Have you ever lived your whole life knowing something that isn’t what you thought it would be? For example, you were today years old when you knew how something works.
Well, you understand the world with bits and pieces of knowledge from what you have been through. Other than learning in our schools and extracurricular activities, we learn through actual experiences, from our grandparent’s stories, and even in movies, that would allow us to make our own conclusions and “oh I see!” moments; remember the “this wasn’t taught in our schools” memes?
Another platform where we really get something is from social media such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and more; just a scroll and you’ll learn a thing or two!
Nowadays, opinions and validations matter (but still be careful about the source of that information!) and if we ever see a statement that would make us have second thoughts, it’s either a funny or a dumb moment.
You’ll see a lot of these funny statements on Twitter that actually make sense when you think about it. Life is full of surprises, and as kids, we have always been in awe of anything and everything that we see on our screens, to the point that we believe anything that our TVs show us.
Here are some completely random things we have at least thought of while growing up—don't deny it because you know it's true!
1. We grew up watching musicals, what did we expect??
10. Better to be prepared than never? Seriously speaking and we all hope we won’t come to a point where we’re set on fire, just prepare. It’ll come in handy one day.
17. So when people say Iceland… it’s a land full of ice? Let’s just say that the actual meaning of “pole” in the North and South Pole is related in Science (try to search for it).
Some tweets will get you searching around Google just to fill your curiosity. But isn’t that a good sign?
At least you’re learning and laughing at the same time! But don’t forget to check your sources and it’s always better to trust and read factual information.
