So we were playing a game in chat just now called "Is It Poisonous?" Where foa (or fonzie) would link to an image of a flower/mushroom and we had to guess if it was poisonous or not.

I'm... really bad at this game. Despite all my years of practice in Oregon Trail 5th edition, I just can't cut it.

What about you? If you were thrown out into the wilderness and had to survive, would you be able to?

I have honed my survival techniques with hours upon hours of Minecraft. Come at me, bros.

I'd probably be dead in like, an hour.

I didn't do so well either with stuff I wouldn't normally seek out. That being said I think I could do okay by knowing three or four things each season that are edible. And I would ignore the rest unless I had a book on it. Pike when I get a book we will learn together~

I probably wouldn't fair too badly. since ya know, I already basically live in the woods.

I'd go full feral and eat anything living. Living things are rarely poisonous to eat. Especially people.

If I were found in a day or two, maybe. Otherwise, probably not. I'm not in very good shape and I don't really have that many wilderness skills.

Cut two squares in the middle of two sticks such that they connect like an x

stab some bait on the right side (+)<~

Balance a rock over the bait, leaning against the top.

Voila, dinner

Bear Grylls taught me to drink my own piss, so I'll be fine!

I'd travel to the coast, meet some big-titted mermaids and live off their milk. Or possibly whale milk. I don't know yet.

I think it's the other way around, mister. We were killing time for Pike until Huxley got there. And I am really into plants lately.

I have no idea what's going on but I demand to be a part of this.

I was doing okay until foa started posting mushrooms. They all look so yummy!

Pssssh...you know what is guaranteed to be edible?

People.

Seriously, though, while I wouldn't necessarily thrive, I'm good enough to know a few things that ARE edible, and go from there.

My death would be a glorious how-to guide on how not to do anything.
