What Was The Most Ridiculous Myth You Were Told As A Kid? by McBrooklyn(m): 5:06pm On Jul 16, 2016 |
Well, If you grow up in a Nigerian household you're likely to relate to this topic very well. Well, The Question Is . . . *** What Were Those Ridiculous Myth You've Ever Been Told As A Kid?? *** I could remember just like yesterday some of those ridiculous myth I've ever being told as a kid. Some myth like: ** If you ever put your hands to tap raindrops inside rain, thunder will strike the person. ** If you ever sit down on a mortar when it's raining and the thunder struck, the person will die, etc. You Can Add Yours Too cc: lalasticlala, seun, mynd44, Fynestboi, Dominique

If you sleep with your legs hanging on the wall, you're a witch and you've gone for your meeting, and then If someone changes your position while sleeping, you won't be able to return to your body when you're done with your witchcraft meeting. Silly myths but fear still catch me when i dey small. |

Lol I was told if I swallowed orange seed, the tree will grow inside me. I think the weirdest was that if I bend down in a market with my head in between my legs, that I will see some people without legs walking or people walking with their heads(ghosts) Another was that if u get a house spider, squash at the back of your palm, you'll be able to climb walls like spierman. I was made to believe that once you start spinning the Holy Rosary(chaplet) round, that Pope and the people at Vatican will also be spinning around, so we were advised to desist from spinning the Rosary. |
