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.

Damn parents!My mother used the phrase "Smells like a whore's handbag" quite often though she was 'considerate' when us kids were about and changed it to "smells like a horses handbag" which sounded perfectly acceptable to me until I got into my late teens. Damn.
