stupid things you thought when you were a kid

[yoko*]

When I was young I used to leave old steamed milk in my room for days before cleaning it up. One time I glanced over at my old steamed milk and noticed that it turn into a white pudding like texture... so I thought that maybe that was how pudding was made (leaving steamed milk out for a few days). So I actually scooped some up and ate it..

I had diarrhea that evening.

the end.

- i used to think babies were born out of our mouths

-i used to think that my property was canada

- i used to always think that someone was behind me .. i would be playing, laughing, and running around outside, then all of a sudden freeze and think "omg!somethings behind me!" and scream my head off
i would do that in the middle of the night too.. i'd get out of bed to run to my parents room and as soon as i stepped out of my door i thought that somone crawled through my window and was standing behind me.. so i'd freeze scream bloody murder... imgaine waking up to that every night..


- i used to think that people on tv could see in to the house..i remember i hid around the corner cause i thought the news anchor man could see me getting changed into my pj's

i also thought that people could watch me and my family, like i watched people on tv.. the cameras were just hidden so i couldn't see them.

- i also used to think that people hid underground at intersections to control the lights.

I used to jump from my doorway to my bed at night so that the monster under my bed didn't grab my ankles and suck me under.

At least once a night a do an inspection in the house because I am convinced someone has dropped down or crawled up to get me. (I live on the 19th floor) I was in a home invasion once, it has scarred me forever.

- I swallowed a button when I was a kid and I thought I was going to die, even after my parents convinced me many times I wasn't.
- I think my sister swallowed some watermellon seeds and thought a watermellon plant was going to grow inside her stomache.
- I also used to think that maybe, I was the only person alive and everyone else was just a reality constructed by god and he was just watching me. As Mugsy and Rawb posted earlier, truman show type stuff except instead of TV it was god who was watching my every action. I used to spend hours thinking about how, what if everyone I was talking to was a none person but just an avatar or maybe a mindless homunculus that replayed whatever god wanted to say to me. Like he was acting through everyone I was interacting with. So for a while I used to wonder if anyone was really processing thoughts like I was. I used to think about this a lot, and it was always weird cause I'd never be able to know if people could think for themselves like I could. Hell, even if it was true, I'd never be able to know even now.
- Oh heh, and when I was really little I thought I was a philosopher king in my past life.

my sister thought I was an alien and tried to twist my head off when I was still an infant...

i used to think the dial tone was some one at the other end cuting the grass with a lawn mower ( dont know if the UK tone sound different from Canada)

(thanks to my mom) i used to think there was something under my bed that would grab me if i had any body part hanging over the edge or not under the covers. she used to tuck me in every night and about 10 minutes after make a really creepy noise and then poke her head in and tell me to stay in bed or the boogie man will get me. scared the shit outta me. but it was apparently to stop me from wandering into their room at night cause i was afraid of the dark and didnt like being alone.
i still cant have any body parts hanging over the side of the bed, it just feels creepy.

i used to think my dad could lift anything cause he was a dad and thats what dads could do.

- getting frustrated with the long, protracted winters in Southern Onterrible, I just could _not_ understand why everyone just didn't go out with hairdryers on their lawns to melt the snow, so that it would warm up...

- that everyone was fair, honest, sharing and responsible.
