Things you used to think...

Archive: 64 posts


When we were very young we all used to think really stupid things. For example the most common one is when you used to think teachers lived at school. What I want you to do is post them here.

I'll start with a few....

When I was little i used to think that anyone who works at a shop or anywhere like that was a robot

And my friends sister once thought women give birth through there mouth D:

Now it's your go.

That reminds of Wallace and Gromit when they went to the moon to get cheese! Loved them!

Good old days.

Ha ha, yeah, Wallace and Gromit probably helped create that in young minds. And also The Clangers. But then it gets really confusing as a kid cos in Button Moon it's made out of a giant button... and is really creepy with folks visiting in ships made out of bean tins and they have wooden spoons for arms !!! As a child I had moon identity crisis and now I know it's just a rock trapped in orbit...what a disappointed.

For those who haven't heard of the kids shows The Clangers or Button Moon, try youtube-ing them. Very very strange.

I never believed in santa, but I did think the world was black and white as a kid. A little kid. I also thought that there was someone out there trying to kill me, so if anyone walked near me and looked at me I would run away.2010-02-28 02:38:00

I used to think if you went behind the till at a shop (like a highstreet one of something, not a supermarket), it was really slippy, and you'd continuously fall over. Not sure how the employees got behind there.2010-02-28 08:00:00

HaHa I used to have a similar thing with misinterpreting words. For years I never realised that 'an' was a word which led to much confusion. A couple of examples:

I used to think 'half an hour' as in 30 minutes was 'half a nour'.

Also whenever we saw an aeroplane I always thought it was a 'naeroplane'.

I was told by a Christian when I was very young that God was everything. I nervously looked around for like a week at everything...

I also use to think a grown man lived inside a digital clock, changing the numbers every minute..

I used to think babies were made from the food the mum ate. If she ate say, an apple (not a napple mistervista ), it would fall into place and become the head. A pineapple could have been the body, and so on.

I was dumb.

I used to think that all my toys had feelings, and I would feel sorry for the toys I didn't play with often.

I also used to believe that the world was black and white when my parents were kids. I guess I thought that since most of the old movies were in black and white.

So just to clarify, you still believe that the famous jazz musician Louis Armstrong was the first person to walk on the moon?

So did I! On 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?' (English gameshow where you answer 10 questions, with the top prize of ?1,000,000), getting the first (very easy) question would win you ?100. I used to think 'Why don't they just quit now, they're rich?' Now I owe my parents ?22 because I just didn't have enough for my ?230 netbook

When I was young I use to think school camps invovled sleeping over at the actual school. I also had a dream about googgaly eyes and then thought they actually existed (noun goo-ga-ly eye: A large floating eyeball slightly bigger than a basketball with a big vein like thing coming out of the back of it which follows you at night) they really creeped me out.

I also use to think that fireworks were stars exploding and that storm water drains in gutters would suck you in if you got too close.

I used to think the sun and the moon were one and the same. lol.

Also, when I was little I had a big plastic dinosaur (t-rex).
When I lost a baby tooth I pulled one of his out as well. I totally thought they would grow back like mine.

I actually really enjoyed imagining Louis Armstrong stepping out of the lem onto the moon's surface to make some astro-jazz history.

I don't remember a whole lot of this sort of stuff myself. I remember a friend told me about how he thought the moon and sun followed him around - and just him. When the family would drive in the car, he'd ask about why the moon was ONLY following THEIR car.

Michel Gondry has a story about how, as a kid in a city, he thought that most of the earth was made of concrete and asphalt, all the way to the core, and that it was just little patches here and there of dirt and plants - not the other way around.

Another friend of mine has a story about how he stuffed a grilled cheese sandwich into a VCR to see what would come on tv.

I think children might be geniuses in a weird way. We should listen to them more. We should definitely not push aside the questions that we might regard as stupid. You ever overhear parents doing that? A kid might question something that doesn't have a one-word answer, perhaps even something profound about planets and existence and god, and the parent will just disregard the question, dismissing it as a useless question. ESPECIALLY if they themselves don't have the answer.

Next time I see a parent doing that, I'm just going to beat their kids up and RUN.

I always thought North was the direction of our television set, because it had a compass on it during the weather report. It was MANY years later I realised that all TV's point in different directions, and every TV did'nt have its own north.

But as luck would have it, our TV did actually point North lol.

Oh, yeah! I forgot about POKEMON CARDS! When I was little, those were the WORLD to me. I would play Pokemon cards (and later games) with my neighbors, Rayna and Kristen, and we would OBSESS OVER POKEMON. I had the feeling back then that everyone cared about Pokemon and knew what it was, and was surprised when people didn't know what it was.2010-03-06 14:44:00

I had the toy thing too - I'd feel bad if I didn't play with one Thomas the Train Engine over another one, for example.

I always felt I was being watched from the woods around my house, and it made me really uncomfortable. It still does. I had a friend over last night, and she even said she didn't feel comfortable. lol.

Whoever had said they were paranoid of people looking at them and running away, I was like that too. hahaha

I also used to often think there were 100 seconds in a minute. Go figure. hahaha

I had this weird theory that your sense of touch was actually just a very mild version of pain. Everything you touched, and every time you hurt yourself, the level of pain would add up to some kind of total and once you reached a certain level you would die. Therefore the laziest people would live the longest. 2010-03-07 23:28:00

When I was younger, I used to think HP was the greatest fiction ever.

Then I found the Night Angel Trilogy.

(HP's alright?but the NAT is just soooo much cooler. If you ask me. )
