I have to give them credit, they actually consulted a real expert whilst they were drunk. Most people don't, not even sober

To be fair, "do hummingbirds have feet" seems eminently wikipediable. I'd like to think that if I ever felt the need to drunk-dial an expert, it'd be for something less trivial.

But they don't just want the answer, they want to share an experience with the people they're with in a clever and fun way.
