While watching cartoons I would spend a great amount of time looking for the strings that moved the characters, thinking they were puppets.
A childhood belief about cartoons
others believed things like this
- When I was a child, I used to know that using cheques you could spend an endless amount of money— lollo

- I used to believe planes flew by being attached by strings like a kite.Anon
- My nephew, at around age three, used to say that airplanes trailing white exhaust were "airplanes on strings".— Mojo!
- I used to think that when you moved, you SWITCHED houses with the person who moved out.— Sheippe
- I used to believe that we had a finite amount of skin and that I would eventually run out due to pealing.Anon
