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.

Too much TV
My Mum used to watch a popular farm based soap opera where all the characters answered the phone by abruptly stating the name of their farm to the incoming caller.
It took quite some time to convince my sister that the words "Emmerdale Farm" weren't interchangeable with the word 'hello' in everyday conversation.

I seem to recall Annie Sugden saying it but that could be a false memory...
