MY parents didn't lie to me, unless it was about "How Babies Are Made". My grandmother was the one that lied to me. If I were to get a cut (naturally a kid would cry his/her head off) she'd tell me that if I cried my guts were going to spill out of my cut. Which resulted in a hiccup/whimper cry. And she'd also tell me that if I whistled (as was my habit when I first learned how to whistle) in the house after the sun went down, that I was inviting monsters and evil spirits to come into the house. If I'm not mistaken that last bit is an old Puerto Rican wives tale.

I was on "Mr. Toad's Wild Ride" at Disneyland, back when I was 6 or 7. For those of you that didn't catch it or didn't go back then, it was a sit down ride with old Ford model one style cars instead of your regular cars. There was even a little steering wheel in front of me. The first part of the ride was running into this little mural of Mr. Toad and his friend, and when the car hits it, the mural splits apart and the ride goes on.
Anyway, I had my hands on the steering wheel, rolling it this way and that when the mural comes into sight. My father, who had the seat right next to me, starts to scream and point at the mural. He says "Were gonna hit it! It's all real!!! Steer away! For GOD'S SAKE STEER AWAY FROM IT!!! You're gonna kill us!!!" Naturally I freaked out and started crying as I tried desperately to wrench the useless prop steering wheel to the left or right to avoid a head on collision.
Of course I didn't think it was very funny back then, but when I look back on it, I think it's the height of hilarity.

If I sat too close to the TV I'd get bad eyesight...I'm near legally blind now haha. When I made funny faces, especially with my lips they would say don't do that or your face will get stuck like that haha. Opening an umbrella in the store is bad luck, they just didn't want me opening the damn umbrella lol.
