This is a question Lies Your Parents Told You

I 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.

tarmac
not so much a lie as the gulibility of my childhood self.

when about 5, walking to school with my mum we passed a drive that had been recently retarmacced, i asked my mum what all the warning signs and tape meant and she told me that if i stood on the drive i would stick there forever. never to be free again

i don't think i could stand on the piece of tarmac for about 2 years, so convinced was i that i would stick there forever.
