Tonight I've come to recognize that I'm in my 20's and I'm old as hell. I don't do anything fun or crazy anymore.
Life is almost as boring as it is sad.

QUOTE(Elisabeth Hollow @ Apr 12 2013, 07:32 PM) Something I find really interesting; the species of mushroom "Fly Amanita" is found in the Elder Scrolls games, and has a restore health ability.
Why is this interesting?
The Fly Amanita mushroom in real life is very poisonous and can cause seizures and liver damage.
Now I will credit the gamemakers and say that there IS shock damage in the Oblivion game, and it can be argued that the mushroom is treated to be rendered useful during the alchemical boiling process, such as in real life where the fungi is eaten after paraboiling (partial boiling) but when dried, can cause hallucinations.
Nerded out for a moment there, sorry.
But you have a very good point. Bethesda needs to read up on their mushroom facts

Dude, I'm hurtling towards 40...With the clichd wife, two kids, mortgage and a 60 hour a week job with little money... YOU, are not old...And I'm sure the fun things are still there, you just need to go find different ones to the ones you used to do... Besides, unless you're truly not happy not doing the crazy stuff, all that is, is you listening to other people's need to brag about crazy...Crazy is boring...I did that...I wish I hadn't... The phrase, as a hatter, could be very reasonably tagged to me... My twopenneth...As you were... ...

The chance I'd ever get to use this knowledge is very slim, unless I'm kidnapped and just HAPPEn to be take to a place where Bloodroot grows. Then I can use the sap to toss at my attackers and disfigure them...eventually...XD Or make them dinner with Hemlock as seasoning. Poison mushrooms. Doubt it.

I feel ya.

And yet I am, and live—like vapours tossed. I long for scenes where man hath never trod A place where woman never smiled or wept There to abide with my Creator, God, And sleep as I in childhood sweetly slept, Untroubling and untroubled where I lie The grass below—above the vaulted sky.”
