I was reading this site and I was thinking, "Wow, this guy named Anon sure had a lot of weird thoughts!" until I read the other people's beliefs who thought the smae thing! How could I be so dumb?? (anon stands for anonymous)

Just realized that there isnt someone named Anon who had a ton of weird beliefs--it stands for anonymous! Age 13...

*Andrea*

I used to believe that anonymous was an actual persons name- i thought he wrote a lot of stuff!

Becky

I believed for the longest time when looking at this site that "anon" was a persons name who kept making up stuff. But actually short for anonymous. i'm soo dumb!!

anon<-hehe

Until about 1 minute ago I thought that some person named Anon had a very big family and a very good memory. Just now I realised its short for anonamous.

All my life, when reading things like this site where people sign "Anon.", I thought Anon was an actual person's first name. I only realized that it wasn't when reading this site and figuring that one person couldn't possibly have had that many strange childhood beliefs. We won't mention how old I am. ;p

Tom Anon.

Once, WAAAAAAAAAY back when I was little, I was at this site where people submitted their childhood beliefs, and I came to the conclusion that some one named Anon had some serious issues.

Abby

I used to think Anon was a just another prolific writer, and wondered what his first name was. (Yeah yeah, I was a chauvinistic little brat, assuming Anon was male... )

Dino

when I first discovered "I used to believe" site and started reading, I thought this "Anon" person sure spent a lot of time posting his/her experiences here.... I just realised "anon" means anonymous and it's not a specific person that goes by that name. I am 27

I used to believe Anon was a very silly Egyptian boy or girl whose parents had great fun making things up till I realised it was short for "Anonymous"

i used to believe that after a quote when people wrote 'anon' that it was really someone's name. so i assumed that this person just went around giving quotes left and right. i figured they must be really smart.

I used to solve the cryptoquote in the newspaper. After I had been doing them for a while, I believed that there had once been a very prolific author named Anon.

Anon

I just realized that Anon is not a real person. I thought someone was doing more then their fair share of contributing to this website.

Anon

When I was five minutes younger from this moment, I believed that all the entries on this website from "Anon" were from one person named Anon who could recall a lot of childhood memories. My little sister figured it out for me.
