When she was little, my sister thought darkness was caused by the clouds coming in at night and covering up the sun - "night clouds" she called them.

I thought the phrase was "handle with kit gloves." I was in my 20's when I learned of my error and, OF COURSE, the circumstances couldn't have been more embarrassing.

When I was little, I thought dogs were males and cats were females. They had sex and had a litter of cats and dogs.

When I was young my dad told me that if you ate the popcorn kernels in the bottom of the bowl of popcorn that they would get in your intestine, pop, then you would be unable to poop. I believed this for years. Later in life when I told him that he just laughed and said, "You didn't eat any of those stupid kernels, did you?"
My mother hated the word "fart". She would refer to it as "fluff". "Oh dear. Your father just fluffed again." I was ridiculed in 1st grade the first time I used that word.
My mother told me that if you left the knife in the tuna fish bowl in the fridge it would cause salmonella. I caused a mini panic at the restaurant I worked at when I was 16. I had the manager convinced that the metal pans we kept the tuna fish in was dangerous for a day. He put everything into plastic containers until the next day when he asked someone else about it.

My wife believed that when you flush the toilet in an airplane, it would shoot out of the plane and dissolve before it hit the ground. We had an argument about it when we first started dating, and when she stormed in on her dad and demanded he tell me I was wrong, he just started laughing and laughing.
The only action I got for a few days after that was the cold shoulder.

My family had me convinced that there were a lot of paper mills in Georgia that stank.
Almost every year growing up we would vacation in Florida, which meant a long drive from Michigan. When we would reach Georgia, the car would begin to stink. The excuse given was the paper mills. When I got older I realized the cause of the stench was much simpler and biological.

I thought that the sign read "Not a TOUGH Street", like the street was well paved and not bumpy.

When I was young I thought all adults were smart, and generally had their #### together.

I thought the Detroit Free Press was free. Until the time my aunt gave me some pocket change and send me to the store to get the Sunday paper, I just stood there with it looking at the clerk and he said, "It aint free kid". I think was planning to use that pocket change on some candy.

I thought when banks used "First" in their names, it meant they had some importance over other banks.

Didn't learn until just a couple of years ago that "bass guitar" doesn't rhyme with "grass guitar".

Pretty sure Stalin won WWII.
Though in reality, there were no winners, only losers.
