When I was 3 or 4 i thought to go out side you had to have something white like a cigarette in your mouth. So i would try to find a colored pencil or white crayon to put in my mouth.

i think mi mom lies

When I was about 14 or 15 years old, my friend who was the same age told me never to smoke a cigarette down to the filter, because it would make you unable to have children later. Where did that come from???

I used to believe adults smoked cigarettes backwards, that is, i thought you had to blow on it and I thought "what's the fun of blowing on that thing and making smoke come out?"

When I was younger I thought that men who smoked were the only people who grew facial hair becuause the only people I had ever seen with mustaches or beards were smokers. I didn't realize that all men grew facial hair until the fourth grade when we had a sex-ed class and they taught us all about puberty and hair growth.

when i was about 3 or 4 years old I was convinced that smoking too many cigarettes would make a woman pregnant. I said to my mom and her friend, "don't smoke too much, you'll get pregnant!'
they laughed at me, until they stopped.

I could never understand why people stubbed out their cigarettes when only the white bit was left.(I didn't know that it was not filled with tobacco; but was a filter instead) I thought it was a waste.

For some reason, I thought that all people who smoked pipes were ugly and very bad (like child-killer bad). Maybe this was instilled by movies? Not sure, but it was scary.

When I was little, about six or seven, my best girlfriend and I would pick up cigarette butts off the ground and if they had lipstick on them, we would light them and smoke them, believing that women didn't have germs but men did so the lipstick meant they were safe.

When I about 3 or 4, I saw a box of cigarettes and my grandma told me they were cigarettes. I misheard it as 'piglets'.


When I was 5 or 6, maybe 7, there was a smoldering cigarette in the bathroom and I went near it, and I freaked out and thought I was going to die just becuase I went near it.

When I was about 5 or 6 I used to believe that "smoking grass" meant putting a long piece of grass in your mouth the way farmers do.

when i was younger, i thought that when you smoked you just held it in your mouth. i assumed that the taste and smell were what people liked. i had no idea about nicotine. haha i believed this untill one day when i was "smoking" and my older friend corrected me...
