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.

The only lie I really rememberThe only one that sticks is this ridiculous one that a primary school teacher told me. Apparently, some people reckon there's this thing called 'sin' which is bad for you, and some big beardy bloke who lives in the sky (but who you'll never meet till you die) HATES you for having.
Makes no sense at all.
