This is a question Useless Information

Did you know that crabs wee through their eyes? That maidenhair moss is so called because Anglo-saxons thought it looked like pubes? That Albanians have 17 different words for moustache? Astound us with your utterly useless and obscure knowledge.

Champaign anyone?
Most people assume that Moet is French and therefore, don't pronounce the "t" at the end. In fact, Moet Et Chandon were one of several GERMAN-FRENCH wine partnerships. Moet was German (note the umlauts on the bottle label) and so the "t" should be pronounced!
