When I was three or four years old, I heard talking heads on the TV referring to "time zones," and others describing some Third World peoples as "living in the Stone Age." So I put the two together, and was convinced that all the eras of history coexisted on Earth at the same time.
A childhood belief about general
others believed things like this
- I used to believe that every country in the world had the same time. Guess I didn't consider time zones eh?— what are time zones again
- I didn't quite grasp the concept of time zones, and thought that Chinese kids went to school at night.— Giselle
- I used to believe that peoples ears grew so that when the world blew up we would be able to fly away.— Ears
- As a kid every time I heard a person say "it's about time" I always replied "so what about it?"— Eli the Kid
- The very first time I saw a globe (of Earth, yes) I asked where "College" was located.— Shade
- I used to believe that heads of state had diferent kinds of heads on their shoulders— stupid elado
