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.

Showing my wrinkled old...
When I was around 6 years. My mother, who was always trying to get culture into us young'uns, insisted on my watching the "Portrait of Dorian Grey" a movie about a man who sells his soul to the Devil. Dorian never grows old, but a painting of him does.
Already about terrified of crabs, bugs, Ect. I saw the face of the old man in the painting in anything with a frame. Mom is just at wits end with this problem and gives me a childrens asprin. "It'll go away if you take this!"
Not from my parents, but from the scoutmaster! You should have listened to what I would have to do in order to join the Boy Scouts. Goodbye to the sadomasochistic 60's!
