Dumb Stuff We Thought As Kids

[Robert Stewart]

Since I liked the taste of syrup more than butter on pancakes, I thought that meant that butter was healthy.

Or at least, healthier than syrup.

I thought sending mails to game companies to make games I want made would become a reality.

I thought the transition from child to adult was like evolution in Pokemon or like the metamorphic method in butterflies.

I also believed when you go to sleep, you can't move because your skeleton leaves your body to go out at night as if it is on it's break.

Kind of like the premise of this British kid's show, which may have been why I believed in this idea...

Young Slade always believed that the Sun was constantly following me only, every where I went. I told my mom I wasn't going to be friends with it if it kept following me around.

My basement had a windowed-collection of dolls and I'd keep one eye on the TV and the other on the glass door.

When I was little, I thought that if I would shave all of my hair, it wouldn't grow back.

I also thought that Canada was the only country in North America

In French, language and tongue are written the same way (langue).

I remember at some point, I've heard a lady speaking English to her daughter and I asked to my mom why I couldn't understand what she was saying.

My mom explained to me that they were speaking English, a different language.

But because both words in French are the same, I thought I would have to remove my current tongue and add a ''English one'' in my mouth for speaking English and ''switch'' between the 2 of them depending which language I would like to speak.

Yea, I don't even know what I was thinking.

Wow, Being French is hard ;-;

When my family visited my Mum's relatives in Holland, I used to think everyone was really smart because they knew how to speak Dutch. Or so my parents tell me.
