A guy at my club was known for sometimes playing the Grob. He never played it against me in a long game, but he did try it in a blitz tournament. The game went 1.g4 c6 2.f4 e5 3.f5 Qh4#. After the final move he exclaimed "That's the second time I did that!"

The amount of times black plays Nf6 . So you just play g5 and they look stupid. haha
It's aesthetically ugly, I know that.
e4. Best by test.
People who play g4 probably also limp most of their hands
You can get the same 'busting people's prep' effect you get with the Grob, simply by learning sidelines of more sound openings.
I played the London a bit but hated it because so many people prep against it.
The grob is excellent.
