When I was a child, my uncle (who is 6 years older than me) told me that his hamsters and fish were really baby lions and pirahna's, so I was petrified to feed them cause they would eat off my arm. It wasn't until my Mom realized that I was afraid to go to the pet aisle with her to buy his pets food that I was told the truth.
