When I was a little kid I thought gas only cost $2.00 or whatever the rate was at the time to fill up your whole tank. So I didn’t understand when people would complain about it costing a lot of money.

Ay...used to be in the backseat like

" it's only $2 and some change. Why she making a big deal over $0.15?"

Always wanted to see what was off screen when watching TV, so I would try to press my face against it as much as I can to see if I can peek past the borders.

I thought all the empty colorful crack viles littered on the ground and building lobby were candy for adults . I remember the guy at candy store on 159th & Amsterdam selling them to the adults while I was trying to cop sweetish fish and 1 cent Fortune Bubble gum.

When I read the newspaper’s tv listings, I thought “Off Air” was a good long television program

When my mom bought me my first ever shoes that said Nike air on them I thought I could dunk. Anybody used to just randomly run in the house and try to dunk by grabbing the thing in the doorway? Yep, I thought I was about to be Jordan out here. I had noooo hops though I was like maybe 5 or 6 at the time lol.

breh I was the same. I use to think Nike shoes had actual springs on them or some shyt and allow you jump higher than regular shoes.


Also, when I was a kid there was all types of outrageous lore about Michael Jackson's concert performances. There were rumors going around that the man knows how to fly and did it on stage. Me and all my friends believed it. Michael Jackson can fly.

I used to think that after a certain hour, the radio played unedited music…

My dumb ass used to try and stay up til ungodly hours trying to see if I was right…

I use to think after certain hours there was porn on TV.

I was right. Shout out to Bronxnet public access television.

I could make up $2 in change.

My parents would always tell me that though

Classic Mom Myth bro. TV screens don't turn you blind. Microwaves don't give you cancer either.

Our parents said that shyt to get us to watch less TV than we wouldve otherwise.

Busted my first nut to a playboy magazine. I thought I had AIDs and was going to die in a few days. I was scared as fukk.
