Lies Your Parents Told YouI once overheard a neighbour use the phrase "nig nog". I asked my father what it meant. As quick as a flash he said, "It's a type of biscuit. A bit like a hobnob." Can you beat this? BTW: We're keeping this thread open for an extra week as we're enjoying the stories so much.

Lies my father told me...My father practised OBS/GYN and was often called to the hospital to deliver babies and do other "lady" type operations. The calls from the hospital often came at dinnertime and we kids often heard the conversations. After many times hearing these initials, I finally asked my father, "Dad, what's a DNC?" My father thought for a moment and quickly replied, "That's stands for Dusting 'n' Cleaning."
