- I thought "burning a disc" meant literally putting it into a machine that would engulf it in flames. I kept wondering why people didn't just put CDs in the trash when they didn't want them anymore.
- the whole realm of sexuality, for me, was a man and a woman kissing. I thought that was how women got pregnant as well. I also thought that's what "oral sex" meant because it involved your mouth and that's 'oral' right?
- My sister said there were werewolves in the forest behind my aunt's house. I ate that right up.
- my sister also told me my head would literally explode if I thought too much or became too smart. In hindsight, this may have been her way of trying to look better because I've always done very well academically.
- Because my sister lied to me so often, I didn't believe her when she said putting up your middle finger is offensive. So I flipped my mom off.
- I thought bees and wasps could lock onto your DNA, and if you pissed one of them off, it would tell every other bee in the area and they would attack you all at once.
- I semi-seriously entertained the notion for awhile that I was actually a robot.
- I also semi-seriously entertained the idea that I might be a genius. As it turns out, I am not of genius-level intelligence (thank god!), it's just that everyone around me was really dumb. That might sound like a harsh assessment, but trust me, you don't know my school.
