We could start a thread about stupid Chinese superstitions, and it would be twice as long as this one :lol

I thought you were only allowed to marry people with the same last name as you.
With regards to chinese last names, the 'wongs' have to be written the same as well.

- my mom told me if i didn't sleep early at night, big cats and dogs would come and eat me up.
- if you swore on someones life, you better not be lying because if you lied then that person would be 6 foot under. so i never lied, but i crossed my fingers. :D
- had to write a letter to santa in grade 3, i got a letter back saying he couldn't make it to my house because of the weather and shit. i was kinda sketchy with the santa idea, but if you get a letter signed by santa that means he really does exist right? wrong.
- that yellow light means 2 people can turn, which is incorrect. however, it's still happening everyday.
- i didn't know bad shit happened, all this war, drugs, corrupted cops. i use to run around playing cops and robbers here. being the bad guy was bad enough.
- i believed that automatic was better than standard, HAHA! HA!
- everytime you press the pedestrian button, the government got a dollar. so don't overpress it.
- good things happened to good people.
- all girls were nice.
- i thought dragonball z was real, here was me trying to practise kamehameha. i thought i never had a clear mind and my hands weren't properly placed.

as a kid i thought if i yelled loud enough, id turn super saiyan

triplexcel 02-12-2010 02:40 PM

i use to think that if i focus enough energy into my hands, i do something like the kamehameha.

i thought that all tv's had their own different channels.

i use to like playing with bugs, now i hate them loll.

I believed in the North American Household Hippos

-my mom told me and my siblings that we always had to finish every last grain of rice in our bowl or else my future husband/wife is going to be pimpley faced (I actually still somewhat believe this)
-that you actually had to blow into the guys penis for a blow job

That if I can't see something, it can't see me. So one time I tossed a blanket over myself and tried to sneak through the living room past my bedtime when a bunch of relatives were over. It didn't work :(

I secretly hoped Hogwarts would send me a letter. They didn't. Assholes.

there's a tonne more but I can't remember them. I never questioned stuff as I kid I just made up my own explinations in my head.

I did the same with the movie Tom and Huck (Tom Sawyer adaptation). So whenever I would talk about I said "Tom and that other guy" cause I thought Huck was a swear word :lol

Me too, I thought pregnancy was just a random occurance.

Eating a fish egg would give me the equivalent nutritional value of a normal and entire grown fish.
So when I was eating like salmon roe or something my mind would pretty much go nuts thinking about it.
