Stupid Things You Thought When You Were A Kid

Burning Down · 07-02-2011, 11:58 AM

I used to think that people in the US spoke "American" and not English.
I used to think that the Tooth Fairy pulled out your baby teeth.
I thought that building houses was like playing with Lego.
I thought everyone who lived before 1940 or so saw in black and white (because the films were black and white)
I used to think that dreams were predictions of the future.
I used to think that everyone needed to get braces when they were teens or young adults.
I used to think that Toronto was the biggest city in the world.

- I though everyone made $200 every two weeks, regardless what their job was.

"America: What a country!" .. In Soviet Russia everyone makes $400 a month regardless of what their job is.

I used to think that all cats were female and dogs were male.

-I thought brown cows made chocolate milk
-When I heard corn on the cob was called ears, I tried to talk into them

and perhaps my most embarrassing tale

I decided I wanted to be a tree one day. So I ate dirt on a daily basis for like 3 weeks. I stopped because I wasn't making any progress

I remember Dane Cook making some asinine joke about some atheist because when he died, he believed he would nourish the ground and turn into a tree. God, I hate Christians that believe only they are right, especially loud ones that make shitty jokes.
