mine revolve around food.
1. jello: My mom told me jello gave you hardening of the arteries and I completely believed her for the longest time. I mean .. at least that is somewhat logical I suppose.
2. eggs: 9th or 10th grade home ec we were going over all the different parts of an egg. Teacher calls on me and asks what the air sac and albumen are. My immediate response, thinking I was brilliant because my older sister had already told me -- The air sac was where the baby chick used to be, and the white stuff was dead baby chick.
3. my sister (10 yrs older than me, I think she was around 20ish) holds up one of those sample viles of perfume and says I dare you to drink this. Thinking that she put water or something in it , I took it from her and downed it. It was polo cologne ... my burps smelt like polo for hours. She was begging me not to tell my parents, she called poison control, and was making me stick my fingers down my throat. I could not smell that cologne for such a long time without gagging...

during elementary school janine and johnny were kids who lived on our block for a few years... best friends by default of location... janine my sister's age, johnny mine... when my parents bought their house the basement was unfinished... dad built a bedroom, laundryroom and a wall of HUGE cedar closests... one of which we called the game closet... with SUPER sturdy homemade wooden shelves (3 to 4 feet deep) and PACKED with every board game imaginable... anyway, janine and johnny were over one day and for whatever reason i told them there was a dungeon below our basement... the game closet was the secret elevator... they called bullshit so my sister and i came up with an idea... she was the only one who knew how to operate the elevator controls (since oldest) and i was the only one who could go into the dungeon because my pet dragon stayed down there... (too much munsters watching i guess =) anyway, she and i went into the closet and kevin shut/ guarded the door... we super quick pulled all the games off a lower shelf... i climbed in all the way to the back and she filled it back in with games... when she opened the door back up i was in the dungeon... janine and johnny were dumbfounded... i could see them looking around (through slight spaces between games) and could barely contain my laughter... their parents called later that night... we didn't get in trouble though... our parents thought it was hilarious...

This is embarassing, but that's what this group is all about, isn't it? When I was a toddler...I'd guess 3 or 4...I sleep walked one night and somehow ended up at the door of the closet in my bedroom. I opened it up, evidently thinking it was the door to the bathroom, and then I whizzed all over my toys. My mom was soooooooo freakin' upset with me, but she said and did nothing to me due to this incident (she didn't have to). I never did that again...haven't even sleep walked that I remember either.

In middle school I had this Geometry teacher that had a glass eye and it/he never looked directly at you when addressing you. Mr. Math would get sooo angry with me because I was always talking during his class. One day I had to stay after class for, what else, talking and he asked me, "How come when I tell you to stop talking you just flat out ignore me?' I replied, "Oh! You were talking to ME?? I couldn't tell because one of your eyes was looking at the girl next to me."

hm... when i was little, my sister and i used to have life-like babydolls, and we would have competitions as to who could take care of their baby the best... we dragged those things all over the house, talking to them, naming them, even pretending to feed them! i can never say i dont have the motherly instinct... haha. i also used to say "happy new ear" instead of happy new year
My parents used to make me sing whenever we had guests over. I was so shy that the only way I could sing was to stand in the hallway so no one in the living room could see me.

Share about all those stupid things you did. Funny pronunciations, statements and the like are grand too.
