FACT or CRAP ?
CRAP

The hole in the bottom of a lock has two uses. It helps to drain water out of the lock, and the opening also allows access for lubricating the lock.
This is the " hole " truth. <

The flat, wool, pancake-shaped hat known as a beret was first worn by French royalty during the early 1800s.

Crap.

By the Late 1800s, many French royalty were wearing rope necklaces or scarlet chokers.

CRAP

During the 1800s, the flat, wool hats known as berets were worn by the entire peasant class of France and the black beret continues to be the symbol of the peasant class in most of Europe today.
