When my sister and I where little we would get in bed with my mom when my dad would leave for work at 2am. Every time we would get in bed she would tell us if we farted in bed our feet would turn brown. I believed this for many years. Now I have a son of my own Im going to tell him the same thing because its so funny.

I worked with a guy who thought that farts were microscopic pieces of poo and he was afraid he would get sick if he breathed them. He was 23!

Laughed in his face

When I was a kid and my father would fart he would tell me it was a mouse on a motorcycle.
I, of course, would go looking for it.

when i was little i thought that a skunk lived inside me and whenever he got pissed off he would spray causing me to fart...sadly i didn't realize it wasn't true until i was ten

I used to believe there were ducks that
lived under my Dad's chair because when he farted he would declare "Must be a duck in here"

When I was little i misheard the famous lines from Romeo and Juliett. I thought she was saying "Romeo, Romeo where fart thou Romeo." I was confused and thought he just had really bad gas.

I was sitting in the car when I was about 5 and saw crumbs from potato chips all crushed up on the seat and I asked "Mummy, are they my farts?" my mother had no idea what to say...

I used to believe that when you farted little bubbles came out of our butt, so I was very careful not to fart while I was standing. Just in case.

When I was young I apparently had a curious belief about farting. My parents found this out when I announced, after one particularly loud fart, that I had a horn in my bottom.

My mom used to say that if you farted to much ,when you got old that you butt would become loose and you wouldn't be able to hold you poop in and you'd poop your pants.

I used to think that farting was the sound the food I ate crying. My uncle used to tell me 'Dont be embarrassed about farting in public, A fart is just the cry of a lonely turd'
Then hed do his famous fart poem

Excuse the gas that had to pass
just be happy I have a clean ass.

He was pretty gross!

my mom told me girls shouldnt fart its not lady like. but i found it simply hilarious but every time i did it she gave me this look so once i put a air freshener in my pants and hopped she wouldn't notice.

I used to believe that our family was the only family that farted.

I was told that if you just let your farts out then eventually you would not be able to sop yourself farting - I was petrified, and had horrible visions of walking down the street farting uncontrolably (teriible thought)!!!!!

Never farts unless he can (really) help it!!!

i used to believe that stomach aches were farts stuck in sideways.

My brother once told me that if you burp and fart at the same time, you'd explode

Aubrey

when i was little, my parents put a jar on top of the refrigerator, and anytime any of us farted or belched, we had to put a whole dollar in the jar....boy, did i lose my weekly allowances very quickly.....

If i farted in the tub the bubbles would be different shapes.

My schoolmate Nick used to think that girl's farts smelt of roses.

Nathan

I use to believe that because it was cold outside and you could see your breath, that if I farted everyone could see it come out from my butt ((somehow through what i was wearing)) just like you could with your breath.
