I used to believe that drinking lager gave you a moustache. This came about when I saw 2 pics of my dad. In the first he had a pint glass to his mouth and in the second he'd put it down and was smiling drunkenly at the camera. He had a small moustache in the photos, but at the time I saw them he was clean shaven, hence my belief that the drinking of the lager (where I couldn't see the moustache) gave him the moustache in the second photo.
