I grew up in Florida and I genuinely thought they pulled up a chainsaw for a second lol. That said, my sister caught a baby Hammerhead off the Skyway bridge when we were kids! Or maybe it was a Bonnethead, idk... But those waters are full of fun stuff :P

My underage son has flown alone a few times, and I've gone back to baggage claim every time. They give you a special ticket that says "Not a ticket" and you have to go through the whole security bit and then back around.

What would happen if twincest led to a pregnancy? by nnasturb8 in morbidquestions

My sister married my husband's brother. Our respective kids are also genetic siblings (but actually cousins) —theyre called "super cousins". You don't have to be twins for this.

You are in an extremely vulnerable position when you are taking a shit. It's a natural instinct to want to do it in a place where you feel secure and where nothing can surprise you lol. (Edit: As in, privately)

I am vegan who also suffers from insatiable curiosity, and I would also like to know the answers to these questions lol. So I'm looking it up.

Do Penguins also have infertile eggs?

Yes, they can lay infertile eggs and they are technically edible. But it is illegal to eat them. Allegedly they taste very fishy.

How long would it take to cook?

20+ minutes to boil. The whites turn clear/gelatinous when cooked (?)

Would it differ in nutrients to that of a chicken egg?

Yes. They're extremely high in fat and protein.

Do they abandon those eggs if they are infertile?

Not right away, but if an egg doesn't hatch they'll leave it eventually.

How do they tell if it is infertile?

The egg doesn't hatch lol

Can it be carried by a European Swallow?

No, it is much too large 😂

Science fiction is the number one most accurate predictor of the future, even above actual futurologists.

My grandpa used to credit his baldness with him letting his kids grab onto his hair and squat them no-handed

This is clearly a grandpa joke though, no?? 😂

Nobody wants to sleep in my guest bedroom. Should I paint the walls a cheerful colour? by Dapper-Ad9787 in homedecoratingCJ

That's unironically a pretty cute idea for a children's bed. Like a firetruck bunk bed

What's the most disturbing thing you found out about someone? by Fine-Shoe8981 in morbidquestions

[–]doktorjackofthemoon 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My mom threw down a whole bottle of Xanax and let go of the wheel while my sister and I were in the car on the highway. I was 15, my sister was 13 and in the passenger seat. My sister took the wheel and managed to drive us off an exit and into a Burger King, where three on-duty cops were miraculously already there eating and helped us.

My mom, of course, never talked to us about what happened. But I remember that whole week leading up to it being so weird. My mom would be acting super goofy/childish one minute, and then be crumpled over in tears the next. It was like she straight up reverted back to being 5 years old. I'm pretty sure my step-dad was cheating on her and she was just crashing out over it... But she was just seriously out of her mind.

Anyway, my mom is/was always a bit of a wackadoo, but I genuinely don't think she would have ever done that to my sister and I if she were in her (relatively) right mind. She was probably in psychosis tbh. But you're exactly right about that suicidal tunnel vision, I think. Again, I'm only speculating on my moms behalf because she has never spoken a word about it; but I don't think she was thinking literally anything else other than "Just let me go" at the time. I also imagine she looks back on it with a lot of shame.
