When I said the pledge of allegiance when I was little, I always thought the words "for which it stands" was "for Witchit Stands" and that "Witchit Stands" was some kind of gas station run by witches.
A childhood belief about the pledge
others believed things like this
- I used to think "from which it stands" was "for Richard Stans".
— cobra - "...and to the Repulblic, sandwitches stands..."
— Shirley B. - for my first Internet year, i believe all the ".ca" sites stands for Calif State websites.— ray cheng
- I used to believe that the "Pledge" of Allegiance had something to do with our "Pledge" cleaner. — Pledge
- I thought the Pledge of Allegiance was "to the United Steaks of America," and that we were saying it to cows.— bessy
- I used to believe that, in a deep and profound kind of way, the words "door knob" rhymed with "said so". — Katie
