I always thought the black market was a brick and mortar type place, or an open air market you'd see in an old movie.

I thought the weatherman was saying windshield factor instead of wind chill factor, and that it was some kind of measure of how much ice accumulation was on your windshield in the morning so adults would know how much extra time they would need to deice their windshields and still get to work on time.

"No Trucks Allowed" on certain roads.
"Do not Drink and Drive". I often assumed that it meant to not drink anything at all (even water) while you're driving.

As a teacher, I've had kids confused about black-and-white versus color and thinking it applied to vision--not just TV.
We were studying the American Revolution, and I mentioned the redcoats. A girl asked me why they were called the redcoats, so I explained it. She then asked, "How could people tell their coats were red? Wasn't everything black and white back then?"

Remember how there used to be announcements at airports telling folks where they could "meet their party"? I thought there were actually parties there for them, with balloons and shite. Always wanted them to announce where I could meet my party. Never came man, never came.

A friend of mine thought all cats were girls and all dogs were boys.
I thought black women had chocolate milk in their boobs.

My first grade PE coach told the class that if we misbehaved we would be in boiling hot water. This scared the shite out of me. Every day during PE I was looking for a giant witches pot big enough to boil me in.
After my mother explained to me how my little brothers would nurse I thought chocolate milk came from black people.

When my oldest was around 5. He had his first friend from a different race. He asked the little boy if he was related to the Jacksons. Plus he thought the world was in black and white in the olden days

Before school, my mom always had the Today show on...every morning for years on end I was totally confused when they would say "This is today"...
I always wondered why they needed to tell me that...

I thought if you poured liquids onto things that fully absorbed the liquid, then the whole thing would evaporate given enough time.

When I was a wee tyke, while on a drive my folks would say, "there is the poo-poo plant" as we passed the sewage and water treatment facility. I was always looking at the trees and shrubs outside of the building asking, "where? where?"; thinking 'a plant that poos?!?!' To where they exclaimed, "RIGHT THERE!"
I still don't think I've ever come clean with them that I didn't know what they meant at the time.

I remember the first time I was told to "choke up" on a baseball bat. I was 4 or 5 in t-ball and looked at my dad like he was nuts.
Also, not exactly along the same lines, but I remember being younger and thinking the priest was actually Jesus in church. Parents always talked about Jesus and such and the priest seemed like the most important person in my tiny view of the Catholic Church, so he must have been Jesus.
