That my bellybutton was a knot keeping my insides inside.

Hologram stickers used to work too well on me.

I remember I got a Tony the Tiger hologram card with a pack of Frosties and I was trying to the pull the Tony the Tiger toy out of it??

"Don't make faces, if the wind changes it will stay that way"

How I feared that.

when i was really small i used to think that when i flushed the toilet that a witch was going to come out of it and chase after me...... dunno where that one came from

I used to think the same thing!!!!!!! Used to flush the jacks and sprint down the hall to avoid the toilet dwelling b!tch.

Also used to be afraid during sleep overs incase someone turned into a werewolf.

I used to think the people on tele could see and hear me which was why i always acted tough when watching the A team, so theyd see me and ask me to join

I used to think there were little men living in my chest cavity. They had axes and hit the food i ate as it fell down which turned it to poo. then on my 25th i was given grays anatomy

I used to think the big cranes on the East Wall were Giant's Armchairs.

I also used to think that prayer said 'and save arseholes from sin'.

TeeHeeHee · 13-10-2010 10:54AM

I used to think that programms and films were filmed in one go, as apposed to shot by shot.

I could never understand how the people in them were able to be in one place and then another so fast.

I thought it was amazing :pac:

I also used to think that when you switch your light switch there was someone in a big powerstation that turned the lights on for you.

Man I was slow!

Its actually the Ear, Nose & Throat!

Not in Cork!

There are hostpitals outside the M50 too, and our noses don't need seeing after down here cos they're just gorgeous. Hence the different name...

I used to think that bin lorries were large monsters that needed feeding, and that money from the collection at mass used to be taken up to God in a plane so he could swim in it.

I used to believe that women peed out of their butt -holes

I used to think that I could be an astronaut because I had no problem swallowing a bite of my cheese sandwich while standing on my head.

Used to believe wrestling was real. Was crushed when I found out it wasn't

I used to believe that if you broke a bone, you'd die from it:o

rainbowdrop · 13-10-2010 01:24PM

Not sure if people here have heard of the Humber Bridge? It's a 2-mile long bridge near Hull in England, and until 1997 it was the largest single span suspension bridge in the world -

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Humber_Bridge

My Dad worked on the construction of it in the late 70s/early 80s, and I was convinced that he built it all by himself. Even used to tell my teacher at school that 'my Dad owns the Humber Bridge'....... I thought this meant we were richer than the Queen:D

Jimmy444 · 13-10-2010 01:37PM

I used to think airline pilots owned the planes they were flying.

c_man · 13-10-2010 01:54PM

I used to think that black people only had to wash their palms and soles.

There was a time when the world was black and white.

Crocidiles and other bad creatures lived down the toilet, their only opportunity to strike was when it was flushed.

keep_runnin · 13-10-2010 02:08PM

I used to think Michael Jackson lived in the Lee rowing Club in Cork. Something to do with his 1988 gig in Pairc Ui Caoimh I'm guessing.

I also used to think that photocopiers made paper. I thought that if you ran out of paper you could just photocopy a blank sheet and make lots more.

yungwan · 13-10-2010 04:27PM

When I was young I used to think being a grown up would be so exciting and brilliant and that I could be whatever I wanted to be........... :rolleyes:

I also thought when I was 25 I would be married, successful and have everything I wanted! Wrong. Again

dmm82 · 13-10-2010 04:38PM

I used to think that when you posted a letter in a postbox it went through little tunnels in the ground to the persons house, always wondered how it knew the way

Also, had an uncle living in England and when he used to get the boat home I thought there was a man in a rowing boat that rowed each person over, one at a time!
