Desperation is always my first assumption. It makes sense to try it after seeing other animals eat things first too.

Wrong. Aliens taught us everything we know. We are too stupid of a species to figure anything out for ourselves.

...sort of...
I think of weird crap like this too. Especially something like cookies. But its always me thinking that somebody like cavemen figured it out. Hey let's beat this crap into flour and mix it with that stuff that gets you all hopped up. You mean sugar, yep. We need something to bind it together, let's use those things that come out of chicken butts, that brilliant. Now let's dump a few more things in there. Now what, I think we should heat it up. These are good but you know what would make it even better, dunking them in that boob juice from that mooing thing. This is amazing.
Yep I'm weird. Somehow I am still married
Wait, how did you get that pic? Was my webcam on?
I'm sure desperation was early on, as our minds developed I'm sure many things were the results of accident.
Say wine, they would mash grapes into juice and eventually some of the juice sat a bit too long and started to ferment. Then they drank it and said wow!, how do we make more of this?
I'm not sure how accurate this is, but I read once that beer was "invented" in a similar way. A bunch of grain being stored for future use somehow got wet and soaked for awhile and fermented. By the time the people got to it to use, the grain was ruined but they decided to drink the liquid and they liked it enough to recreate it, alter the "recipe" created beer.
Could be total bs but that's what I read once and it stuck.
Have any of you seen the video making the rounds on Facebook of the little girl eating an onion? Pretty funny.
I think that fermenting fruit juices was originally a way to preserve the beverage for future consumption. The physiological effect of alcohol was simply a happy side effect.
I would guess, that milk was watching a calf drink milk and/or also watching a women breastfeed her kid. Thought, well if the wife would let me have some, maybe I can get some liquid off that cow.
You ought to try finding one that works on hair like mine! Natural bristles (horse hair, boar's hair, etc) give you split ends, so I prefer the brushes that look like paddles, with a flexible center portion and widely spaced, soft plastic bristles. I used the same brand for years, then everyone decided they needed to put those stupid knobby things on the ends of each bristle, that look like they melted the ends of the bristles. All those things do is create massive tangles in my long hair. My brushes aren't super expensive, but I have to go through six layers of hell to find a replacement when one wears out.
Popping cartilage is pretty common in alpine skiing. I did. It's because you throw your knees into sideways bends to make your cuts. OTOH, you will almost NEVER see an ankle sprain. Those boots are like armor!
I thought about liking this, but I didn't think I really liked popping cartilage...
Correct, just a Boxsterism since I see them there turkeys there frequently. BTW, not in the woods, residential intersection. Got other names for pathways in the woodies. Saw a flock of robins in Downy Hollow the other day just up the path from Oriole Lane, Warbler Alley and the Woodie Wallow.

It was a long time ago.
A looooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time ago.
I'd hate to have to ask you for directions. I'm confident you know what you're talking about, but I'm equally as confident I wouldn't understand a word you're telling me.
The urban version of the rural guy saying "Go down the road to where the old school house used to be and turn right and drive till you get to the farm the Smiths used to own........."
Anyone ever give you directions using "sees"? I haven't but a buddy of mine told me about it. I think he was in Boston asking for directions and the guy kept telling him things like "you turn left and then go 3 sees then turn right, go 1 see and it should be on your left." Apparently a "see" is how far you can see so after you turn left you find a landmark the farthest you can see in that direction - gas station at the top of the next hill. When you get there it is one "see". Then you find the next landmark as far as you can see - that'll be the second "see", and so on. Craziest thing I have ever heard.
