Somebody on Twitter decided to hold a ‘catharsis session’ while asking fellow Twitterati “What is the dumbest thing you believed as a child?” and let’s just say, many old graves were opened thereafter. People, who are generally found busy making memes and scrolling through their Facebook, Twitter newsfeeds, were quick to come up with some of the bizarre things they were convinced of, as kids. Umaima Baig from Pakistan asked this to her followers on April 9 and the answers have been, safe to say, fascinating. From innocent “That all the cartoon characters exist in real life” to eye-openers like “Woh bade hain jo bol rahe hain Sahi hai, maan lo (they are older to you, so what they say is right)“ it seems Twitterati had a lot to talk about.
Check out the responses Baig got, some of which are sure to leave you cracked up!
