Debunking
Space Pancake - The Germans do have a word for fluffy. (I asked my German housemate. Not sure on the spelling but it sounds like "fluffsich") And the quote was in Blackadder Goes Forth, not Blackadder III.

Dan J - Eminem rhymes "oranges" with "syringes" and "hinges" on the album The Eminem Show.
There is a little-used word "grunth" that rhymes with "month"
"Silva", meaning a wood, is an exact rhyme for "silver" in that they are pronounced exactly the same way.
