Things you thought were true when you were a little kid

Can you maybe PM about it? I'm suddenly extremely curious. 

It's not that intersting. It's just way too NSFW to post. 

It would also fall into a TMI territory that makes even me a bit uncomfortable.

Santa, elves, bobby etc.
I had a vivid imagination as a kid, still do. Just able to discern between that and reality now. Most of the time.

 

Its not my fault I am grumpy, you try having a porcelain todger that's always hard!

I thought all TV was live and that looking into a TV was like a portal and i was looking at people inside of my TV doing things, but then Mum explained it is pre recorded and how it's streamed and all that. Oh here's a good one, i thought installing nvidia drivers would inhance my PC's performance in GTA 4.

Same here if you don't mind i would love to hear it but if it makes you too uncomfortable to discuss it don't worry about it.

I thought there was a monster in my closet. So much so that one day I "felt" it coming near me and I just had to run for it. Strangely enough, after that day, I never really felt like the monster was there anymore. As if it had just gone...

What? Not what we were talking about? Oh... Well, I dunno, I was a boring kid who learned early on what was true and what wasn't. But I guess I thought mice liked cheese when they really prefer things like nuts and other high sugar content food(which is why you can put peanut butter on a mouse trap to catch them). I blame cartoons for that.

There was a lot of things I believed as a kid, but can't remember much. Some examples include:

 

-I thought I had friends... Unless the word "bully" can be replaced with "friend", boy was I wrong...

 

-I thought plugging in a running hairdryer (that was unplugged by me tripping over the cable) while wet was a good idea... The experience was quite... shocking, literally (pardon the lame pun).

 

-I thought darkness was a thing to be afraid of... Today I am more anxious being in brightly-lit places, so I guess that says enough.

 

-I thought santa existed... Turns out he only visits the rich kids.  :lol:

Never trust my advice. Only take any and all advice from me with a grain of salt. Just a heads up.

Say no more. It's okay :)

´Unfomfortable´ might have been the wrong word to use. I wouldn't be uncomfortable talking about, it would just be a bit weird.

It seems pretty weird to me that a 27 year old man sends PMs, about what he thought about sex 13 years ago, to teenagers online.
