I thought the carpet cleaner on the vacuum was a "special pump". That's why it made that noise. At least that's what my dad told me.

I used to believe that you had to tell your mini autobiography when recording a voicemail greeting, so you would have to say something like 'hello, my name is John Smith, I am 32 years old with a big brother Michael and I'm a very exotic person, so please leave a message after the tone. Hahahahaha.
I thought tranquilizing animals put them to sleep instantly and didn’t realize it takes several minutes for an animal to fall asleep after being tranquilized. I also thought automatic tranquilizers existed and you could harmlessly put people to sleep by tranquilizing them multiple times in rapid succession, like in action movies and comedies.
I thought that the word "radioactive" meant if you turned on a radio near the thing in question, it would blow up (the radioactive thing, not the radio itself).

I used to believe that if I made a large enough frame out of blu tack, and then filled it with a soap bubble, I would be able to reach through into blu tack world and build a portal big enough for me to go in.

I used to believe tasers were just tranquilizer guns that use electricity instead of drugs. I didn't realize that electricity had to be applied directly to the head to cause unconsciousness.
I used to believe that tranquilizer darts make people fall asleep within 10 seconds. I also didn't realize it's possible to accidentally make a killer dart instead of a tranquilizer dart if you overcalculate the drug dosage.

I used to believe that scientists were robots and they had some kind of chip in their brain.
When I was a little girl I thought I was going to see flying cars in 2022 because I saw cartoons that said that year, but now that I'm older I realize that it doesn't exist.
