<p>You know those conveyor belts you dump your suitcases on at the airport when you check in your bags? I used to think they were part of a huge network of conveyor belts in the sky that would carry your bags from one airport to another.</p>
<p>(...They'd have to move really fast. And it'd kinda suck if they fell off. :p)</p>
<p>What silly things did you believe when you were a little kid?</p>
<p>I used to believe in the boogie monster, wait, what is that shadow behind me!? I had a lot of irrational fears as a kid. Windows, spiders...Um, the list goes on and on.</p>
<p>this thread totally already exists.</p>
<p>why am i on college confidential at 1 am? ...... i don't know.</p>
<p>i used to believe that i could get sucked down the drain in the bathtub.</p>
<p>that i was going to become a stripper</p>
<p>I don't really know what they're called, but you know the little blinker things in cars that you flick when you want to make a turn, and then the little arrow begins to flash and makes a noise ? ok well when i was little, i never saw that my parents would push the little stick up for right and down for left, so i believed that the car automatically knew where you were going and promptly turned on the little arrows at the appropriate times.</p>
<p>i thought that Vice Versa was an island in the caribbean.</p>
<p>You know mj93, I wouldn't mind a vacation. Can I go to Vice Versa with you? Sounds beautiful!</p>
<p>My dad once told me that if you put your hands up while you're on a roller coaster..you slow it down. ='(</p>
<p>I used to believe that if you swallowed watermelon seeds, they would grow in your stomach.</p>
<p>I think that was from Rugrats or something.</p>
<p>Yes. That was a Rugrats episode. Where they went inside Anjelica who swallowed watermelon seeds-and ofcourse, it was an adventure. There was this HUGE upwards vine in the stomach. I was so scared of it after I saw that episode when I was like 8.</p>
<p>...How do I remember this!?</p>
<p>wow, i remember that too. weird.</p>
<p>why is that weird
they showed that episode the other day</p>

<p>holy ****.</p>
<p>i believed that too. ohmygod!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we should marry each other or something</p>

Oh yeah, I used to believe that in the Logical Journey of Zoombinis game, once you get all 625 zoombinis across the map, then you could manage Zoombiniville like you could manage The Sims or something. I thought you could build houses for the zoombinis, zoom in on them (including the zoombinis in distant mountains) and let the zoombinis interact with each other (such as buying things from the general store, swimming in the swimming pool, and going inside the award buildings. thankfully the game was so excruciatingly repetitive that i didn't manage to do such a thing, so i let my imagination flow wildly</p>

..sigh.. i think i'd be happier before i subscribed to the science=everything paradigm</p>

<p>haha, i haven't watched rugrats in like ten years.</p>
<p>I occasionally watch it, but only the older episodes. It started to suck after chucky got a mom.</p>
<p>i didn't know chuckie got a mom.</p>
<p>yeah, his dad married an asian woman. After that the show started to be less than entertaining. Chucky even got a sister named Kimmy.</p>
<p>RUGRATS holy Jesus. It's still one of my favorite shows.</p>
<p>But yeah, they totally jumped the shark after Paris. And again when they were all growed up. But I miss it.</p>
<p>That was totally my favorite show as a kid. Oh man, back when TV was awesome.</p>
