Stupid misconceptions you believed in when you were a kid.
 
Stolen from Honda-Tech but it gave me many laughs.

What are some stupid things you believed in when you were younger.

1) ATM's gave out free money
2) Elves pulled sliding gate doors in the little motor box
3) I was blown away by Metrotowns projector thing in the old foodcourt (from the Metrotown thread lol)
4) Pads and tampons were for girls that couldn't hold their bladders.
5) When I picked up a broken smoke detector I freaked the shit out cause the back said it had radioactive material in it. I washed my hands so many times...
6) The word "STN" after the street on translink bus signs were some sort of hidden road busses could only go on.

Share yours!

Back in kindergarten, I thought mothers would get pregnant automatically after getting married. :facepalm:

That if i paused a recorded credit card commercial and took down the credit card number, i can use it to buy online porn.

I thought i had it all figured out.

I thought since my dad got snipped my parents couldnt have sex any longer. I got really mad and booted him in the nuts. He of course got mad as well and was like why did you do that? I said well it doesn't matter you don't need them any longer. He then told me he does but he just cant make babys lol

When you reach a roadblock and they as your parents if they had been drinking tonight, and I look at my dad's can of Pepsi and try to cover it with my hand. I always thought he was lying to the popo.

When my Grandma took me everywhere on the bus and skytrain, I never needed a ticket. I always hid from any security or police hoping they wouldn't catch me for riding for free.

In elementary, I used to wonder why we had earthquake drills. I thought that if there was ever an earthquake, my parents would just come pick me up and go home. The thought never crossed my mind that the earthquake would affect the whole area, and not just be localized to the school itself.

when i was young i always thought that whenever you turn on the tv the show would be different on every other tv or the episodes would start at different time.

I thought vagina was a crack, like a butt crack, and I thought you just slide your penis into the crack.

I thought people actually died in movies.
One time, when an actress died on screen and later appeared in another show, i was like WTF!

I thought kissing would lead to babies
