Things We Were Told As Kids That Turned Out Not To Be True. by sichri(op): 12:30pm On Dec 12, 2020
While growing up we were told a lot of "fabus" that turned out not to be true but one can only laugh now when one remember such things. Examples:

1. If you swallow an orange seed or any other seed, it would germinate from your tummy.

2. If you stand on a grinding stone, you would become short.

...add yours.
