When I was around 6, my Grandmother told us that snakes would come up from the toilet at her house. So, for years I would try to go as fast as I could and sometimes even try to look and make sure one did come up to get me! Still to this day when I am at her house, the thought will cross my mind and I don't know whether to laugh or "finish as fast as I can"!

- When I was little i thought that seconds were so fast that you couldn't count them.— Baby
- My brother (who was 6 at the time) would never flush the toilet in fear of our new house being blown up! Anon
