I had this splendid idea of making a post about sharing my strangest beliefs. I thought, "Hey, this might make a good thread, where everyone can share the strangest beliefs they've had when they were younger. I'm sure it'll stir up some good laughs. :) ... Here's a few beliefs that I've had before when I was younger.

1) In 2nd grade, I didn't believe that multiplication existed. I remember one time when there was one of the bigger kids on the bus that said "five times two is ten" and I was like "NUH UH! It's seven!".

2) In 2nd grade, I thought our skin was made of scales like on a lizard and that we were cold blooded. What if I was right, and the reptilian humanoids are taking over O_O.

3) For years, I always thought that TTS connections had to always be a green rod. The small ones. In fact, I don't think it was until the summer of 6th grade that I figured out how ridiculous I was being.

4) My sister once had a Fantasy Encyclopedia filled with information on goblins, witches, faeries, dragons, etc., and there was this one page of it that always gave me the creeps. It was a picture of this dog with a rotting face with large fangs and big, yellow eyes that seemed to stare at me. Even when I got older, it was still super freakin' creepy. I always thought it was going to jump out of the book and attack me.

5) When I was afraid of the dark, I always liked to think that the monsters and I had a deal: as long as I had some music playing in my mind, then they weren't allowed to get me.  

That's all I have for now. Feel free to leave a post!

Nice original thread idea. I'll chime in more later, but I have always been very superstitious when it comes to sports, evening just watching them. If team is on a win streak, I will maintain the same habits for each game until they lose.

Thanks, King! If I'm to be honest, I got the idea after watching some Planet Dolan (formerly known as Danger Dolan). I understand why you would do that superstitious sports thing. 

I'll add onto my list. 

6) How perfect that this is #6. (6) When I was slightly younger and I was watching scary movies, it wasn't the main monster or ghost or whatever in the movies that would scare me. It was something silly. The best one I can think of was when I was watching Cujo. It wasn't the rabid homicidal dog covered in blood that scared me. It was this one scene when the closet door creaked open slightly at night. 

7) When I was first using the computer, I thought each window you opened went deeper and deeper into the computer. Kind of an embarrassing belief, but the computers had really thick monitors back then, so I put two and two together. It made sense at the time. :P

I guess all GT fans have something in common... ;)

 

Kinda strange, but I've always thought that football was some hypnotic way to have parents bore their children until I started watching it. Weird.
