A family member (I don't remember who- not me, I swear) was once told to write a story in school. He began:
"Once upon a time when diosaurs ruled the earth and Grandad was a little boy..."!!!
A childhood belief about history

others believed things like this
- My Grandad told me he invented carrots.— Nicole

- My grandad used to tell me that if i ate tripe, then it would put hairs all over my chest Anon
- The very first time I saw a globe (of Earth, yes) I asked where "College" was located.— Shade
- When I was a kid, I believed that bible school was "beauty school", and called it that all the time.— Dana
