When I was younger I used to believe that whenever I would drink Kool-aid that huge Kool-aid "ohh, yeahh!" guy would jump through my wall. So I never drank the stuff.

I was shaking a bottle of apple juice one day, and my sister told me that if you shake apple juice, it becomes poisonous. I got so scared because I had taken a drink before that and I thought I had just poisoned myself and I was going to die.

I used to think that absinthe was "abs in the". It confused me a lot.

As a kid I was told that if I drank coffee I would get fleas in my stimach, because coffe was for grown ups only. I still do not like coffe, and whenever i drink it I imagine little gnats filling my stomach. I am 23 now.

When I was little, I used to think 'mulled wine' was actually 'mould wine' and I would wonder why on earth anyone would want to drink it!

I use to think you only got orange soda from a happy meal and that the only type of drink you got with a happy meal was orange since that is the only time my mom would let me have it.

When I was growing up, my best friend and went to the same pediatrician. Therefore we thought it was perfectly safe for us to drink out of the same glass since we "shared the same germs". I don't know which one of us came up with that idea, but we both believed it.

I always thought that if i drank o much water it would come out of my ears.

I used to believe my mom when she told me that if I would get terribly sick if I drank milk and then soda, one after the other. I now believe she told me this because she didn't want us kids drinking a large amount of expensive milk and soda rather than ordinary water.

When I was a little girl my mom said that if you drank coffee your knees would get black and that is why she told me to never drink coffee and I still don't.

My dad and mom used to own a restaurant and i was very clumsy so i'd always knock down cups from my table. I used to get so upset and so would my mom. I used to think that all cups hated me...

Why do cups hate me?

Once my brother wanted my Dad to make sure that the POP wasn't sour like how Milk does. He told him that if it was he could die. He took a big drink and ran to the bathroom. My brother and I chased him and when we saw him he was laying on the floor shacking. We started crying I really thought he was dieing.

When I was four years old, my grandmother told me that the last drops left in empty soda bottles were poison. I believed her for at least a few months.

when i was younger i saw a movie where there was a gathering at a park type place and a thing full of grape coolaid was there for everyone to drink. Well i dont remember why but someone had poisoned the coolaid. Needless to say i was afraid of grape coolaid for years after, i wouldn't even drink or eat anything grape flavored for a while.

My broher told me that people who pushed the wrong bubble (on drink lids from fast food resturants) were forced t eat bugers if anyone caught them. I believed him for the longest time and always pushed the right one after that.

When i was a little girl of 5 years, my dad was very interested in Tai Chi. He would do his excersizes and then get himself something to drink and sit with me. One time he was making juice and I asked him what kind it was. He told me it was concentrated juice, like the ones in the can where you add water. My daddy asked why I wasn't having any juice, and I replied "But that's your juice to help you concentrate!" thinking of the hard Tai Chi excersizes he was doing and how he told me and my brother never to bother him while he was doing them...hehe
