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.

Stop this sick filth!My parents had no qualms about telling us fully fledged lies - waxing lyrical about santa and his elves. The fact that they dragged me and my sisters round argos on christmas eve unfortunately wasn't enough to tip us off. It's no wonder really after they went to such lengths to back up their lies. Each christmas eve they would give our west highland white terrier a trim, placing several white hairs in the glass of tennent's extra strength we had left our for the old fella himself. My dad would take a bite out of the carrot, leaving very reindeer like teeth marks with his falsies. Needless to say we were pleased to see that santa had visited but also concerned about what type of degenerative illness could cause him to lose quite so much hair all in one go.
