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 mum is so dirty...when I was little my mum and my aunt had great fun playing with my gullibility...
once at the seaside we bought some winkles, prawns and jellied eels from one of those little mobile stalls. I, being curious, asked what winkles are and she replied that they were prawns willies, and they cut them off and sold them seperate because they were the best part.
she also used to pick all the whole bits of squid out of paella and show me the beak, telling me it was a squids willy.
Of course, while I understood what a willy was, having been told about where babies come from properly at the tender age of 4, it did leave me with some strange ideas about what men had in their pants for quite a while...
