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.

A lie I told my girlfriendApart from all the obvious ones that boyfriends tell, I once told her that "vol-au-vent" was French for "death package". She believed me.
I also told her the collective term for (computer) mice was "meeces", "because calling them mice would be stupid".
I can't wait to have kids.
