What are some funny things you used to believe as a kid?

I'll start with one of mine:

Quote

 

The first computer I used was my dad's Windows 95 desktop, when I was five years old. I immediately figured out that the '95' in the operating system's name related to the fact that the year was 1995. 

This all made sense to me, until about a year later, when I first saw a computer at school. Now, my school were a bit behind the times compared to my family, so they were still using Windows 3.1. Extrapolating from what I already knew about Windows 95, I figured out that this computer must have been made in the year 3. Not 1993, not 1903, not even 1003: just plain old AD 3. As for the '1' after the decimal point, I figured that this must have meant it was released in January.  

"Wow, a computer from when Jesus was alive 😮 !" I thought to myself. "I wonder whether he ever used it?"

@Kyng Love this story! I can see the mix-up lol So, Windows 7, you would have thought was plain old year 7? 😄 Have you thought of how you as a kid would have explained XP or Vista?

I guess things I believed was simply Santa Claus & the Easter Bunny. Not to mention the Tooth Fairy lol

Indeed, I probably would have done! 

I suspect I would've thought Windows XP was Roman numerals or something (and thus was "the computer that the Romans used when Jesus was around"). No idea about Vista, though!

That Father Christmas was real and that if I didn’t behave myself I’d be getting coal. With the help of uncle google at around 15-16 I realised that he isn’t real but this still hasn’t changed my opinion of the Christmas season. It’s a great time of year to spend with family.

I was made to so much believe in the tooth fairy when I was still a kid. I was so afraid when I was still losing my milk teeth as a kid that things wouldn't go well with me and the tooth fairy which might make the fairy not take my milk teeth 😂
