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.

Fish & Chips
After our dad treated us to Fish & Chips from the chippy for the first time as kids, the next time my mum told me she was going to be making fish and chips herself, I refused, saying I preferred the ones from the shops.
Later, after eating my fish and chips that my dad had gone out especially to get me - they told me they had just wrapped my mums up in newspaper. Grr.
