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)!!!!!
i used to believe that stomach aches were farts stuck in sideways.
When I was younger my Dad used to tell my if I farted too much my ass would fall off, so I tried not to fart and I ran up to him a few week later telling him it had fallen off when I got in the bath.
When I was little and farted my mother would insist I say "excuse me". I never heard her say excuse me so I thought only kids farted!
My schoolmate Nick used to think that girl's farts smelt of roses.
i never knew the word fart exsisted until i was about seven, i thought it was called "bustin' a bean" 'cause that's what my dad always called it, lol
As a child I believed that if I did not pull my fathers finger that he could explode. Now that I have a child of my own, I have instilled this fear in her.
When my family went camping on Labor Day weekend with another family we were friends with, I remember whenever somebody farted, one of the member's of the other family would cover their beer or drink with their hand. I thought from then on that if you didn't do this, then the fart would get into your drinks.
My dad told me when I was little that when you were sick you needed to fart to get the germs and posions out. If you didn't you would stay sick until you did.
I remeber when i was young my nana used to say that when you farted you were letting some of your soul escape. So i used to hold it in until i got really bad cramps. Needless to say i stopped believing when i was rushed into hospital.
i used to believe that if you farted out of your mouth, you'd die.
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.....
When my step dad farts it sometimes makes sort of a quack sound, so when I was a kid, after he would fart, he would say "whoa, did you see that duck run by?!" Then I'd actually go looking for the duck. This also made me believe that ducks could run so fast that you couldn't see them, cuz every time "a duck ran by" I couldn't see it.
To begin, you need a bit of background on my family: Dad's a lawyer, Mom's a medical researcher. And they're a bit careless with their references.
Anyway, I found a book called the Amazing Machine about the human body, and, being at the time in my machinery-fascination stage, started reading.
Then after dinnertime, I sat at the table and waited for several minutes. When Mom noticed me, she asked what I was waiting for.
To which I replied, "For someone to bring in this can of gas we're supposed to pass around after we eat."
One time my dad told me that if I fart and burp at the same time, you would implode. I tried and tried, but I couldn't do it. About six mounths later my dad told me that it wasn't true. That means I told all my friends a lie!
I remember when my sister was about 5, she would not fart in the tub. She thought that it would form a smelly-film on top of the water that would kling to every inch of your body when you were ready to get out of the tub.
When I was little my mom told me if you dont fart then your a robot and she never farted and im like MY MOMS A ROBOT!!!
While my husband and I were still dating, he asked me this, with a completely serious look on his face: "Do girls fart?" I couldn't stop laughing!
When I was little I used to think that if you farted in the shower it wouldn't smell cos the water would wash it clean.
