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.

Sometimesin retrospect it's probably better that parents do lie. I once asked my dad 'what's a prostitute?' and straight faced he replied 'someone who shags for a living'. Needless to say that was the only 'talk' I ever got.
