Childhood Misconceptions.

there's tons of different kinds. at least in America. Dunno about in Sweden. There could be some sort of Swedish root beer conglomerate that I don't know about.
 
the smaller brands are usually better.
Mug and Barq's are okay. But stuff like IBC and Saranac Root Beer are way better.
 
same here. I get it at the movies sometimes. But if you can find it in a store, IBC and Saranac are better. I think (not sure) Saranac is a Canadian company - you might be able to find it. Or it may be out of business. I dunno. I haven't had any in a few years.
 
Soda Streamer ftw in the end. If you haven´t got one fuck off and die. Oh the pleasure of selecting your own flavour in a delicious and refreshing mix of water and carbonide.
 
One time when I was around kinderkarten age, my mom told me that I had a lot of nerve. I already had some idea about what nerves really were though, so I didn't realize she was criticizing my behavior. In fact, I had no idea why she was saying it.

Another time, my dad asked me if I respected him, but I had no idea what that word meant. It sounded like "resent" though, so I figured it had a similar meaning and said no thinking I was being polite. He then spanked me and gave me a long lecture about why I should respect him, but it never occured to him to tell me what it meant and it nevered occured to me that I may have misunderstood the meaning of the word, so I was extremely confused about why he wanted me to resent him so much until I finally learned its true meaning a few years later.

I loved dinosaurs and everything about them, so whenever someone said "drastically," I misinterpretted it as "Jurassically."

I also thought "truck" was "chruck" and "track" was "chrack," until about first grade. After learning about the sounds that different letters make, I thought it was very strange that everyone else insisted that those words were spelled with a T instead of a CH. The same goes for "train / chrain" and pretty much any other word that begins with TR.
 
I thought "explode" and "explore" were the same word.

I also insisted that the song went "up goes the weasel" as opposed to "pop goes the weasel".
