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.

Brotherly loveMy brother and I were babysitting our younger sister while our parents were at a neighbours house. (She was about 8 and we were 14 and 16) We convinced her that night was the night plastic bags came alive and ate people. (over active imaginations)
We had previously placed a plastic bag in the middle of the living room and tied a piece of string to it, trailing it under the couch we were sitting on and up the back. She was shit scared from our 'scary' story.
We pointed out the bag on the floor and almost immediately I tugged on the string, the bag flew toward our couch.
My sister saw this, panicked, shrieked, and leapt about 5 feet to the seat opposite us. (an exceptional jump for an eight year old).
She told our parents and they nearly pished themselves.
She hates us now. Oh well.
