Can't claim that i found this, it was in the Guardian Guide today, but boy is it a good 'un

It's a site of what people used to believe when they were kids. Please stick your favourites up, the quality is variable, but some of them are wonderful. My favourite so far is

"When I was a young grade school girl in the '60's, I always wondered what a penis looked like. I imagined it to be like a 7 inch nightcrawler protruding from a hairless crotch, ending with a shaggy 3 inch main of hair. A sort of pornographic Dr. Seuss visualization. I had nightmares about coming into personal contact/confrontation with one of these strange creatures."

Unfortunately you have to view the source to be able to copy stuff, as they won't let you lift it directly.

When we moved house, my mum told me and my sister that there were fairies living in the central heating vent, and we would sit next to it and whisper to them. I also used to believe that honeymoon meant that the government paid for young men who wanted to get married to drive round in a coach, all wearing straw hats and blazers and when you spotted a girl you'd like to marry, you would point her out to the coach driver, he would stop and then you would get engaged to her.

I used to believe that, like Bagpuss, all my thoughts came up in a speech bubble above my head. I was the cleanest minded child in the world. Bl**dy Catholic upbringing...

"when i was a kid, i used to imagine that there was a wizard-like person that lived in my body, right above the bunghole, and he pushed my crap through this portal that radiated light, and everytime i held my poo, i imagined this wizard trying to use his magic to push it back out. You know, the dung would come pushing back up through the portal and this little wizard dude in this light green cloak chanted getting the turd out." This what Saturday is all about. Posting things about poo on the ABCtales messageboard.

"i used to think that when there were people who were going to die in a movie, the producers held a meeting of people who wanted to die in real life and then chose someone to cast in that movie, and the person then actually died" awwwwww...
