Stupid Things You Thought When You Were A Kid

That...
You could outrun the sun.
You could sneak up on a rainbow.
If you stoop up on a hill, you could see the earths curves.
Teeth lasted forever.
Chucky (from the scary movie) was a fucking badass, this is stupid because now that I rewatched the movie he's just a little prick.

I thought that the Moon followed me, probably right up until 10 years old.

. My parents aren't quite religious so maybe that and BBCs Dinosaur and other documents explains why i didn't&don't believe in God. But Santa... my parents told me that he is real, but somehow i didn't believe that..

Santa is not that big here so i never once believed he was real

and i wasn't brought up in a Christian household

Neighborhood friend had me convinced that me and him and our other friend were robots. Proof, wrist bone was a bolt. Duh. "Feel that thing... we're robots"... I was convinced for a few weeks.

Wanted to be (one of if not) the first American to say I thought the world didn't gain color until the 1960s due to older films. I also thought that British people moved and spoke in a more fast paced way than they do. Think like... those wacky chase scenes and stuff. I was so confused by that...

I also thought that about seeing in black and white. I think it's really quite common.

after the Nicholas Hammond version of Spiderman came out, I was convinced a spiderbite would give me Spiderman-ish powers

luckily, there are no poisonous spiders here

I thought Jimi Hendrix was in Van Halen.

I remember thinking, when I was very young, that the world began when I was born. Everything there just sprung up around the time I did.

Growing, aging, and logic proved my conclusion wrong. I was surprised how silly I'd been.

I'd guess I was maybe 6 or 7 though.

I thought it was okay to use wire hangars
