Also that flies could see into the future, thus making them impossible to swat. It made perfect sense!

House flies' nervous systems have an extremely high "processing" power, allowing them to have millisecond-level reaction times. And I imagine it makes their 24-hour life expectancy seem a bit longer :P

I thought I could make rain stop by concentrating hard enough. In truth this just meant, that I stayed focus for sooo long, that rain eventually passed.

*Shoots DominusVita in the knee with an arrow for making the joke*

Anyone who makes the joke will from now on experience it first hand.

I believed once that when a producer that had made a movie shared the shame name as mine, equaled that it was I who had produced the movie.

The ten commandments, now that was a mind f*ck for a ten yr old. Not a bit of nuance, just black and white, right or wrong, heaven or hell. Thinking back, I realize how deviously smart the ancients were. All of human morality condensed into ten easy steps. That's when I was introduced to thought crime. Wonderful concept.

Everything on earth is built upon the bones of the dead. The only reason we have "smart" stuff now was due to the intelligence of those that came before us.

Then again, we inherit a lot of their problems too. 

Oh yes, and before you hate on the Ten Commandments, you may want to acknowledge that several of them have direct parallels in our law and/or in the "unwritten laws" of expected social conduct.

I believe this merits an explanation.


Haha!  No, it really doesn't.

That every little thing I did was a sin. I was raised religious and I terrified myself of burning in hell. So even if I said one little white lie, I ended up spending like ten minutes praying for forgiveness over telling someone they actually looked good in their jeans.

Oh yeah, and one year I figured that if I stayed up all night, I could see Santa Claus flying through my neighborhood, but sometime around 2 AM I somehow managed to convince myself that he would try to murder me if he was seen and almost lost my [Buy some apples!]

I'm trying to think of some. I never really believed in mythical creatures like the tooth fairy or Santa Claus though I acted like I did for the obvious benefits. All I can really think of are Scientiffic inaccuracies that my parents told me as a child because there was no internet for me to look it up at the time. I also Pretended to have an imaginary friend because I say all the kids on tv say they had one and I thought that it was normal and that not having one would mean there was something wrong with me.

I did have part of a slinky once , I straighten it though

No, it was the plethera of sitcoms of the 80s-90s it seemed all the kid had one at one point and the doctors told the parents it was normal. Who was I to disagree with the people who play a doctors on TV.

Mine is just flat out insane now that I'm an adult but I used to really think I was some sort of camera for the universe. Jeez I don't know how to explain this. I thought that I had this special POV that no one else had and that anything i did or saw mattered..... I thought that everyone was going to see everything through my eyes or something..... Jeez it sounds very egotistical but as a kid it just confused me more than anything else.

That everyone in the world was dead and I was surrounded by ghosts of the dead. (Yeah, not the best idea since I tried to avoid everyone)

Edit- Also I had an imaginery friend when I was like 5.
