ReplyDeletei believed that on christmas eve, judah macabee came down the chimney and brought me presents. my two older brothers told me this, and they thought it was hiLARious to see little jewish girl me waking up and running downstairs. and when i told my hebrew school teacher about this, i was sent to the principal's to have a little chat. Good. Times. ;-)

ReplyDeleteHanukkah Harry
ReplyDeleteI thought that the clitoris was the vagina and that both pee and babies came out of there... Until around 7th grade when my cousin used a stuffed animal to teach me how to use tampons. Mind blown.

ReplyDeleteWhen I was like 5, I thought I had to water my boobs in the shower in order for them to grow.
ReplyDeletehappy-ever-afters

I thought the number 7 didn't exist.
ReplyDeleteMy brother made me believe if I washed my hair after I washed my body in the bath, all the dirt would get in my brain and I would die.

If you swallow gum, it stays in your intestines for 7 years.
ReplyDeleteIf you die in your dream, you die in real life.
Periods are awesome 'cause you turn into a beautiful teenage girl who goes to the pool with her boyfriend! (Thanks, Sassy magazine tampax ads!)
If you cut a slug in half, the other half will turn into another slug and you'll have two slugs. (May also work on worms.)
Remember those Haul's cough drop commercials where they showed the "vapor" in front of the person after they took one? I thought that really happened. lol
ReplyDelete@ MadamChef: I knew a girl in Grade 7 who literally had a ball of gum in her stomach because she was swallowing a couple pieces a day. Doctors told her to stop swallowing gum, and that it would take up to three months for the ball of gum to digest and pass.
ReplyDeleteI believed that two kids stole a spaceship and were stranded on the moon. I remember telling my Great Aunt Pearl this is what everyone was talking about in school and I didn't understand why it wasn't on the news (I was a news junkie even back then). I was in Grade 2 and we had watched the the moon landing that summer in 1969, which is what sparked this rumor. Aunt Pearl kept a straight face and asked lots of questions ;-)
I believed in karma. I was really stupid.
ReplyDeleteI believed Tony Orlando and Dawn, along with Donny and Marie Osmond lived inside my TV.

ReplyDeleteAnd that the rind of grapefruit was marshmallow, which HAD to be only reason grownups ate that awful fruit, to get to that marshmellow.
ReplyDeleteThat bad guys went away when the sun came up so if I got scared I would stay awake until sunrise then sleep like a baby. Oh and the thunder was God bowling thing too.
ReplyDeleteThat nuns worked at church's chicken.
ReplyDeleteThat if I were a good person, other people would be good to me.
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 5 or 6, we went to a movie theater nearby and the curtains had weird stains on them. My sister told me that's where Lincoln was shot and the stains were his blood! I totally believed her!
ReplyDeleteWhen I was 15 I thought oral sex was when a girl and a guy sat across a room from each other in chairs, and talked about sex. It wasn't until my very experienced army brat friend laughed hysterically at me and explained to my astonishment what it actually was. Don't even ask what I thought "being on top" meant.
ReplyDeleteI thought being an adult would be awesome...
ReplyDeleteI thought teachers were perfect until I asked my 3rd grade teacher how to spell a word and she said she had to look it up in the dictionary. Mind blown. I was a little depressed after that.
ReplyDeleteI thought if you tore the tag off a mattress, you would be arrested or something. My parents sold mattresses. When I got married I would not let my husband remove the tag. Yeah we got divorced.
ReplyDeleteAs a child, I was obsessed with bad things happening to me, like: spontaneous combustion, getting swallowed up by the earth when a giant chasm opened up where I was standing, that when I grew up I would have siamese twins, and being in an airplane crash over the ocean and getting eaten by sharks.
ReplyDeleteI thought clouds were called "clowns." Through this misunderstanding, I concluded that clowns lived behind the white fluffy things and the mean ones were responsible for storms.
ReplyDeleteCourtesy of the movie Splash, I decided that if I put enough salt in my bath and could hold my breath underwater for over a minute that I could turn into a mermaid.
I miss the days of thinking anything was possible :(

ReplyDeleteStepping on a crack would break mama's back. I still don't like to step on them. Habits.
ReplyDeleteI believed broccoli was baby trees.
Like every little kid out there, I loved chocolate milk and it was way more expensive that white milk. My mom told me it was too expensive because it came from special chocolate milk cows that were all brown with no other colours and very rare. I believed that until grade 5 - seems they forgot to tell me they were fake when they told me about santa clause, the easter bunny and the tooth fairy - mofos - lol
ReplyDeleteI believed I could fly like Mary Poppins, found out the hard way that was wrong. My aunt was babysitting me and told me if I stayed in the bathtub until all the bubbles left, there would be a pink elephant on the bottom of the tub. She was wrong, but she did get to make out with her boyfriend a bit longer. And finally, my grandpa told me when he was a little girl, he lived with the Native Americans. I still believe him.
ReplyDeleteI thought the pound sign on the phone automatically dialed the phone number you were thinking of in your head. I swear to God it worked until someone told me it couldn't.
ReplyDeleteThat it was my fault.
ReplyDeleteI thought everyone was good, and if I was a good girl, only good things would happen to me.
ReplyDeleteGuess we all know, that's terribly wrong.
That kissing meant moving your head around in wavy motions
ReplyDeleteDrivng meant turning a wheel round and round and side to side...
Summer lasted forever
People were kind and generally good...
And that my parents were super heros and would be young forever...
That babies came out when you pooped, but wouldn't be fully developed until you were old old enough. I remember shedding a couple of silent tears for the poop babies I was flushing. I was 4.
ReplyDeleteLove

ReplyDeleteI spent a lot of time worrying about how Santa was going to get into our house with no chimney. My mother was not very reassuring. Same for the Easter Bunny.
ReplyDeleteI realize when I was old enough that the closest thing to a chimney I had in my small apt was a heater against the wall, so Santa wasn't real.
ReplyDeleteI had a bit of OCD as a child and thought everything had to be in pairs because they were friends.. my shoes, pencils, forks, toothbrushes, clothing, anything. I'd HAVE to make sure everything had a friend. I was an only child dammit lol.
