    That clowns always looked like a clown. I should spot them out and about, doing groceries and stuff. Like, just the Dad would be a clown. Or, where are the baby clowns; teen clowns, etc?

    If I inhaled over a dead creature, I would steal its soul and it couldn’t go to its heaven. (Sounds like a psycho, grew up heavy southern Baptist)

    Trees were unable to grow to more than 10 feet tall. I clearly had no sense of what 10 feet actually looked like.

    When i was very young (around 3-5) i was giving everyone the middlefinger, because people laughed when a ~4y.o. does it. Only till my Mom told me, that it meant ‘i like you’. Of course, I immediatly stopped doing it. Can’t remember how long i believed it, but probably an uncomfortable long time.
