I was maybe eight years old.

For some reason that I don't recall, my father said to me, "Up your nose!"

I said, "Up yours!"

What I meant was, "Up your own nose, Dad". I had no idea that the phrase "up yours" usually refers to an opening in your body that has nothing to do with your nose.

To quote Senusret I, I got my ass WHUPPED.
