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 liesOne Christmas I had a very realistic newborn baby doll which had 'Made in Taiwan' or sumthing of the sort branded on the back and my evil parents told me that I also had my place of origin stamped on my neck. Course I couldn't see it. Twats.
When asking my mother why there was green netting stuff round a building (it was being renovated) she told me it was to catch a giant butterfly.
I had my revenge by becoming a very odd child (and adult). I was once asked what my dimples were for and replied that they were for keeping gravy in. Ha!
