I used to believe that 'broctoyouby' was a word. On commercial television after every show they would say the show was 'brought to you by' and then the name of the sponsor.
A childhood belief about adverts

others believed things like this

- I used to believe that if I broke the T.V. during a show, I could get into the show— Vanessa
- i thought there was a "that 80's show" and "that 90's show" too— :D
