I thought in Harry Potter when they “sacked” Professor Dumbledore that they twisted his nutsack AND then fired/expelled him.
Suffice it to say, Chamber was far more dramatic and high-stakes for me than it needed to be.
Let’s go, come clean Lemmingz
I misunderstood what “war machine” meant.
I heard phrases on TV like “it cost $1 billion dollars per month to keep the war machine running” and “the US captured 100,000 barrels of oil per day to feed the war machine” and I thought this thing must be some epic beast.
The terrorists better watch out! We’re sending the war machine! It must have, like, sawblade hands and tank tracks and breathe fire and have machine gun turrets.
Imagine my disappointment when I learned that THE WAR MACHINE was just a metaphor and not a Mecha Godzilla

“Dumbledore, I’m afraid you’ve just put the students in danger one too many times. We’re going to have to sack you; then you’ll be asked to resign.”
“We understand this puts you in a b’it of a bloody bind”
When reading books about Robin Hood: “Robin Hood hated bloodshed”
I thought it was a literal shed. Where people fought and bled inside.
Is that like Thunderdome?
Is that like a spherical thunderbox?
Robin Hood HATES this one outdoor shed 😂
5th grade. I knew what cloning was, but had never heard the word “Cyclone” until an ill-fated English lesson at school.
I actually raised my hand and asked the teacher why she was referring to a tornado using a term for genetic replication. She didn’t know, “Genetic Replication”.
There’s awkward, then there’s that moment. 🤦
This post is one cluster fuck of misunderstanding

Sorry comrade, Seems like everyone else had no problem, off-topic folks like yourself are the minority here (more alone than not), I’m afraid.
Maybe try to have a little fun and see if you can remember anything that you misread or misinterpreted as a child. Kinda the whole point of the thread but it takes all kinds I suppose🤣
Trying to read the word “raucous” out loud for the first time. I came up with something like “raw-shus”.
I thought the word initiative was “inna-ty-ay-tive” 🤣
Edit: that’s a pretty good (less funny) guess, better than Raw-Koose
I thought the word faucet was both pulled and pronounced flaucet until I was 18. Nobody ever called me on it for some reason.
I chalk it up to dyslexia and the infrequency of encountering the word.
