    Just be careful though because a guy up the road got a superman suit for Christmas when we were younger. He put it on and tried to fly down the stairs and broke his arm :D

    I always pretended to be superman.
    Another one, how many of you used to jump around on the furniture pretending the floor was made of lava?

    Lol..I love this post!

    My older brothers to give me wafers in the shape of communion and re-enact the whole communion thing before I made my first communion.

    I got sent to the head dinnerlady at school (Edna.. she only had 8 fingers, scary woman) for pretending my Walkers ready salted crisps were communion wafers. Got in to big big trouble for it, was told I was a terrible boy and was going to hell :confused:

    Actually my brothers were p***ks cos they told me I'd have to tell the priest I'd been doing that when I went for my first confession. I was sh*ting myself and didn't tell the priest in the end. When I came back they were asking me how many prayers I had to say etc. They got it out of me that I didn't tell the priest and kept reminding me for years after that God would always remember that I lied in my first confession and blackmailed me for years by saying they'd tell mum and dad. They got a lot of club milks and the chocolate flakes from the 99s out of me for that!

    Was I the only one who pretended it was the sea and that Jaws would eat me if I fell into the sea/onto the floor!

    I still don't like having my feet on the floor when watching Jaws :o

    I used to wear a teatowel on my head to pretend I had long hair when I was younger. My mum used to give me clips and hairbands to accessorise. So this does not seem strange to me

    Ha ha my sister used to do the very same thing.

    I heard MJ walked around with Blanket wrapped round his shoulders and felt like a not-so-dark invader...

    Pfft...everyone knows you need pixie dust and happy thoughts before you can fly! Silly friend.

    Ah god yeah!!

    Then create a faux hood with the blanket to achieve the "dark side" effect...waving your hand commanding your family; "you want to make me tea"

    I sleep under the stairs now
    :(

    Wearing it backwards, it's a run of the mill robe... and the back is slightly exposed...like a hospital gown? cosy as hell though, €8 in Penneys :)

    I was sure the majority of blanket wearers thoughtd they felt like Darth Vader.
    Batman/Superman never even entered my mind...let alone a priest saying lets pretend Mass!

    Not where I'm from. The chances of getting a baseball bat across your back increases with every step.
