Our funny or strange beliefs or actions from our childhood?

We were remembering old memories with a friend a few minutes ago and this came in my mind so I thought I'd ask you all. I really, really hope I wasn't the only one, who tried to talk to Echo on Skype as a child. I wrote him messages. I called him and when I was about 8-9 years old I didn't even realise it's for... Well, testing the sound. I was literally angry at him for not answering me. I spammed him. Because yes, I thought it's a him. And then for some reason he disappeared from my contacts and I thought he blocked me. So I searched for the skype name echo123 again and whoa, he's there again! Hello Echo, how are you?
Dear developers of Skype... After so many years, I'm really sorry.

What similar cringy or weird things did you do as a child?

I remember as a 4 or 5 year old pretending a sweeping brush was a hoover lmao.

I am still a child, but anyway: Once I was trying to sing a song together with my own echo. It did not work that well but still I was really happy about my little song! LMAO

My parents had, and still have, the washing machine on the first floor of the house, while the bedrooms are on the second. When my parents would start the washing machine, I thought it was following me, because it sounded extremely loud to my child brain, so loud that it felt like it had legs and was running to catch me. So, all the time, if I was somewhere on the first floor and I heard it being started, I would run up the stairs and hope it wouldn't catch me. If it caught me, I thought it was going to put me inside itself with the clothes, and spin me around until I passed out.

OMG very relatable Diana, but with the family frost icecream car. I don't know if you have them in Romania, but they basically drive around the streets, sell icecream and... And play a melody that scared me in my entire childhood. Once we bought icecream from them and I asked the man to play this melody so my phobia might go away. It didn't. Even after a few days the car was following me in my dreams, playing this stupid melody in my ears.

I once heard a warbly ice cream truck melody. I don't know why it was warbling but it did, and that freaked me out a bit. I don't suppose it would do it now that I'm grown but it sure did back then.

Oh my God, Echo123, I remember that thing. I didn't think he was a human and yes, he because he had a voicemail with a guy's voice in Romanian, he couldn't say r propperly too funny enough, as much as I knew he was a bot, I got so upset because he wasn't answering me, you have no idea.
I need to think about others but damn, I remember that so well.

when I was younger, things sounding at all wrong would throw me way off kelter. For example: At our school assemblies, we always started off by singing the national anthem, lead by one of our teachers playing a cuatro that you could electrically amplify. At one of them, something was off. I still don't know what it was but it had to do with a connection going to the amplifier he was using, resulting in me, who was one of the smallest kids in my school back then, and thus at the frunt of the croud, hearing a blend of the instrument it's self along with this terifying sounding far off crackley revurby mess with a side of 60 HZ buzz that this pour amp'd been reduced to. I had nightmares about it for a month.

when i was in pree school i was stupid and thought that the classroom was the entire school itself, and whenever i went out of the classroom i was out of school. so i told my dad i wasn't in school much today and he freaked out then told me the difference between a school and a classroom

Lol.
I mean, my school has a lot of social stuff so if I'm ever included it's not much school anymore. Less so at afternoons.
I often say the school is shit when maybe more than 60% is the classroom, so I mean, I could theoretically see where you're coming from.
