animals

i used to believe that jackalopes were very real.

I used to believe that sheep on hills had two legs shorter then the other,i have believed this all my lfie and only found out last year it was all a lie! (I am 15 now!!)

I used to believe that brown birds came from pakistan.

i believed for awhile that earwigs would burrow into your ear canal and eat away at your brain.

My mom used to tell me not to leave crums around the house or ants would come. i didn't under stand that the ants acem from outside and would eat the crums, i thought the crums turned into ants so i sat there watching a crum for hours waiting for it to turn into an ant.

Until I was about 7, I was afraid of walking outside barefoot...I believed that the ants would come and suck my toes!

One time in early grade school, I remember a classmate of mine pulled the head off of a grasshopper and out came were some of the insides attached to the head. He told me that was chewing tobacco. I believed that for a long time and still think of it whenever I see chewing tobacco on display in the stores. Yuuuckk!

When I was a kid, (that was loooong ago), I thought that a burglar was an insect, that looked similar to a spider. I was terrified of spiders, because I thought they would grow to enormous proportions, and steal all of our stuff.

I used to believe that if I was nice to animals, they would be able to smell that I was not a predator, and wouldn't hurt me. I used to save spiders and other bugs by catching them and taking them outside. I never killed bugs.
I might have been right. I have yet to be bit/stung/or otherwise injured from an animal, well except a horse stepped on my toe once, but that was an accident.

I saw my 8 year old brother trying to sleep last night and he was just all covered up but sweating a lot. I asked him why he didnt just take the blanket off and he said because he didn't want malaria. He believed that there were mosquitos in his room that would bite him if he uncovered and he would for sure get malaria and die.

When I was about 6, my dad told my sister and me that on new year's eve at midnight, the cats would talk, and we belived him. I reminded my dad that he said this the other day, and he denied that he ever said that.

When i was about 8 or 9 i used to think that u got a fine for steppign on a praying mantus because the cops had a little camera in the bug and thats how you got caught i was young i didnt know....hehehe

When I was little I used to believe that if you steped on a crack lots of bugs would come out. I never steped on a crck for a long time.

I used to think rats and bats were the same thing.

Sometimes when a mama rat had babies there would be a winged one and it'd fly away.

So when I got a little older I got a rat who was gonna give birth thinking she'd have a winged baby and it'd make the best pet ever.

I used to think all mice were white and those whom had other coloring were just painted

I used to believe that all dogs were male, and all cats were female.
