urban myth
noun
- 1. An amusing story or anecdote, perhaps with an element of truth to it, that is so frequently retold that it becomes common knowledge, eg the belief that traffic police select cars to stop for speeding by their colour so that they conform to the same order as the coloured balls to be potted in snooker.
