    People have quickly learned never to take a bet with me, I almost always win.

    My brother and I make stupid bets based on the outcome of CSI, House, Mythbusters, etc. He had to scour Boston for dark chocolate dipped espresso beans when Dr. Foreman turned out to be sick from a water parasite that was in the pot-watering supply of a dead cop.
    Yay, almost nonsensical outcomes of complex plots!

    how not to make bets:

    NEVER, EVER bet on michael bolton. not only does his music shit me, but he damn near cost me my engagement ring.

    i was listening to this shitty song on the radio, and singing along, naturally - and i said, 'god i hate michael bolton'.

    my husband says, 'that's not michael bolton'
    me: 'yes it is'
    H: 'no it isn't' (for 5 minutes)
    me: '5 bucks says it's michael bolton'
    H: 'i know you are SO wrong; let's make it interesting'
    me: 'fine, my engagement ring'
    H: 'sweeeet'.

    i get home - google the ass out of it and find out i'm wrong! to this day - any time i go to take an ill-advised bet, he asks me if i'm pulling a 'michael bolton'.

    it scared me, because i genuinely thought i was right. ack. imagine if i'd bet the ring with someone else. no more michael bolton

    Yeah I once bet a customer that I could make him say the word sorry. I went away for a couple of minutes, came back and purposely mumbled incoherently in his ear at a level he couldnt hear me properly anyway. He turned around and said "Sorry, what did you say?" He was very good about paying up (-:

    Actually, the rappers have a better idea of how to properly pronounce it than most. The most common mispronunciation is Mo-Eh. People assume that since it's French the 't' is silent. Although the creator was born in France, he is a Dutchman.

    The correct pronunciation is Mo-Wett.
