A lot of insane things, a few of which are:
- Vampires, and that they could survive in daylight if they were wearing sunglasses
- Bruce Lee died from eating a poisoned chocolate chip cookie (the poison was in a green chocolate chip)
- Electricity was generated by power stations being hit by lightning and storing the electricity in giant batteries which ran a city's power supply
- Buck Rogers was set in the same universe as Star Wars
- Poison was green and so were vegetables, therefore vegetables were poisonous

That false teeth came from dead people. I couldn’t look an old person in the face without being grossed out and wondering whose teeth they were sporting.

I used to be a liberal, then I grew up and abandoned such insane ideas.

You were part of a political party when you were a kid?
Thats the insane part.

What's weird about having political opinions as a kid? Did you grow up with a hermit or something?

[frustratemyself]

That life would be easier and less complicated when I grew up

Mostly the fact that politics tend to be the antithesis of enjoyment for a child.

So? Religion is too, but me and my classmates got into fights about it(and politics) all the time. Though half of us were probably just thoughtlessly regurgitating our parent's views.

I used to believe in a life after love.

That having my foot dangle over my bed without being covered by a blanket would get it eaten.

I still make sure my feet are safely wrapped in the blankets as a habit today, regardless of how hot it is in my bedroom.

- That making friends is easy, yeah right.
- Being a nice person is important. Now, I'm an **** when I feel like it.
- I used to believe that life is fair.
- I used to be an optimist.

Same. I know some bastard monster has a foot fetish.

as a kid i used to believe that good would always triumph over evil, and that even when evil won, good would eventually right what was wronged. I used to believe time told no lies and you couldnt hide the truth forever.

I used to believe when the time came to take a stand, good people would rise up and fight. I used to believe in heroes. I used to believe as long as you were a good person, misfortune would never befall you, and if it did, you would always make it through to the other side.

I used to believe that the world was fair, that is was ran by good people who did good things so that everybody around them could be happy. I used to believe if you worked hard and persevered, you could be anything in life.

I wish I could still believe in all that.

I used to believe:
- in the existence of god, afterlife, etc.
- that life is fair
- that leaders are altruistic
- that a woman will become pregnant just by getting kissed by a man

[Gabriel S.]

The craziest things I believed in?


The god of Abraham.

Santa Claus.

Saint Nicholas (celebrated on the 6th of december).

The Tooth Fairy.

Dragons. Actually "Balaur" or "Balauri" in Romanian. Not really a dragon as much as a dragon-like creature as I imagined it.

Dwarves. In the mythical sense. Back then there was no distinction between the dwarves in the stories I heard and Santa's little helpers. Elf=dwarf. It probably didn't help that there was a guy with dwarfism living in a block next to mine. Every time I saw him my faith in Santa was renewed.

And really all of these things I "knew". Belief and knowledge was the same thing back then. Saying that I believed in Santa was like saying I knew that Santa existed.

I blame my parents.



PS: I omitted the sexual related stuff.

Oh, I have even a better one in the same vein, but it's to dirty to say here.

I believed that everyone was speaking the same language as me. Wich led to this fateful day when I learned that it wasn't true. But I couldn't let it go ! I found it so stupid that the world would bother to use different languages, so I kept asking everyone. I even asked a priest what was god's language, thinking it would probably be the right one for everyone. Thinking back, it was really funny to see him struggling.

I thought that when the TV was off, the whole thing was stopped, every show was on stand by and of course, that they restarted just for me when I turned the TV on. And that for every TV, there was a whole world on stand by, waiting for people to turn it on.
A sad day indeed when my mom told me that the show I wanted to see was already over.

O man I did too! I actually learned that it doesn't from spongebob though. "Their not gonna hold the show while you laze around"

Speaking of TV, I thought that the History channel was about history. Well, that's not crazy. But the channel is.

[Chuvvy]

Not really a belief, more of a misunderstanding, but, I used to think hand made literally meant you made something by hand. Meaning, no tolls, you just used friction to carve the wood, I had a handmade bed, I can remember moving my hand back and forth across it trying to wrap my head around how long it would take to make something "by hand".

I used to believe that my Grandad was the creator of Postman Pat and Rosie & Jim, they both shared the same name John Cunliffe.

When my Grandad died, i used to believe he was the brightest star in the sky and that he was watching over me. I used to think one day he would come down and take me away to be with him like in The Little Match Girl story.

I also believed i had seen a Fairy, i was looking out my door and i saw a light fly across the garden no more than a few feet away. I imagine what i really saw was a Glow-worm but at the time i was convinced it was a fairy.

[Tup3x]

I used to think that there was an animal called "genuine" and you probably get the idea (genuine leather...).
