Freddy Krueger was two people. I thought it was like Dr. Frankenstein and his monster. I thought it was Dr. Krueger and Freddy was the monster he created. When I saw the movie I was like where's his creator, the one that brought him to life?
My dad has this long running bit, that if I needed his help on something, he needed to go to the shop to get a "round tuit". I remember asking what store he had to go to, and how much it cost, and being annoyed at how he hadn't gotten a round tuit yet.
He must have thought I was really committed to the bit.
my stepdad had a round tuit. you can buy them!
I used to greet clothing store mannequins and thought that people who didn't were very rude.
that you're supposed to show a middle finger as if you were showing it to yourself
I used to think a car direction indicator was a GPS guiding system, and not manually operated.
That we would live in peace
That we had to pay our employer to get a job.
I thought 'tomorrow' was a day of the week. So when my mom would say we'd go somewhere 'tomorrow' I'd ask her every day if it was tomorrow yet, and she'd say no, and I'd keep waiting.
I believed that for very small creatures (like ants) time was faster.
I think that is true in a way. Since information has a shorter route to get to their brain than larger creatures, they may react slightly faster
