I dont remember the age, but it was before Kindergarten, thought men came into the house at night to load the next days shows into the TV.

So many things…
I didn’t understand how lie detectors were supposed to work so I thought you could hook someone up and ask something like “does god exist” and you’d be able to get answers to all of life’s big mysteries.
I thought there was a left and right sock
I thought wolverines were mythical creatures
I thought if I tried hard enough I could somehow become older than my older brother like it was just a title or something
Thanks to DARE any time I saw a skittle with the S missing I thought it was drugs even in a newly opened package
I could go on…
I wanted an older sibling as a child and I remember trying to convince my parents they should have another baby. In my mind, if I just waited (my age +1) years, I’d then have an older sibling. It never ocurred to me that I would also age during that time…
I’m surprised an older sibling was something you wanted, usually you want to be the oldest.
In my case I just wanted a friend lmao
I was an only child and I just wanted someone cool to play with me who I could look up to. Also all my older cousins picked on me and I wanted defence lol
Your comment about your brother reminds me that in kindergarten I thought that the line order (alphabetical) had something to do with status. My last name starts with C so I was pretty close to the front, but I had a friend with an A for a last name, so I really wanted to move up.
I told no one of this of course until long after I’d grasped how alphabetical ordering worked myself.
The alphabet is in that order because of the song.
Wait a minute…
If your feet are big enough, left and right socks are indeed a thing
My feet are normalish (well, far too wide but normal length) and my running socks are left and right.
Wide is big. I’d argue that the width is the more relevant dimension.
TIL; wolverine is an actual fuckin’ animal!!!
I hope you’re about 25 because this is basically how I found out lol

My son was PISSED when I explained how his older sister would, in fact, always be older. He was sure he’d catch up.
You can buy socks that have a left and right, but most don’t.
For example for sport and hiking. Those have support structures that need to work differently for the side they are worn on.
And some brands (Polo) put a logo on alternating sides.
