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.

My parents were just confusing"What's syphilis?"
"It's the tube that connects your mouth to your stomach."
"What's a prostitute?"
"Like a catholic, except they worship a different God."
And after some confusion about the phrase "A twinkle in the milkman's eye",
*pointing at Milkman* "All those people are going to have babies?!"
"Depends on what milk they buy."
