toilets

I used to believe…

When I was getting potty trained as a toddler, i used to believe that potty training was being put onto a train that had alot of toilets until you knew that you wouldn't go in your pants anymore.

I used to believe that when you flushed the toilet a monster popped out to come and eat you. I flushed and ran out as quickly as possible.

I used to believe that there was a bee in the toilet and it would sting u if u peed on it!

I used to belive that there was a momster in the toilet and when i flushed he would wake up and chase me. so I would flush and RUN.

I used to belive that there was a monster in the toilet and when I flushed he would wake up and attack, so I would flush and run. And the louder the worse it would be for me.

I used to believe…

When i was like, 5, i thought that toilets (and bathtubs) would suck you up if you flushed them and stood too close. so when i went in public bathrooms, i would get done, unlock and open the door, flush and run out quickly

i used to think that the toliet and the bath tub could suck you in if you were not careful, and that if you did get sucked in it would be like a big waterslide.

When I was younger I used to believe that little crabs lived in the toilet, so every time I went to the bathroom I talked to them and asked them to please not pinch me!

Being the youngest of four children, I was the object of much cruelty. The worst was when my brother, who is 7 years older, told me that there is a witch in the toilet. He told me that she will come out to eat me if I flush. I still wonder if she's in there...

I used to believe…

In 3rd grade a friend brought a large garter snake to school for Science. It escaped and went down the urinal in the boys bathroom. From then on I knew the snake was going to come up the toilet when I was sitting on it. I would do my business in record time and jump off!

I used to think that rapists put cameras through the toilet pipes and watched you while you peed! I always went to the bathroom really fast so that they couldn't see me and come to my house to take me away because I was a girl.

I used to believe that there was someone in the toilet and there was a hand that would grab me and pull me into the toilet. So everytime i went to the bathroom, i kinda squatted over the toilet so i could run out of the bathroom when i was done. lol.

I had the same fear of toilets that (apparently) many people had; that is, I thought they were an embodiment of evil.

But I have an excuse. When I was about four, I had this really painful ear infection; thus, my ears were really sensitive, and everything sounded like it was about 5 times louder than it should be. Cue me using a toilet on an airplane for the first time. Now, for those of you who haven't flown on an airplane, when the toilet flushes, it creates suction to get rid of the... matter. Otherwise, if there's turbulence... well, you do the math. However, this suction makes a rather loud noise; to my sensitive ears, it felt like my head was going to explode. Thus my irrational fear of AIRPLANE toilets; I'm cool with the normal kind.

To this day, I make sure to wash my hands, unlock the door, etc., so I can come bursting out of the door the moment I flush the toilet.

When i was little i was deathly afraid of the noise our toilet would make. So i always ran out of the bathroom as fast as i could because i thought a fish would come out of our toilet. Well im not afraid of our toilet anymore but i do open the door before i flush any toilet.

I used to think that the Devil lived in the toilet and would be afraid to go to the bathroom, and when I finally would go I would constantly look down in the toilet bowl to see if the Devil was there ready to grab me and drag me down to Hell.

I used to believe that if I stayed on the toilet too long, the toilet witch would come and pull me down the toilet by the bottom. That got me off the loo lickity-split!
