Sometimes I made my mom go ahead of me and turn on all the lights I'd need to get ready for bed. I was scared that in the dark lurked a scary person who would be frightened off if my mom turned on the lights. I was never scared of my brother's room, which I had to pass in order to go from the bathroom to my bedroom and which was dark, since I didn't go in there to get ready for bed. I was only scared of darkened rooms which I'd have a reason to go into.

For a long time, I believed that all small objects were babies. I particularly had a thing with all erasers and hair clippies. I would take them to recess with me and poke them to try and make them come back to life. It never worked.

When I was little I would jump up onto beds and mattresses to play around on them. My brother told me that some were rigged with needles and if I jumped on them they would prick me. I believed this until I was 10. By then I figured out about how many parents would sue if their children were hurt.

I used to believe that everything around me was alive; even things like the FAUCET. I thought that when you turned the water on hot it would hurt the faucet because it was too hot.

i used to believe that every time i turned a light switch off that the bulb would burst next time you switched it on again. so i used to stand there for hours flicking the switch on and off just to see if it did.

When my niece was young, I asked her the following question:
If olive oil comes from crushed olives, and peanut oil comes from crushed peanuts; where does baby oil come from?

Form that moment on my niece would not let my sister-in-law moisturize her skin with baby oil. When my niece finally told my sis-in-law why, I was the pariah of their household for several months.

Being very, very gullible, I listened to my brother when he said that shaving cream was actually soap. I thought that was true for a few years, until my mother started yelling about where it was all going. I gave up on washing with it.

When I was little there used to be a ceiling fan in my room with a design on it that resembled some sort of evil man's face. I used to throw huge fits when I was put in my room by myself and I would scream "Man in the fan" and no one knew what I was saying until one day My dad figured it out and used it as a type of punishment. He would be like "If you don't be good I will leave you with the man in the fan. It worked for awhile.

I thought when you moved-like to a new house- your house would sprout legs and....move. When my parents told us we were moving I kept woundering what kind of shoes it would wear. I was really small, needless to say.

I always used to hate rewinding my videos when I was little, I thought that there were little people inside the VCR who did it manually and I felt bad making them work all the time.
