Have you heard of them before you read this thread?
if so where and when.
I’m curious, I ddidn;t make them up and I don;t think the person i heard about them from did either, so where’d the myth come from?
I’ve never heard about them.
Do you think I should ask my psychology teacher about them tomorrow?
mumsnet, huh? 
At the moment “backcombed beasties in the bog” is a googlewhack. Not for long though, I’ll bet.
Hadn’t heard of them before this. The conversation was full of abbreviations I’m not familiar with. What exactly was the context?
Context is discussion about the santa claus (SC) myth and when and what you tell your children about SC. My arguement is that SC is no more or less real than BCBITB (back combed etc) , only to find that no one else had heard of BCBITB.
Most common Mumsnet abreviations- DD , DS, DC dear son/daughter/child add a number to identify which child if you have multiple.
