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.

Evil toilets of doom!"If you stay still after flushing the toilet, you can be sucked in and drowned!"
- told to me by my mum when I was 5, giving me a lifetime need to move around the bathroom after flushing, and for a while when I was a kid, leading to the 'quick retreat' method of not flushing until I was about to leave the room, pressing the lever and RUNNING FOR MY LIFE!
