I used to believe that, when I went to the bathroom, once I flushed, a monster would come in to being. So, for at least two years, every time I went to the bathroom, I'd flush and sprint out of the bathroom and down any halls I had to until I reached my destination. If I was in my house, I'd flush and run as fast as a could to my room and jump into my bed, where I was safe.
