Have you SEEN Minibar prices!!

Rent used to be affordable

They usually do. No Ma do not send the nice lawyer man from Nigeria money to unlock your mysterious non existent inheritance.

Yep heard that one

Big fat lie that one

Well it’s not a good idea still

Because it's distracting when someone turns the light on. Plus in the UK the police can pull you over if they think its distracting you and you should not show anything out the back window apart from a red light.

My ex was brushing his teeth over a metal sink when lightning hit the ground next to his farmhouse and he got shocked by it.

I got the cracking your knuckles. Never got arthritis.

Oh no.

Yeah my math skills now suffer because of my phone

Tommy can’t have that executive job because he pulled Jenny’s plaits in 1st grade

Well, feeding wild animals often makes them dependend and unable to survive on their own.

Or you'll die of lead poisoning if you got pencil lead on you. School was scary

I thought a swan would break my arm at least once in its life

i literally ate an entire burger 5 minutes before swimming and i didnt get a cramp :D

Tbf scientists advised this at the time because “ vigorous exercise directs blood flow away from the digestive area to the skin and to the muscles in your arms, legs and skin. So, if your food is still half-digested this could make you nauseous”. And it was also suggested if this happened and you got a cramp or stitch you wouldn’t be able to swim, thus the worry of drowning. But those studies were done on endurance athletes and scientists no longer advise we need to wait an hour :)

As a teen, we would play basketball in the summer evenings right after dinner. I would always get a cramp in my abdomen because the blood needed for digestion was being used by my legs and arms.

I was left at home every summer I had a pool I found out that was a lie when I was like eight

LOL i tell this to my sister

I don't understand why this one is listed multiple times. Has nobody really done physical activity right after eating and gotten a horrible debilitating cramp? This is real life people, it happened to me literally yesterday

Not liars exactly just lazies who did not want to delve.

And again. Defiantly the most used one

Any seeds. I always had fear for my guts

I remember the dandelion wine, dandelion greens salad, etc... but the one we always heard was that if you take a buttercup and hold it to your chin, your chin would turn yellow if you liked butter. It's been decades since I've seen a buttercup...

"Quadrangular eyes" was the usual scare here.

Embarrassing, but I love raw meat, and when mom would take a roast out to cook, I'd cut pieces off to eat. That's when Dad decided I was a vampire. To this day, (and I no longer really eat meat), were I to order a steak, I automatically blurt out that I want it so rare it has a chance to escape, it's ingrained into me).

Too much sugar just before bed can make you wake up with a bad headache; it is like a sugar hangover.

Or "it will be in your stomach for 7 years"

"another brand of wack" 😂

So many things would "give us worms". At nearly 40 I'm still worm free

Tangled in your intestines

Again. This was a popular one

If you sit on a radiator you'll get piles.

I remember at a young age I had a friend who thinking back had some sort of I guess birth defect or something. (Not trying to be mean I just literally don't know because it was a long time ago.) But anyway I was friends with this kid, like he was great, but I genuinely thought he made a face and got stuck like that🙃. Thanks for telling me that if you make a face too long it'll stick, mom!
