke garden weeds for some reason.

[ten-a-penny]

Back when I was a little kid I had to do a surgery on my left hind - but I wouldn't state the reasons where however.

 

After the surgery, at one point I though that EVERYONE will go through a surgery at one point of their childhood life.

[sammystarock]

I thought that life would be fun.

[drifter.]

-I thought women looked exactly like Barbie dolls when naked. ( breasts not having nipples, etc.)

 

- thought I would never try weed, and told myself I'm gonna stay sober forever.

[Arachne]

I used to think that every game,cartoon,other stuff came from brazil,I WAS SO DISSAPOINTED WHEN I FIGURED OUT THAT WE ONLY HAVE SOAP OPERAS AND SOCCER STUFF

[ProKiller93]

I thought Wrestling was real...

[Jolly Swagman]

After I saw Young Einstein at the drive through I legit thought Albert Einstein was born in Tasmania and invented both beer and the electric guitar. For years before I worked it out

 

 

[Crokey]

I always thought you got a bag of sugar with a can of Coke that had Sugar Free on it....

 

Today was a bad day.

That several meant exactly seven of something.

[Jolly Swagman]

That several meant exactly seven of something.

I reckon I thought that till I was in my mid-teens. I wasn't alone either. I remember in year ten or so the whole class arguing with the teacher who tried to tell us otherwise. Not too many smart c*nts where I live.

[M22]

When i was little, i used to think everytime i was itchy, i had little creatures biting on the inside of my skin. Yep i thought of some pretty weird sh*t.

[Trillest]

When I was really young I thought that "masturbating" was another word for "pooping". So I walked into the bathroom while my dad was on the toliet and asked him "Are you masturbating?". Let's just say that turned into an incredibly awkward situation very quickly.

[Testarossa]

I used to think the numbers on the speedometer were the car's actual top speed.

I used to think that the events in movies were 100% real. I would get completely mindf*cked when the same performer was in multiple films

[thebreak]

Some misconceptions from watching period dramas led me to believe people in the old days wore prisoner or convict clothes underneath their regular, daily clothes, so when they were arrested they just took off whatever they wore and went straight to jail.

[gtafan2u]

I thought all the persons are good in this world @5 years. But now I knows that no one will be good to you if you are not going to come needy for them.

[Sunrise Driver]

I thought the Earth was really 2000 years old.
