What nonsense did you believe in as a kid?Ever thought that you could get flushed down the loo? That girls wee out their bottoms? Or that bumming means two men rubbing their bums together? Tell us about your childhood misconceptions. Thanks to Joefish for the suggestion.

One of my matesused to pride himself on the fact he always asked for 'chips' in MacDonalds.
Not unexpectedly, the server would often say something like 'er, you mean fries, right?', to which he'd go off on a bit of a rant about American/ English blah blah blah . . .
He looked an utter cock doing it.

That's just dumb. Fries and chips are different, and those serves in McDonald's are fries.

Depends where you are.In the US, I think what you say is correct.
In the UK they're more often than not called chips - what the US calls chips, we call crisps.
So he wasn't entirely wrong, but he was being a dick. In the UK we all know exactly what 'fries' are, there's no confusion.
