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.

Not really a lie as such, but...As a youth, I'd never eaten a plum before. Upon asking my father 'What do Plums taste like Dad?', a thin smile curled round on his face, and he replied 'Only women and gay blokes know the answer to that one, son.' Dirty old bugger...
