A decent Basil thread: What crazy things did you think when you were a child?

I used to really think that ghost are raping you when you get a chill down your spine, because that's what my mother always used to tell me.

I used to think that our torso is separated into 2 halves; one part holding liquids and the other holding food.

I used to think that I was actually tricking my parents when I pretended to fall asleep and then turned on the TV the minute they leave my room.

I used to think that anal sex would lead to a pregnancy in which the baby comes out from the back rather than the front. When I said that out loud my mother had a huge laughing fit. My father commented "that's how you were born" to tease me.
