Silly Theories - Ends 9th September

[Yupt]

When I was younger I was so convinced that animals were just a way for our parents to spy on us, that my dog was in fact a robot reporting information about me back to my parents. This had me wondering, what theories did other people have when they were younger? For this competition post below a silly theory that you may have had when you were younger… or even still have.

The one I find the most amusing will win!

When I was like 6, I saw a picture of the Milky Way galaxy for the first time and I was like "Oh there's a black hole in the middle making it spin around", AND SCIENTISTS ONLY JUST FIGURED THIS OUT LIKE A YEAR AGO. I AM EINSTEIN.

Also I used to think that Portugal was North-West of the Ireland (where Iceland is) for reasons that not even I understand.

When I was very young, way before I had any sexual feelings, I figured out that man + woman = baby. Then I started to wonder what man + man would make and speculated (within the confines of my head) that a homosexual encounter could possibly create those stereotypical grey aliens that many people claim to see when abducted.

Absolutely ridiculous looking back.

But also very revealing of my sexuality from a young age.

The tooth fairy, Santa and the Easter bunny are actually the same person....

Looking back, I was probably correct in my theory

The pips in apples grow into an apple tree when you water them. accidently swallowed some once and didn't have a drink for the rest of the day!

I used to have a theory that nobody is real.... everyone around me is a robot! I have yet to me proven wrong!

My brother once told me when I was 5 that there were bears that come to your door and take kids away every year under the age of 8

i think someone must have told me that the boogeyman lived on the moon but i assumed that the boogeyman WAS the moon

i'd be terrified at night every time i saw the moon and also when we were driving at night in the car i'd cry because i thought the boogeyman was following us

cos you know the way it looks like the moons following you.... or is that just me

After seeing Toy Story, I would believe my toys were alive. So whenever I went on holidays I would put them all on my bed and set one toy in charge of the rest. To make sure they would behave themselves while I'm gone. So when I came back I would be glad to see them all just the way I left them. Pretty sure I ended up doing this for years, that and trying to enter my room quickly enough to catch them moving.
Now I just believe my dog and bird judge me for things I do...
