imps
gremlins
cattle mutilations (by aliens, anyway)
alien abductions (with or without rectal probing)
life has a way of working out
that God won't ever give you more than you can handle
dressing for success
power of positive thinking

life is a journey
bad things happening to good people is strange
soulmates
by working harder you will necessarily get ahead

The harder you work, the more you'll have...

If you are nice, people will respect you for it...

You can get rich working for someone else...

That anyone other than your parents,children or spouse really means it when they say they love you...

You get what you give...

You can fall out of love...if you can, you were never in it, only thought you were...

good people only have good things happen to them...

money isn't everything, cause I'd rather have problems having too much money rather than none. The people who say money isn't everything are 1% right, 99% bullshit...

The government has the public interests at heart

OMG, probably one of the biggest myths around. It really all depends on where you go, how you get in, and how fast you can move up. Grad school can help in some cases, but won't guarantee you extra moola.

I don't believe that it's going to cost $625 to fix my freaking car! Come on! Give me some credit-just because I'm a girl doesn't mean you can add on things that "need to be fixed" and I won't know what you're talking about. Arrrrhhhhh!

XO Princess,

I soo totally agree! Thats why when I have car problems I take my guy friends with me.. Geez!

Oh and I don't believe in aliens...I'd have to see it to believe it.

I don't believe in aliens either. BTW why are they always depicted as having superior intelligence? If they exist which I doubt, they must have some stupid ones out there.

OH Curiousgirl, I have to say I believe in 90% of your list!

Most of all I believe in "magic". It's all around us!

IowaHawkeye · #11 02-26-2002, 09:50 PM

i don't believe that good things comes to those who wait - going after what you want and working hard is the only way to get it

justamom · #12 02-26-2002, 10:58 PM

My little household is at basketball playoffs! I'm bored...SO, in keeping with the "spirit" of this really great thread-I don't
BE-LIEVE the government is going to tax our TAX REBATE! Yep, that's right. You have to claim it as INCOME!
I don't believe only the good die young or I'd be dead! LOL
Oswald shot Kennedy ALONE!
O J was innocent
Foster committed suicide.
Clinton didn't inhale!

KappaStargirl · #13 02-26-2002, 11:30 PM

...that the best people for the job are the ones who always get it

...that Internet filters protect children, or anyone else, from anything

...that anyone else besides parents are responsible for their children's behavior (can you tell what kind of a day I'm having?)

...that nice guys finish last. i'm a sucker for nice guys

I don't believe that my apartment complex made such a big fuss about how awesome the parking lot was going to be after they repaved it. I don't believe that "repaving" means putting a strip of black tar down the center. I also don't believe that the tar strip covered up the 15 million speed bumps that are around the parking lot.

I don't believe that I got my ticket to see Dave in May in the mail today.

I don't believe that I got my refund check today in the mail either.
