Kids will believe anything


When I was little, my grandma told me that if I swallowed a hair, it would turn into a worm in my stomach.  After that, there were several instances of panic after I sensed a hair in my mouth, and then couldn't get it out.  My parents were not amused by this trick.

This same grandma, when I was resisting doing something she had commanded, told me she "could see the 'ol Devil' in my eyes.  I thought she could actually see the Devil in the pupil of my eye, dancing and taunting her.  I was possessed!  Again, my parents were not amused when I told them the devil was in me - grandma told me so.

  2. I heard one - a dad told his young son that the ice cream truck always played music when they were sold out
