Traffic lights are operated by creatures who live inside them

I used to think that dwarves lived in traffic lights and watched the cars to see when he should switch the light. Guess not!

When I was about 5 or 6, I used to beleive that there were little men inside of the traffic lights. I thought that the man would sit at a control desk with tons of screens, and when it was time to change the light, he would flip a switch.

I used to believe that there was a little person inside each of the traffic lights. They had three buttons, and would push one to change the light.

I used to believe (because my mom told me this) that there were little men that lived inside the traffic lights that operated them. She told me that was why the lights worked all the time, and if we saw a broken traffic light, she would say, "poor little man's gonna get fired for that". I believed this far longer than I should have.

my dad used to tell me and my sisters that monkeys controled the street lights and that they lived in the yellow utility boxes....so we would make monkey faces at the light (to the monkeys) so they would turn the light green
