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.

Parental liesWhen I was little we'd get about 6 or 7 different icecream vans that would visit at various times. We were told that only one of them washed his hands so that was the only one we could use.
A friend of mine was told that if the ice cream van was playing it's jingle then it meant it had run out of icecream.
