I used to think that the U.S. and Great Britain were natural enemies -- I was just the right age when the Bicentennial happened in 1976, and there was a lot of information about Washington fighting those dastardly British.
A childhood belief about nationalities
others believed things like this
- I used to think that the word Great was added to Britain because they won the Second World War.— Age
- I used to believe that the lower level of the George Washington Bridge in NYC was named Martha Washington— Shayne
- When I was little I thought that Washington( D.C. )was in Washington state. Anon
- My brother used to think "Kung-Fu Fighting" was actually "When It Comes To Fighting."— The Pacifist
- i used to believe that my dog was really a cat in disguise trying to get information on the dog empire!— strange and used to be stupid
