I just came across spurious-correlations. The site includes visualised correlations between random facts.
To name an example and you might have never guessed that: the number of people who drowned by falling into a pool correlates with the films Nicolas Cage appeared in. No joke!
These graphs are golden and I'm sure they'll come in handy when I'm in yet another causation and correlation discussion.
