Stupid things you thought as kids.

Well when you were little I'm sure you believe or thought a bunch of things either your parents told you or you just assumed.

So, what were they?

As for me, my parents always told me that if I didn't listen to them the "kid patrol" would come and take them away, and I'd have to live in a foster home. It scared me into doing basically anything.

I also just assumed that if I was in a car, held my hand out the window and grabbed something, one of three things would happen:

1. I'd stop the car.
2. Id pull the thing out of the ground and take it with me.
3. My arm would stretch up to like 70 feet and then I'd let go and it would come back to normal.

I was a pretty retarded kid.

So, Newgrounds, what ridiculous things did you believe as a kid?


You have to know your name.

When I was little, and people would die in tv shows or movies I use to always think the movie makers went around asking people if they wanted to die, then they put them in the movie and killed them off. But Now I know its all a act lol.

for some reason I use to think that after takign a crap, a random hand/monster would come out and grab me. I used to flush the toilet and run. Also, I use to think that midgets were the first stage of babies, that like it the midget would disguise himself as a hamburger or something and the woman would eat him.

I was retarded too :(

I also used to think the world was more good than bad...

I though snow would be like cotton balls, and that the bank gave us all the $ we ever needed from a credit card (because i only saw the money come out of it and didn't understand the concept)

I used to believe in monsters that would inhabit dark places, like basements and stuff. Then at night time they would go and take over the city or something. Or just my house.

when i was little, i used to think that 1-10 in spanish was actually 1-10 in chinese

when i was 4 i thought that there was no number higher than 25 (the largest numbered money that i ever saw was the quarter assuming that a dollar was one and so was the penny)

That women didnt need male partners to have babies. I thought if a kid looked like his dad, it was just a coincidence.

- I thought that my dick is only for urinating (who's the sick fuck who didn't?).
- I thought Grapevines are evil.
- I thought cats never die (2 years for a cat to live in my backyard seemed like eternity).
- And All TV shows and movies are real, especially A-Team and The Bold and the Beautiful (People just live their life and appear on TV, somehow. That included the lead scenes).

Same here, I used to think that I could fly around, destroy planets, ect. I felt invincible.

I was also afraid of the dark, and whenever I got scred I would pretend that Goku, Vegeta and the others were my friends and would defend me. Take that, mummy in the closet! >:)

Ignorance truly is bliss.

That when people die, they're actually really sick and were buried until they gets better, after that their relatives will come to dig them out.

My parents used to tell me that.
