I used to be so afraid that our house would catch on fire while I was going to the bathroom. So I had this whole system down of preparing the toilet paper while I went to the bathroom as fast as I could, so I wouldn't have to run outside to get away from the fire, with my pants down. I'd count the seconds of how long it took me to go, trying to break records of the longest and shortest time it took me to pee.

Every time we were out I'd get desperate for a wee. I thought Mum was really mean 'cause I'd see signs everywhere and she'd never let me go. Turns out they were To Let signs!

At school the janitor would clean the bathroom and leave the toilet seats up after it, when all the girls would see the seats up, we thought that boys were using our toilets and wouldn't use them.

When I was in kindergarden we were on a bathroom break at school and there were toliets that had the name of the company written on the back and we always thought the boys were coming in and writing on our toliets

I used to believe that when you flushed the toilet it went underground to a chamber.the liquid went off to your taps.There was a covier belt were all the solids went.sOME PEOPL LIVED DOWN THEIR AND COULD pick the things they wanted from the convier belt.I one dropped a mini torch down accidently and I thought someone would take it and use it.

I used to believe that the automatic toilets were automatic because a little man sat in a booth behind the wall and when he saw you get up he would push a button and then flush the toilet for you but somethimes the toilet would flush with you on it or they wouldnt flush at all so ii would get up and yell at the little man for doingthat

maggie was mad

As a young child, I would always wonder where our...toilet waste would go when we flushed the toilet. I used to think that there would be this guy in a chair with a desk and there would be little pipes on the wall and all the poo and pee would go into little rubbermaid containers with labels.

I used to think that toilets led to the shower head. That's why I never took a shower :D

For years I thought that 'TO LET' signs on buidings were actually advertising
toilets to use & used to get annoyed at the fact no-one could spell properly.

I used to belive that if you didn't hold onto hte toilet seat you would fall in.

silly

I used to believe that there were little creatures that lived in the toilet and nibbled on your butt while you were taking a crap!

When i was little i put my hand in the toilet because i was going to the bathroom for the first time...

When I was a kid I would never use the stalls in public restroom which has air vents over them. I always believed there was a hidden camera in there watching my every move. To this day I still avoid those stalls.

When I was about 6 years old, I decided (all on my own apparently) that when you flushed the toilet it all went under the house. And that there was a hugh Gnome city under the house and many of the gnomes were like mine workers and it must be them who took all of the poop away. I don't think I ever got really clear on what they did with it. But I knew it had to go somewhere after that.

When i was about 6, i saw a bidet in a hotel bathroom. i asked my mum what it was for and she told me it was for people to wash the snow off their boots when they came in the winter. i realised the truth when i was 16!

When I went to camp a couple of years back, when I was about 9, there were two bathrooms, and on one of the bathroom doors it had a little sticker that said , "Toilet camera used for research only." So I told the entire cabin that if you didn't hurry up and do your business, the toilet camera would snap a picture of your butt!
