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.

I hate turkey.
As a kid, and even now, I really never liked Turkey. Only during Thanksgiving do I eat the stuff. One Thanksgiving forever tainted my Turkey cravings. We usually cut the turkey and bring it to the table instead of carving it at the table. When I was around 9, I reached for the juiciest, most appealing piece of turkey that caught my eye, which at the same time the rest of the family avoided. As I was munching away happily, I noticed my two demon brothers laughing away in the corner. My godmother told me "Don't mind them, mija, the FUNDILLO is the best tasting part", "umm... what's the fundillo?" My brother piped up: "THE TURKEY'S ASSHOLE!!!"
