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.

just to add insult to injurylater that day he told me that he knew the old woman who lived in the shoe in the nursery rhyme. some years later he went out somewhere (to this day i don't know) and rang me on his mobile. now, i was watching sm:tv at the time, becos live and kicking was shit. he calls up and says to me in a slightly put on accent, that one of my frends had nominated me, Anthony Conway, for a prize. i quickly switched the telly to bbc1, and was told that i was going to get a day of horse riding with franky detori becos of my obbsessive passion for horses. i'd never been horse riding in my fucking life! so i play along. he says that the ppl on the show were going to ring me in a few minutes and i had to act all excited and shit, then he rang me, and told me it was an april fools.
