What nonsense did you believe in as a kid?
Ever thought that you could get flushed down the loo? That girls wee out their bottoms? Or that bumming means two men rubbing their bums together? Tell us about your childhood misconceptions. Thanks to Joefish for the suggestion.

Thanks Ted'
This prompted me to do a whole 2 minutes research, and I'm not entirely convinced. Take a look at this: www.worldwidewords.org/qa/qa-mak1.htm Looks/feels just as likely to me.
Interestingly (or not), I'm not the first to think it was 'meat', with some far-fetched theory about stuffing sausages! Haven't linked to that, as it's farcical.
But, of course, we'll never know.
