25 Stupid Things You Believed As a Kid That Are Nearly Unbelievable

Комедия

Are there things you believed as an adolescent that you shake your head at today? Children have very active imaginations, and when they want to make sense of the world, it's amazing some of the things they can come up with.
For instance, some children believed that tiny people controlled the traffic lights, while others thought that the people they saw on T.V. could see them in real life.
As we get older, we put things into a more realistic perspective. We learn the difference between reality and fantasy.
What are some things you believed as a kid? Well, you likely weren't the only one who thought those things. Not quite sure? Then check out this list of 25 Stupid Things You Believed As a Kid That Are Nearly Unbelievable.

    Children think being an adult is great until they learn about bills every month electric, gas, cable bill, rent or mortgage payment, various taxes including income tax, sales tax, added taxes put on gasoline, property tax, drivers licenses cost, vehicle and it's registration cost. cost of house and car repair and replacement when beyond repair. Insurance cost for home and car. Liability insurance. Also how work is often more difficult than going to school and can lose job at any time.

    OK people, brace yourselves for this one. When I was really young, my aunt and uncle went out of town for a week and their 2 daughters, my cousins, spent the week at our place. While they were taking their baths, I happened to see them naked. I had never seen a female naked before, so I went to my dad and asked what happened to them down there? Thinking quick, he said Oh, they used to be just like you down there, but they used to lie and misbehave a lot. So one day their father, my uncle, decided they didn't deserve it anymore, and he cut it off. I turned around horrified, looking at my father and asked, so after it was cut off, he hit them between the legs with a hatchet!? Yes son, yes he did. After that, whenever I was around my uncle, I was always on my best behavior. I believed this for an embarrassingly long time, until the day my mother sat me down and explained things to me. My dad can be such a dick sometimes. He still laughs about it to this day.

    "they don't just randomly give you free money." Last month, a local bank ran a promotion where they replaced some 20s in their ATM with 50s. So if you went to withraw $40, there was a small chance of getting $70-$100 instead while only deducting $40 from your account.

    When I was really little (long before the “talk”) I used to think that if you went to hospital for operation and were really really good, they gave you a baby. A cousin, quite a bit older than I was in the hospital. She’s having an operation, I was told. Then she came home with a baby!!! I was an only child and really wanted a sibling. Imagine the disappointment when I had my tonsils out, was really, really good but didn’t get a baby 🙃.

    Having read Just a Summer Romance by Ann M.

To this day, I find regular people who aren't celebs to be the greatest thing since sliced bread because I felt like a nobody. Having a celebrity crush now has been really hard, especially since I've met the guy twice and am meeting him again next month!

She was due to play in a pantomime at a theatre where the box office was flooded with call over the next few days by people wanting to cancel their reservations saying "we only wanted to see her but now she has died". Perhaps these same people watch sports reruns to see if they actually score that near miss goal.

I stared for a noticeably long time before I pointed and shouted “It is you!!!” Lol there is something about seeing the big boss outside work that is unsettling to little warehouse workers like me. Luckily he’s a super nice guy and they know me around work as being super optimistic and peppy (and probably a little out there, but hell, it’s fun) and he’s a cool guy if you actually do your job. I happen to do my job very well. 😎 another time I didn’t realize he was there until I turned to swipe my card and he was behind me in line.

If I didn't get out of the bathroom in time a Nile crocodile would come out of the drain and eat me. 3. Kevin from Up lived in our neighborhood 4. Everything that happening on a TV happened in real life. (Which made me a very twisted child for watching Jurassic Park) 5. Our house was previously inhabited by pirates and it was my duty to find a magical pirate sword 6. I was an adult that got magically turned into a child by a wizard. 7. When you get married, you pretty much share a soul and are together forever and the kiss is where children come from.

    About #2.... I am from NL Canada. Before we became a Province of Canada, we were a colony of Britain and a country too for a while. Thousands of little fishing outports all around the coast. Our first Premier, after we became a Canadian province, established a program of centralization and resettlement whereby families were paid to move to "growth centres" and embrace a more modern lifestyle. Many families actually and literally did move their houses by putting them on barges tied to the sterns of fishing boats, and then towing the houses, by boat, across the bay to the new community. -- Love your lists, by the way.

As for the traffic light one, I didn't exactly think there were little people living inside the lights, but I did think it was done remotely. (Like I thought there was a hidden camera and someone SOMEWHERE I don't know where decided when to make a light green, or red.) For a while I thought those people were quite the trolls sometimes, since they had a knack for pissing people off. This one was more something my parents thought I believed about me(I was a very weird/imaginative child) but when we went to Disney World when I was 8, they actually had to explain to me that the mascots were people in costumes, and don't look like actual cartoons (ala the Roger Rabbit Effect) Even back then I was smart enough to get a little offended at the suggestion I was that gullible! (For backstory, I used to watch The Muppets in Disney World movie, and when they get to meet Mickey he was in his animated version, for some added magic. They thought I would think it was real, lol.)

Did they walk around naked, with bushes and trees, sheets covering them? I was shocked one day when I was watching the news and saw people in clothing!!!

    Michael, there really **WAS** a person who changed the traffic lights! In our town (a University town) traffic got really terrible at rush hour at one particular intersection. There was a booth on the corner where a police officer (My Dad and his co-workers) would watch the traffic back-up and help "even out" the flow as needed by cycling the light. So, yes, there was someone doing that. He just wasn't INSIDE the light itself. When I was in Junior High School I would walk from the school downtown to where Dad was in the booth and wait there with him until my Mom came and picked me up to go home. He let me press the button sometimes, on his cue.

And I believed that the ocean was right underneath me, (because I could hear the water in the pipes) and that there was a shark RIGHT UNDERNEATH ME and it was going to pop straight up (like the JAWS shark on the DVD case) and eat me, I always got terrified to shower.

But was very puzzled where puppies came from. (About 8 before I met a mama dog!). Also very puzzled on meeting a Pomeranian (I was about 3). Called it a 'puppycat'! Oh, and was told that moms and teachers ( my mom was both) had special eyes in back of head, hidden by hair, so they could always see what you were doing!!! I was 3 when my brother was born. Understood 'in tummy' - o ly way out was cut open. I was ok with that part. But had no idea how they'd put her back together again! Was rather worried😮

Creepy. 14: Nope. 13: Nope. 12: No, I thought it was caused by altitude. 11: No, but they creep me out. 10: I kind of thought that too. 9: No, but I never really used one. 8: No, but I still didn't know what the term meant. 7: Same. Ugh... 6: My mom did that for bread crusts for me. She said there was meatloaf in it and I loved her meatloaf. 5: No, but I never had a TV in my room. 4: Same, LOL. 3: Same, and it was creepy. 2: Nope. 1: Same, which is hilarious because I think every kid believed this.
