Stupid things you believed as a kid

Up until about kindergarten, I believed people used to live in black and white. Yeah, it's not exactly a question that pops up naturally and parents/adults can't be blamed for not thinking about this one.
I believed the furry folks and mechatronics at the fun fair to be real, deformed and angry live animals up until about age three or so. It was quite a relieve when I figured it out, as that stuff was super creepy. Like some evil monkey that popped out of some box that was far too small to hide a whole monkey in it.
Oh, and I still believe in God. I know he does not exist, I ain't stupid. But I know very well that the idea of God exists, and in my little bubble of multicultural, multi-faceted life experiences, God is of prime importance, especially when interacting with children from different cultures/religions/cults... and their parents. I just find God to be much more helpful and efficient than Santa Che, Saint Marx or Papa Smurf Engels.
If it weren't for the generally accepted notion of God, we'd be bashing each others heads in, and it wouldn't even be a proper survival of the fittest, it would be survival of the most ferocious.
That does not cover the aspect of religious fantards that kill and hate in the name of their respective, superiour God, mind you.

Oh my God, me too!Phasmal said:
I also believed my sister invented the word 'shit', because she was the first person I heard say it.
For the longest time, even some months after sex-ed toward the end of Elementary school, I thought babies were born out of a woman's butthole.
I was a dumb child.

I thought The Moon was just another Earth and that every Earth only had one country so if you wanted to go somewhere you had to travel by space ship
That night would never end until I fell asleep.
And as of right now its only a couple of hours until dawn that I'm typing this.

Pretty much anything you had a mind to tell me
along with:-
It was possible to become a power Ranger.
Thomas the Tank's island home (Sodor or something) was a real place where sentient trains were developed.
I was the world's greatest child artist.
I was special (I'm not and no neither are you).

If you were going to Antarctica you had to wear suction cups on your feet or you'd fall into space. Also that the world was a hollow sphere of water and when you were under the ocean, you were inside the Earth. Both at age 4. I also wanted to be a tiger when I grew up.
I used to think that credit cards were basically free money. Although, in fairness, credit cards are pretty damn complicated, and I'm sure most adults don't really understand how they work, which is a bit scary considering how many of these people probably use them on a regular basis.
When i looked at 16/17 year olds i always assumed they were proper "grown ups", now im 20 and i still feel like a kid in alot of ways, albeit one with a flowing lustrous beard

Er well fuck thats a new diagnosis for me! Thanks a lot!
Also you might want to add some more words (like a full definition of solipsism) to your posts so that the mods dont come after you.[/quote]
Thanks, the mods are a bit totalitarian in that respect. I'll put it in now.
"Solipsism is the philosophical idea that only one's own mind is sure to exist."
Solipsism isn't an inherently stupid idea but it is massively pointless.
