the.one.they.call.gay Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 I used to think buffalo wings were made out of the wings of a buffalo. I assumed that I'd never seen a buffalo with wings because they had been cut off. After about a hundred geography lessons, and ya'know common sense, I realized that buffalo wings are the wings of a chicken covered in a sauce from Buffalo NY...

That the Easter bunny left me and my sister hats behind while they were running away. They were part of our easter gifts. There's probably something better but that's all I can think of rn. 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment https://forums.ditchthelabel.org/topic/6786-something-you-thought-when-you-were-younger/#findComment-78961 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a great post ! I have a birthmark on my tummy. When I was younger my mum told me that she spilt coffee on me when I was a baby and that's why I have this mark. I actually believed her until I was at least 6!! 2 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment https://forums.ditchthelabel.org/topic/6786-something-you-thought-when-you-were-younger/#findComment-78964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unsure-But-Sure-All-At-Once Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 I love all these answers . My sense of geography is pretty good, but, living in Canada, I had no sense of where some states in the US were placed (even though I lived there for four years). For the the longest time, I thought Georgia was in the North and Minnesota and Montana were in the South. I was so confused when I looked at the map when I was in grade 5 lol. 1 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment https://forums.ditchthelabel.org/topic/6786-something-you-thought-when-you-were-younger/#findComment-78976 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catsup Posted June 1, 2023 Share Posted June 1, 2023 I used to think the Pacific Ocean was called the "Specific Ocean".

Hawthorne11 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 oh my god I love this. I have so many shenannigans I could put down, my brother and I were really weird when we were younger! I think one of the best ones was that my brother thought for years that while we won the revolutionary war, we were still enemies with Britain! This is a testament to how bad America's history requirements are. 1 2 MultiQuote Quote Link to comment https://forums.ditchthelabel.org/topic/6786-something-you-thought-when-you-were-younger/#findComment-79510 Share on other sites More sharing options...
