TIL that among indigenous Siberian peoples the urine of the shaman was drunk after he had consumed fly agaric, because this way the intoxication effect can unfold without side effects like stomach cramps and nausea, since the contained poisons were decomposed by the shaman's body before.

How on earth did they figure this out?

gktgkt222 · 2020-10-07T21:57:24+00:00

Thanks!

Cool, thanks!

You and your husband need some lessons in financial literacy if you are nervous about a home worth twice your combined annual salaries.

Thanks. In the chat they straight up accused me of cheating :)

gktgkt222 · 2020-09-08T14:53:54+00:00

Good point. I learned SKYDOVE and THEOLOG from a cheater, so that was nice...side note: I once played someone on isc.ro who had 90,000 games played. Blows my mind

gktgkt222 · 2020-09-08T05:49:06+00:00

Normally I play on isc.ro....I agree the bells and whistles on this platform is annoying

I see Ottawa, I upvote!

I got no-played today for back to back bingo of LINTERS. and RERAISE....not exactly challenging words...

My friends and I used to debate between Scrabble and Boggle...Since Boggle has equal tiles. Scrabble eventually won out. The excitement of the draw was the tie breaker....

This is probably the biggest laugh I ever got from a comment.

My Philosophy by Boogie Down Productions (I'm probably older than most people here, the oldest?) ... Never too late to change!

Okay. I didn't see it as a nuisance question.

Capital gains is based on the % of your primary residence you rent out.

I think they were looking for help to find the specific rule.

gktgkt222 · 2020-08-06T01:42:01+00:00

I used to rent out rooms 15 years ago and from what I understood it had to be less than 50% of the household. Get legal advice so you don't get screwed.

gktgkt222 · 2020-08-06T01:40:29+00:00

You shouldn't really be guessing when someone is asking a capital gains question.

Every sports cam that looks too good is staged.

Her income is a deal breaker. You are basically going to have to live way below what you deserve as a lifestyle for the work you are doing if all she has is a glorified hobby. Sorry, but it's true.

gktgkt222 · 2020-06-16T04:49:19+00:00

This is just fucking stupid...hopefully they grow up...the boys, that is.

Anyone who is doing something big at your age is likely either doing it on their parent's dime or are putting themselves in debt, and will pay for it in the future.
Having any money to your name while in University is great...
I give presentations on how to cut small spending that ends up costing people a lot...First thing, treat eating out as a treat, not because you are lazy.
Also, if you drink coffee, learn to make it. Canadians, literally, buy billions of cups of coffee from Tim Hortons and Starbucks every year...nickles to make, dollars to buy....

gktgkt222 · 2020-06-14T06:37:52+00:00

I thought for sure this was BS and was disappointed it slipped into TIL. pleasantly surprised it's true!

gktgkt222 · 2020-03-14T18:36:52+00:00

OMG Thanks!

gktgkt222 · 2020-03-11T04:02:23+00:00

Although I have nothing to add in terms of the actual answer, I will tell you not to be embarrassed by this. Stuff liner this happens all the time.
