Is that a picture of guy holding a miniature suitcase with his toes? Okay. I've reached the end of the internet.

too long for toes also you have to have fucking weird feet to bend your toes like that, he just has fat fingers

#14 one potential cause for this is pharmaceuticals contaminating water supplies https://www.usgs.gov/water-science-school/science/pharmaceuticals-water
DietCokeIsMyDrugOfChoice
If that's the case, wouldn't the potatoes have *all* the pharmaceuticals present in water supplies, not just these ones?
JeezusJuice
I would not expect that at all. Different chemicals bind to different receptors, and potatoes won’t have receptors for all chemicals. Not to mention the hypothetical changes that might occur as the chems move through other substances. Who knows what gets filtered by the dirt and clay and whatnot. We’d need a **lot** more information to draw any strong conclusions.
Horus175
I will grant you that it merits more investigation but I think this is a much more likely explanation that the fact that potatoes somehow naturally produce incredibly complex pharmaceutical chemicals.
astrangehop
They already produce loads of different alkaloids.
JeezusJuice
I agree. I don’t know how or when benzos were first found in them, but we’ve known about benzos for a long time, and we’ve known about potatoes for a really long time. What’s the probability that these chemicals were missed for however many years before they were first discovered in potatoes? It has to be astronomically low.
JeezusJuice
“astronomically low” doesn’t really make sense, but I can’t think of the right term, and I’m sure everyone gets that it means a lot of zeroes after the decimal, but it’s awkward phrasing, nonetheless.

#44 Pretty sure this was debunked ages ago, with things added to the originals to try and change the meaning.

"For the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil .... " 1 Timothy 6: 10 KJV (Sunday school taught me that one)
"For what profit is it to a man if he gains the world but loses his soul." Matthew 16:26 KJV (Castlevania: Symphony of the Night taught me that one)

This has a couple of them debunked.

Pretty much, though the Blood/water "new" version did actually have similar old proverbs in some non-English languages. I'd also note that some of the "new" versions (notably "Great minds..." and "Curiosity killed...") are over 100 years old now. So while the image is wrong to claim they are originals or misquoted, there is some historicity behind even the new versions now.
RufusPimperton
Longevity of the new versions isn't the problem, it's declaring the revised version as the "original" as if it's some lost truth modern society has lost. By all means, adopt the new version if you like it, but the way they're being presented encourages a lack of critical thinking.
JeezusJuice
I had no idea historicity was a word.
OtherPlayers
It's a fun word! The concept shows up a lot if you ever make a study into older (often semi-mythological) history accounts. For example it shows up when studying King Arthur, the Trojan War, early Rome, or Biblical history; where we have evidence that parts of what they say probably happened, but other parts may have been merged, changed, or added on later.

It is now. English is fucky like that.
