I had this really weird fear that when I flushed the toilet, somebody would come and kill me because the sound of the toilet would cover it all up. I don't know why I had this fear or where it originated.

I used to think that if you pooped too much, the entire toilet would be filled and you'd be sitting on a pile of poop. I never thought that people would actually flush if it got "too full" to them.

I used to think that the toilet was an animal, and it waited for people to deposite their 'waste' down the drain to feed him. Everytime i went to the bathroom, i felt like i was feeding the toilet, like you would a pet.

When I was little and we moved into our new house, I was afraid that the smoke alarm was a security camera that went on at night *because of the green light that flashed on and off*. I was always afraid to goto the bathroom for the sake of it calling the police when it detected movement. One time when I had a high fever and was dilerious, my fear was raised, and I was afraid to leave my room because I heard policemen outside the room. I had drank alot of water because my father would constantly tell me that in order to get better, I would need at least 5 cups of water per day. I ended up wetting myself...

When I was a child my mom used to tell my little sister that if she didn't stop usuing so much toilet paper, the Tidy Bowl man would slap her on the butt. To this day I remember that and remind my sister about it. Fond memories.

When I was about two or three, I thought the toilet was a water ride for little kids, so one day I tried to climb in and flush, so I could try the water slide in my house!

I used to think that when you flushed the toilet that it went to a building where worker people picked out the poop and other things that went down the toilet and that was howthe water got cleaned

i thought that some homeless man sat in my wall and the poop would go down through that little pipe into a bowl and the starving people would eat it and one day i took the stud finder and i went by the toilet because i thought it foud things behind the wall and it beeped right next to the toilet and i was terrafied and i used a different bathroom rom then on.

When I was in 3rd grade, after eating lunch at our school my whole class would walk down the hallways to the bathroom and stop to let everyone go. I remember all of my female classmates going into the bathroom, and taking at least 15 minutes (or so it felt like.) Being a boy i could not understand why or how anyone could spend THAT long in a bathroom!! I then came to the conclusion that there must be some big, beautiful garden in the girls restroom. A garden complete with a big playground area and anything else that would cause these girls to spend that long in the restrooms.

When I was little, from about age 4, I wouldn't flush the toilet if the water was blue. I was afraid that it would make the blue go away and the people who made it blue would be mad at me.

When I was little I used to think that there were monsters down in the ground below your toilet and when you flushed that was their food and drink. I thought when you just peed that they were getting their drink, and when you pooped that was their meal. I always said here comes your food when I flushed. I thought they were so grateful when they heared that flush.

Spray paint cans have marbles in them to help stir the paint when you shake them. When I was little, my dad used to cut the cans open and put the marbles in the toilet tank. For the longest time, I believed that if you went poo poo once a day, your toilet would produce these marbles for you to play with.
