When you were young...

[Fightgarr]

My family eats a lot of soup. When I was about 3 or 4 my breath was too weak to properly blow on the spoonful of soup to "make it colder" so I would get my mom to do it for me, saying: "Mommy, foof it!"

When I was a kid my parents would make me peanut butter and nutella sandwiches. I was under the belief that if the peanut butter was on top I would not be able to taste the Nutella (and I was also under the impression that just flipping the sandwich over wouldn't work) so I would cry if my sandwich was peanut butter on top. My parents would come in and "remake" the sandwich by flipping it over. Then I would proceed to eat the sandwich.

I never stopped talked. Never ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever ever.

Seriously, I talked non-stop on our first 12-hour flight,
"What's that?"
"What does this do?"
"How does it fly?"
"What's turbulence?"
"Why?"
"Why?""
"Why?"

I did the opposite. I wouldn't talk for weeks. I mean, I can be reeal quiet. People would come up to me and say, "Anthony, why aren't you talking." and I wouldn't even answer them. 'Cause I just didn't have anything to say, y'know. I can be quiet.... real quiet.

(No, the irony is not lost to me.)

When I was very young, not sure how young, but the only one out of 3 other toddlers my age who could walk. There was a birthday party and the cake was on a low table that I could reach, so I grabbed the whole cake and ran (waddled) under a bed, supposedly the three crawly ones crawled after me.

Also, when my brother was brought home from the hospital, I was a little over one, I almost bit his entire toe off O.O

Alright, here's one of the many:

When I was a kid, I went to a school that had other kids grades 1-8 (ages 6-13ish) in the same school.

When I was 6 and going into first grade, duke nukem 3D had first came out, and I thought he was AWESOME. So, I would go around saying some of the things he said to be as awesome as him (trust me, the logic CPU in my head wasn't running until later in my life).

This one time, I was on the bus, there was this annoying 7th grade girl and her two friends who would constantly annoy me. So this one day (I swear it gets funny), I remember it clearly:

She asked me if I was gay. I said no, of course. She was like "Y NOT, IT MEANS HAPPY LOL" and I was like "I'm not happy."
She was like "Why aren't you happy~~?" and her friends were like "YEAH, WHY AREN'T YOU HAPPY, HAHAHA"
And I was like "because I have to sit next to you."
And she was like "...take it back you little scumbag" and her friends were like "ooo, he said he doesn't like you~"

And so after she called me a scumbag I was like "You're an inspiration for birth control." (- Duke Nukem) and, at that point, I didn't really know what it meant, or how bad it meant. I just felt like saying it? I figured it was something bad because Duke says it when he sees the alien queen, but I didn't know how bad it really was at the time.

So her friends burst out laughing, and then I got the shit kicked out of me.

It hurt at the time but looking back at it, it was pretty funny.

Hilarious thing happened to my younger brother when he was about 5 or 6. It was Christmas and my parents had let him have a very tiny drop of sherry because it was Christmas Day. He subsequently stole the (alcoholic) drink of a friend who was visiting and got drunk, proceeding to fall into the Christmas Tree and knock it over. He then proceeded to keep saying over and again "You got me drunk, I'm calling Social Services!". The most hilarious part was that the friend whose drink he'd stolen was being picked up by her mother at the time, who just happened to work for Social Services herself . My parents had a lucky escape there...

I wanted to be a firetruck. I told my parents this and they told me immediately that I could not be a firetruck. I cried.

They say the devil's water, it ain't so sweet, you don't have to drink right now. But you can dip your feet every once in a little while

When I asked my dad about the "birds and the bees" he gave me a story about planting a seed (and he meant seed literally, not figuratively) in "mommy's belly" and waiting for it to "grow into a baby brother or baby sister."

I called him a liar and went and interrogated my mom about it, who was undoubtedly sweating profusely at having to describe this to her 5-year old son. When she finally gave me the whole truth, I said: "O.K." then walked out and began to play.

 

[RavingPenguin]

I had a habit of hitting my head on things, poles, the ground, once even a giant lego block (that one needed stitches).

 

[Ace of Spades]

If my mom is to be believed, then I made a guy at the library stop and do a double take because he saw a two year old kid (me) reading a book out loud. I wasn't really reading though. My mom had read it to me so many times that I was just rattling it off from memory.

 

[Ancientgamer]

I was sure there were invisible frogs everywhere, and I just needed to invent the right kind of goggles to see them.

I also ate fish food alot.

And fell down from a steep 32 step stairs in my house...


....twice

When I was about 3 or 4, I would always wonder how when people pulled the cord on the bus to request a stop, the bus driver always knew exactly which person had wanted to get off, and where they wanted to get off the bus. (I didn't realize that he didn't need to know WHO the person was, and that the bus route had designated stops, that people knew of.)

i always thought the red buttons on the bus that serve the same purpose as the cord were emergancy stop buttons and was always afraid to press them.

several times i shoved my head under the TV cabinet and it would get stuck every time. but i kept doing it because i was fascinated that i could put my head in but not pull it out.

i broke everything. i loved to fiddle with things and crawl where i was not meant to so i left a wake of destruction in my path.
