I think I believed that too! I blame all the shows and cartoons that would represent the past in black and white.

My sister would put on a scary voice at night and tell me she's a dead witch.

I really love spooky things so a small part of me wanted to believe even when I had my doubts.

I was convinced chocolate made you pregnant. For real. I was eating a chocolate bar and my. mum wanted some, but I refused to share, so she told me chocolate makes you fat. At the time she was pregnant with my brother and that was the only kind of fat (big belly) I knew about, so I was convinced chocolate made you pregnant. I didn't eat any for ages.

I was such a weird kid xD

@Tuijp: lol yes, this happened when I was 4 xD

Lets see, so when i was a kid i was convinced i could float for a couple of months. Winter proved that belief totally wrong tho, slipped so many times that i couldn't ignore the ground anymore.

@Tuijp: I mean the chocolate incident happened when I was 4

Well, I used to think we all peed through holes(like no difference between boys and girls down there).

@Tuijp: Thought that for years too.

I was convinced that the blank squares on a calendar were just extra days in the month- just in case you needed them.


Also, I first read this as convicted instead of convinced and was like holy cow! What did you guys do?? 🤣

@Tuijp: Saying that just makes us curious you know.
