I used to belive that our body was functioned by little robots inside us, and we were like factories. That was, until I went to secondary school.

When I was younger I use to belief that I could cut off my big toe and it would grow back. That's why it was bigger then the rest of my toes.

I once believed that if your hand is bigger than your face, it means you probably have AIDS. Isn't that ridiculous? I don't remember who told me that, but to whom ever said it, you're dumb.

I uses to believe that my Dad's finger was like a pencil he could write with it because there was dirt under the nail and I thought it was like the lead in a pencil.

My teenage cousin,15 at the time, told me a 5 year old told me during the winter if you ran your hands under hot water when your hands a numb(very cold)your fingers would fall off. it sounds dumb but i believed it for 4 years.

My parents did a bad job explaining why fingernails, etc. grew back when you cut them...so I truly believed that if I cut off a finger it would grow back...don't worry I never tried....

I used to believe that everyone had a different colored brain and (of course) I was the only one who could assign them a color. It usually coressponded to their favorite color though. :)

well when i was a small girl of about 4 i used to wonder how women breastfed their children.i figured out that they had stacks of hay inside their boobs and that's how the milk was produced. i derived this theory from the fact that cows ate hay so that's what helped them to produce their milk.

SO AND SO

When I was a kid, I remember going to a dentist and asking what "those little black dots" were on a toothbrush (when you look at the toothbrush from the front when it has toothpaste on, you can see the dots of each bristle). The dental assistant told me that the dots were "Cookie Bugs" and that is why I had to brush my teeth. I believed that for years.

I used to have a boyfriend who thought that if I played with his nipples they would fall off...needless to say the operative words there are *used to*...

I used to believe that the size of a person's nostril was in direct ratio to the size of their fingers for ease of picking. I also thought that if you had small nostrils and big fingers, that the nostril actually stretched out to accomodate the finger, so the person would get bigger nostrils.

Becky

When I was little my aunt always wore pumps. (High heels with pointy toes) I always thought that if you wore pumps that you would have less toes so one day I asked her where her toes went when she put on those shoes. Needless to say she laughed and told me that she still had all of her toes that they were just not in the very pointy part of her shoe.
