When I was a child, maybe 10 or so, I used to envision these odd scenarios where I would have to do something extremely simple, but if I messed it up the world would be destroyed. I never know how or by whom or why these silly existential situations were being concocted. 

But as I imagined it I was given a clear task, and if I somehow couldn’t throw a stone 10 feet, or failed to do a hopscotch course, or didn’t eat my whole hot dog; that was it kablamo, goodbye earth. 

I wonder what that was about?

I also remember having that kind of thoughts

Almost the same, that any bad thing could happen, not just that the world would be destroyed

Interesting. Any similarities or differences you remember?
