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.

Stolen ComputerMy dad came in from work one day and gave me a bin-liner with a computer inside for me to try out.
Well - I couldn't get it to work, and there was a crack in the case at the front of the keyboard.
I must have overheard something they were saying, because I went into the kitchen and explained that it didn't work...
"Yes, and there was a crack in the case as well, probably when it fell off the back of that lorry you were talking about"
