Hey Pandas, What Is The Craziest Thing You Thought Or Believed As A Kid? (Closed)

I thought you squeezed out elbow grease

I used to think that whenever a woman wanted children, if she just thought about it really hard or wanted them had enough, within a few days, she'd be pregnant. I also thought it came out of her belly button. I was really scared of just thinking about the words, "I want a baby", so I tried my hardest never to think of that until I was old enough to have children. XD

I thought that there was a secret door in my school's bathroom and if you touch the tiles correctly it would reveal a secret door ha ha me 😋 i am 16 now thought that since like when i was in 3rd grade

i used to never ever use or touch bug spray because i believed that when you use it you suck up the souls and they are stored in the bottle. Why? The bug spray bottle had a picture of a dead bug with its soul coming out. i believed this for pretty long

I thought that my dad cut the grass with scissors...

I used to believe that if you sat on the toilet too long, you would grow warts on your butt.

When I was younger, about 11, I really thought that the Chick-fil-a logo was a smiley face with a weird horn and swirl around it. I also thought that the Washington state Cougars sign was a smiling fish, and I still view those things like I did at first glance, even though I know what it actually is now. Well, at least it was all smiles.

I believed ventriloquists actually spoke with there belly. So when we saw someone drinking a glass of milk while speaking during his act, I didn't think much of it.

I have a hearing impairment since I was a kid, and so I had a lot of tinnitus. I thought everyone knows that silence had a sound, right up to middle school actually. I use to do show and tell/science projects to explain to everyone why or how. Eventually i figured out it was just tinnitus.

I thought push pins were called pokees. Like Poke-Eeys. See my mom is Arab and in Arabic the letter P isn’t a sound so it always came out as bush bins. We didn’t know what bush bins were, so my mom used pokees or bokees, b/c, ya know, they poke. So imagine my teachers reaction when I told her with a straight face that I found a pokee on the ground. One of the most embarrassing things of my life

When I was young, my cousin had us believing that he was spiderman and had the power to give us superpowers. He made us run his errands instead and fooled us for months. Evil guy..

I used to think that I was older than my older brother... just coz I was born in September and he, in December.
He also told me that when we both were younger I was older than him but I didn't eat vegetables so he outgrew me.
Go figure out.

After getting the where do babies come from speech when I was young, my mother was very specific in a couple areas. My little mind heard intercourse and thought it had something to do with goofy golf. Also, I believed that mommy's and daddy's got pregnant when they were asleep because the parts would wake on their own and do the deed, maybe while they were cuddled close sleeping. Like a sneaky 🐍

when i was 5-6 ish i seriously thought that when someone died, all you had to do to make them alive again was open their eyes, and boom, they would be alive again. I used to cover my ears with my blanket at night because i thought that monsters would come and bite my ears off if i didn't cover them. I also used to be really scared of those microfibre green dusting cloths with bumps on them because i thought they were moving and they were tentacles

As a toddler I thought pine cones are small animals or insects and didn't want to walk over them. I started screaming and had to be carried over forrest tracks covered in pine.

When I was little I was scared of the dark. I thought that if I got up at night and reached over the side of my bed over the "void" that it would swallow my arm up. And if I didn't turn my light on before I touched the ground the "void" would swallow my feet! I thought the presidents were always amazing. *cough* not.

Icecream truck? No... That's the "Music Truck"

This one is quite short and I may do another but when I was very little I was scared of those new/blooming pinecones. I thought I could get sucked into them!

I thought horses were the escape to all of life’s problems and now I’m older I realised that couldn’t have truer.

Ok so I know this is weird but I used to think that my dad changed the stoplights. He always told me he did too, so that made me believe even more. I remember one night after going out somewhere, he stoped at a stoplight turned to me and said “watch this, I’m going to make the light change!” He waited a few seconds the said “Green!” and the light turned green. I didn’t realize then that he just waited for the countdown. This went on for a few years until I asked him again and he denied ever doing this!
