As the title says. What are somethings you thought as a kid, but now know them to be false. I used to think that all traffic lights were controlled by a single person watching cameras. I believed if I tried hard enough I could do a Kamehameha wave. Still haven't done one yet. When I heard thunder I thought it was a T-rex. After seeing the movie twister I though every cloud was a tornado. I was a dumb kid what can I say Anyone else care to share. -- Sent from my Palm Pre using Forums
when i was a kid, i thought Gushers fruit snacks would actually turn your head into a fruit. they scared me so much ahaha
That's...nice. When I was a little filly I used to think that the big black security "bubble" cameras on the ceilings of stores had actual people inside them that would spy on you. Also, at night when walking through my creepy hallways I'd always run to my room thinking something was chasing me. Until I was about 8, I would always have to close the curtains in my bathroom at night before I brushed my teeth because I was afraid someone was watching me. ....Sudden realization.... I was a paranoid as a kid. Everything makes sense now!
When I was a kid I used to believe that there really was a man in the moon XD. Also I thought that this creepy monster came into my room and messed with my bed During the night while I was asleep because when I fell asleep I would wake up and my covers and pillows would be all over the place. I also thought the moon was made of cheese. XD
When I was a little kid, I never enjoyed the dark. I always thought there were evil-demonic creatures outside or in the woods cause my imagination would run outta control and sometimes I would see a face coming at me and I would shut the door and hide under my covers and scream into the pillow. I never really thought of of most things were scary but when it was dark out, I would think zombies were outside, hence that i played resident evil at a young age and that was the last time i really did. I don't enjoy horror stuff. Makes me think of all the bad memories i had in the past. I always think of pretty things and cute things...never disturbing or horrid stuff. Games like Doom and Resident evil got me scared of dark for that, who knows whats out there in the darkness and Hell.
I liked the dark. But I though window blinds were used to stop people from looking in, not to block the sun. I used to cover my windows with extra blankets and stuff to make sure they couldn't see me. I also thought the bus cameras were xray. I thought they could see through the seats. -- Sent from my Palm Pre using Forums
I can't really recall alot of thoughts from my youth. There were alot of things I used to believe but now I know they're not true. Just can't remember what :S
I remember thinking my dad was the black Power Ranger, and that when I turned 11, I'd get an acceptance letter from Hogwarts. I had a bit of an imagination, apparently.
I used to think that the ceiling light in my bedroom was evil and Winnie the Pooh was in it, trying to suck me up.
I used to believe that, some day, Gardevoir would turn me into a charmander and drag me to the world of Pokemon. T'was the cursed bloomin' Mystery Dungeon! I wanted it to happen so bad though. I still kinda do.
I also thought that if you got too close to the drain in the shower a hand would come out and take you away, also I thought if you flushed the toilet while still on it it would suck you in and eat you I was scared of bathrooms when I was little.
Don't read this thread at 3:18 in the morning. Don't. Do. It. I used to think Cops knew everybody's name. I used to think My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic was for girls Shoot. I used to have so many crazy thoughts from when I was in Kindergarten-Second Grade. Ah well, I'll post 'em as I remember them.
After watching Arachnophobia, any dark thing on my wall scared the **** out of me. I still have arachnophobia as a result of the dangerous breed of Black Widows having been far too common where I lived in California.
I used to think pokemon were real. I found a curled-up leaf once and decided it was a metapod. Same for digimon, and all kinds of self made-up fantasy worlds. I didn't play a lot with other kids, except for ones I could drag along in my stories and worlds. Yet deep within I guess I knew it wasn't real. I also thought I could talk to rabbits. And that I could talk to the sea and order him to do stuff, like flooding the beach. And that there were people inside the white trails airplanes leave behind. And that the queen of Holland knows everything. And that I could build a bridge-system from my treehouse that would connect all the places in the world.
You have an awesome imagination as a kid. Me, I just thought people watched me all the time. Like through traffic lights. -- Sent from my Palm Pre using Forums
I used to think MLP would always be lame, how wrong I was:Trollestia:. I used to think I would be an inventor and invent dimensional travel so that I could visit my favorite fictional characters. In fact, I am still wishing I could. I used to be afraid of hell, despite my parents being atheist, then I realized it did not make sense for me to even believe in hell and now I am afraid of the void instead.
I used to believe I'd get some serious food poisoning if I eat something not normal (like green chips or blackened bananas) and that if I ran just fast enough, I could be under my covers before the light turned off... I just wasn't fast enough...
