When I was very young, I thought people were imitating the sound of your sneeze in sympathy by saying "kableshu". So I would say "kableshu" when other people sneezed. I was so young they thought I was just mispronouncing "God Bless You" so no one corrected me. I eventually made out the actual individual words about three years later.

I used to think gooseberries were poisonous ... because my mom told me they were when I was little. The neighbors had a gooseberry bush that overhung our backyard fence and Mom didn’t want me picking them.

I used to think we had two January 1st’s.

I used to think that the audio of music videos were recorded on the set of the music videos.

“I used to think” the letters P.O.W. At the Tonkawa P.O.W. Camp had something to do with Pow Wows.

Oh yeah, as a 3 year old I'd constantly ask my mom who played (any cartoon character). I didn't understand they were drawings with actors only voicing them. My mom worked at a major amusement park, and for awhile she worked in the costume department I got to sometimes go to work with her. I thought that cartoons were the people dressed as cartoon characters, like at the amusement park. Lolol. She had to explain how cartoons were actually drawings, not people in costumes. Hahaha.

I used to think the vast majority of cars driving on the road had no drivers, because I almost never could see them through their windshield or windows. I thought my parents just always drove our car for fun, or as an extra safety measure. By the time I was 14 I had figured out that most cars did indeed have drivers if I looked hard enough, but didn't think all did. Needless to say, I was very confused when I started hearing about Google's "self-driving car project" that aimed to develop cars to drive themselves. I thought they must be after some special capability that didn't yet exist in normal self-driving cars.
