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.

Father Christmas
I once set up a Father Christmas Alarm so that I could meet him. Yards and yards of fine (nigh-on invisible) wire strung around the room, tied to something noisy balanced on the edge of a table. I was very annoyed with my Mum for setting it off before Father Christmas had visited.
