When I was little my dad used to tell me that when he farted, that if I breathed it in I wouldn't get a cold in the winter
A childhood belief about farting
others believed things like this
- I used to believe that when winter came and it snowed the grass just died or went away for the winter.— Chris
- That only men farted. I literally started sobbing the first time I realized I farted.Anon
- I used to think farts were air you had breathed in and out loads of times and was 'used'Anon
- i used to believe that if you swallowed gum, when you breathed in, your stomach would stick to your back— cope
- I used to believe that if I pumped in my sleep and breathed it in I would turn into a rotting turnip!— Quako
- I thought everyone only had a set number of breaths before they died.
I breathed slowly for a long time.Anon
