    Braaaaaains Staying Alive

    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 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'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.

    Grin

    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 made one myself for a change! Although you can probably tell that..

    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.

    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.

    Many thanks Christmas!

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