What is your favorite bit of childlore? - Lemmy.World

Childlore is folklore passed directly between children, without the input of adults. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childlore [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childlore] Stuff I can think of off the top of my head are paper fortune tellers, summoning Bloody Mary/the candyman, the cool S, parody songs like “Jingle bells Batman Smells” and “Joy to the world, the teacher’s dead” etc. This stuff has intrigued me since, well since I was a kid. I always wondered where they came from. I never saw adults doing that stuff, so I figured another kid had to have come up with it.

The rumor that existed in every single school that Marilyn Manson had a rib removed so he could suck his own penis

That rumor came up in his autobiography and he wrote -

“If I really got my ribs removed, I would have been busy sucking my own dick on The Wonder Years instead of chasing Winnie Cooper. Plus, who really has time to be killing puppies when you can be sucking your own dick? I think I’m gonna call the surgeon in the morning.”

Side note: Marilyn Manson is a peice of shit.

I’m out of the loop on that one, why is he a piece of shit?

he basically raped and tortured Evan Rachel Wood.

A bunch of women accused him of sexual violence, but nothing is showing up on his wiki.

He also seems to have been a bit of a dick to bandmates

For my generation this was about Prince
