iluvgeddy05 Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I used to think that the show 48 hours was actually 48 hours long and I remember thinking "how could someone watch for THAT long??". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostGirl Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I used to think that the steam/smoke rising from the smokestacks of the factory outside town made clouds. I mean, I thought that's where clouds came from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

librarian Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 If you slept with socks on overnight, your feet would rot. (I got that from my mom, though she doesn't recall ever saying that ) If you swallowed gum, your insides would all stick together I thought everyone on the radio played live, so if I was say in the car on a road trip and heard the same song twice in one day, I'd say "they sure waited a long time to play again. What did they do all day?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rushgoober Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I used to think that ponies were just baby horses, and that lambs and sheep were entirely different animals. Thanks to my wife for pointing both of those out to me. What can I say? I grew up in the suburbs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeddyRulz Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I used to think if I stepped on a crack I'd break my mother's back. I spent 1.5 years walking around all crazy, changing my natural gait mid-stride, trying to avoid the spaces between cement sidewalk slabs. (Sadly, this general superstitiousness lasted until I was about 33, though not the sidewalk thing.) I used to think the storage space in your car was a "glub compartment." I was still unsure if it was "glove" or "glub" until I was about twenty-four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I *kinda* thought the same thing... I thought that each song would get played on the stations in a certain order because if I heard a song on one channel and I switched to the other, it seemed like the same song was always on right after.

Sorta similar, I thought the people in the TV set would wait for me if I turned off the TV and left the room, turned it back on when I came back.

yaoi_myantidrug Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I thought everyone on the radio was playing live. Same with the tv. I wondered how everybody fit in the tv, and how the same song/show could be on different stations at the same time, but at a different place in the song. I thought if I ate seeds, a tree would grow inside me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Show Don't Tell Posted October 20, 2010 Share Posted October 20, 2010 I used to see those Dentyne Ice gum commercials and think that if I chewed it then I would be able to freeze things with my icy breath. I was sadly disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you'll like these ones: I thought our alphabet was determined by very old Englishmen, huddled in a circle, debating on what the letters should be. "What do you say old chap? Does the letter 'A' sound good as the starting letter?" "Oh yes, Charles Winston the third of Counterberry Court, that does sound grand!" "What should come next say you Sir Aldous of Numberhood?" "I say, I do rather fancy the sound of 'B'!" Also, I thought our moms interviewed elderly ladies and that's how we got our grandmothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's awesome As for the bands playing live on the radio I had no idea so many people thought that. It never once crossed my mind. Playing on TV I thought was live but never the radio. I used to think that a man got a women pregnant by kissing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
