My mum told me that the peas I had to eat are actually alive, somehow that got me eating the peas. And she'd make the sound "Ahhh!! Ahhh!!"

So to hear them scream more, I ate more and happily munched away.

Explains why I have a somewhat violent tendency. E.g. "Don't make me rip your head off and pin it against the wall."

Not that I'd do it.

My dad told me that if my parents are asleep (at that time, I was still the only child) and if I was awake, I have to close the large glass balcony doors so the witch wouldn't get me and eat me.

I think I very, very quickly closed the doors and stay as far away from them as possible and hid in my own bed (and end up falling asleep).

They are alive

As are all vegetables.

We convinced my brother that something was in the toilet.

Water.

My brother told me that there were evil things that came into the house early mornings on a Sunday, called the Gluey Wooeys, and to escape them I had to hide in his bed with him so they thought that I was a big boy, and didn't get coated in Glue.

This is the same brother that told me he was Jesus.

Wow...our relatives made up a lot of crazy stuff when we were kids.



Well, not by the time you eat them. *kills some vegetables* (I'm not a vegan because I love animals, it's because I hate vegetables.)

This reminds me of how my parents used to tell my sister that her broccoli was a tree and if she didn't eat it, gnomes would move in. I never saw why this would make me want to eat it, but it worked for her. She was kind of afraid of gnomes.

That is very funny XD

I had a friend that used to tell me he was really a fairy that lived in a cavern of gold hidden inside a tree in his back yard. Whenever I would have a sleep over at his place he would crawl under my bed and start talking in a high pitched voice about his fairy exploits =/

Ahahahahaha. That's priceless!

I used to tell people I was a twin, and that my sister lived in Oklahoma with my aunt and uncle because my parents couldn't afford to keep both of us, and she was a very bad girl.

I was able to ramp up that story when I was 13, because I showed up in a panoramic picture twice. We were on a school trip in Washington DC, and I won the "prize" of getting to start at once sie, listen for the photographer to yell go, then dash behind everyone and run to the other side, thus being in the picture twice. With "evidence" it was even easier (and more enjoyable) to keep up the story of my twin "Sarah Jane". ^_-

That is interesting. My dad and his best friend used to do the same thing. The joke behind that was that my dad is of European decent while 'my uncle' is of Japanese decent.

I sort of think my half-sister and I are twins, just because we were born in the same year, only five months apart. I think I almost convinced her of that too.

Speaking of my sister, her name is Sarah, but my dad has her convinced that she is in the witness protection program and her real name is Sally. He still keeps the trick alive by calling her Sally and writing Sally on letters to her.

Both me and her are the easiest members of the family to fool

I think my dad did that and when I was in primary school, I was very much tempted to do that Except I was crowded by quite a number of people.

I still have the scrolls of school photos

Speaking of broccoli, I used to make a hole in the middle of my bowl of rice and stick it there so it looked like a tree. I think I did the same with cauliflowers. Sometimes I make more holes to stick more little bits in between so I would have a forest.

That was because my mum tried to make me eat them, so she told me to stick it there and eat the tree so I'd grow taller. -headdesks- She also told me not to eat the seeds of fruits because they might grow in my stomach and stick out of my face. Which got me a little too nervous because I'd spend ages picking the seeds out, especially for watermelons.

It's amazing how many "lies" your parents tell you about vegetables and fruits.

That brings back memories. Ones like: dogs don't like french fries (my dog and especially my dad's dog loves them), asparagus is good (it is not! it is too bland for my tastes), milk is bad for fish (okay. That was just because I poured my milk in the fish bowl when I was may moons younger), best of all, never eat raw meat (now I'm a sushi addict and I don't mind my beef to be a little pink on the inside). Food stories are always the best ones to tease kids with

My dad installed a new thermostat in our house in the hallway when I was about 4. Then he told me that if I touched it, it would explode. I believed him. ^^;

A few years later I gathered up some courage and poked it. It didn't explode after all. ^^;

Oh, the things our parents will tell us so we don't mess with things.

1. Santa Claus
2. Tooth Fairy
3. Easter Bunny
4. Mysterious causes of blindness
5. OH NO! Microsoft is cloning huge attack dogs to further it's goal of total global domination!

Actually, I still believe that last one.

Ha! When the dogs attack and I'm the only one wearing kevlar underpants, I'll have the last laugh!

Please. That is crazy. They are genetically modifying giant vampire rabbits Duh!

One crazy theory along those lines that I have actually convinced a few other people about: I believe that somewhere in Japan that there is a button that will blow up all of the electronics in the world. It is a little far fetched, especially since I love my PS2 and Gamecube so much, but it makes sense given all of the times the word 'Sony', 'Sega', or any other Japanese company appear with just a brief glance around my, my dad's, and even my technophobe mom's entertainment areas.
