On one hand, it's baffling that some really dumb medical patients refuse to pay close enough attention to understand how their own body works, especially in a life-threatening situation. On the other hand, since doctors exist, it makes some sense that regular people shouldn't be expected to automatically know everything about medicine. On the third hand, the reality that a grown adult might think their lost arm will grow back is as startling as it is disappointing. Wait, that's three hands. Well, case in point.

It's no myth that children are bizarre and stupid. They believe every lie, have a horrible sense of logic, and a lot of them can't read. So it makes sense that many of us remember the incredibly dumb things we believed as children. Some of them even make some sense before you remember how stupid you were.

Twitter users dug up their childhoods to evaluate all the idiotic ways they used to look at the world. Some people had very clever parents.

They say that asking a question only makes someone a fool for a moment, but remaining silent makes someone a fool for a lifetime. These are pretty bad, though. And the sad part is that these people are all still walking around with a thousand other thoughts like these banging around in their skulls.

These people's parents are absolutely diabolical.
