Ridiculous Things You Believed As A Kid

I was sure mutants (like the X-Men) were a real thing; like, certain people had special powers but weren't saving/taking over the world.

I was positive I was gonna develop super powers any minute when I was a kid. If I won a race, I believed my super speed had begun to manifest. If someone didn't see me, obviously I had finally tapped into my invisibility. I remember for the longest time I was certain I had a healing factor simply because I had never broken a bone or had been seriously injured.

I still haven't ruled the possibility out.
 
That I would lose my virginity to my wife. That pretty much changed when I started dating.
 
Since my parents met and got together when they were like 13, when I was young, I thought that was normal, like you got a girlfriend and stayed together and got married. The idea of rejection, break-ups, rebounds, hook-ups, etc just never occurred to me as a little kid.
 
I remember I was rubbing my grandfathers bald head I was like 10..I said
"poppa i'm, gonna give u a head job"...I believed i was wiping his head, I didnt realize
until i was 15yrs old...the mistake i made:)
 
I thought losing your virginity meant just kissing.
 
Worms would come out of your mouth if you ate too much candy.
 
I believed that if you swallowed raw plant seeds or accidentally swallowed a bug it would continue to live in your stomache.
 
i believed that Aliens stole my old Batman mask.....

Clearly you never read that story about a man who swallowed a seed and hand a plant growing in his chest.
 
When I was fourish, I believed that there was a shark living under my bed, and that if I dangled my toes over the edge when I was sleeping he (I also absolutely knew it was male) would bite them.

I lived in Pennsylvania. I have no idea where I got the idea of a shark from.
 
If you put a wad of Vaseline on the windowsill of your bedroom at night time and sleep, the next morning it will turn into paper. so free paper supply... Allah hi hoodim
 
My neighbors had a big screen TV and I thought that if I watched a movie on it, I would see more of what was going on. Kind of like looking out a bigger window.
 
okay i am game
1) that i could give myself super powers by mixing up chemicals from a chemistry set ala the Flash! my dad got me one but it was nothing harmful just fancy names for salt and crap! if only i had the internet back then.. i could've gotten my hands on some real radioactive isotopes!:woot:

2) that everybody except me were "androids or robots" I think i watched too much "6 million dollar man," classic star trek and " The Stepford wives!" scared the crap outta me that i was the only "organic!"

3)... oh and basically deep down people were good like thunder!:cwink:
 
That you could make hybrid plants by taping seeds together and planting them. I once attempted to grow giant apples by taping apple seeds to pumpkin seeds.
 
Oh and that you couldn't touch anything metal when there was lightning, because you'd get struck by it.
 
I thought S.H.I.E.L.D. was a real organizations similar to the FBI or the armed forces
