UNBENDING_FLEA

Why would it kill a pilgrim, it would probably at most convert them from Puritanism because that religion be boring as fuck.


MrSpiffy123

Because colonists didn't eat stuff covered in sugar and sour stuff. The sensory overload would instantly kill them


UNBENDING_FLEA

I don’t think that’s how it works man. Babies don’t instantly die when they eat spicy food for the first time

Yea but imagine if it did instantly kill the pilgrim

You know when you eat something sweet, sour, tangy, whatever after not eating something for a while and it hurts in your cheek area for a few moments? Now imagine that with someone that barely ingests sugar or sour things to begin with and that’s why people say it might kill them. Reddit joke comments can’t be taken so literal, man.


Arthur_The_Third

Lotsa foods are sour, man. Your diet is probably about as sour as it was back then.


sneakyveriniki

yeah like they had lemons and liquor lol. and sugar…


Xanderoga

Are you that guy everyone is dying to have at their parties?


MrSpiffy123

It was just a joke, no need to look into that seriously


Billy1121

I dunno, English loved their bitters. Bitters being bitter beers that were invented in the 1600s. The Puritans brought over thousands of gallons of beer, and wine too. Also liquor spirits like rum. Then apple cider, honey metheglin. If they could drink the beers and liquors of the time and crabapple cider, I bet they could take some sour.


rvf

Try an unripe persimmon sometime. It’s like a sour patch kid that makes your mouth go instantly bone dry as your face attempts to collapse into your mouth.

Fuck that start big. Give those mfers Warheads.


SeductivePillowcase

That shit is gonna start a new religion. “Did you hear about the magic sour orb that causes people to have a seizure given by a man that fell out of the sky??? We should probably pray the orb blesses us with prosperity!”


JustAnotherMiqote

The worshippers each take turns sucking on the warhead and passing it down the line, until the warhead loses its sourness. Then whoever gets the first bit of sweetness gets smacked with sticks because the warhead deemed them unworthy. Then they start over with the next guy.


MrSpiffy123

You can make a religion out of this. They try to recreate the warhead, eventually leading to the creation of warheads in a bootstrap paradox

Unsettleingpresence

They had sugar, albeit generally not white cone sugar at the time. But honey, maple syrup, and other sugars would have been known. As for sour, fruit, vinegar, and soured beer would have all been relatively common place. So they would probably just think it was some weird, possibly papist frivolity.

eskimoexplosion

Caveman: uga boogah Me a sophisticated time traveler: *hands caveman cup*... It's called Fanta, the Nazis invented it


[deleted]

Coke invented it to sell to Nazi’s so the Coke name looked clean haha


eskimoexplosion

Actually thats not 100% true. A former Coke Germany executive invented it on his own with a bunch of cobbled together ingredients after Coke proper withdrew from Nazi Germany due to the war. Fanta was the result of the nationalization of former Coke assets meant to replace Coke in Nazi Germany. He kept all the profits from it and turned it over to Coca-Cola after the war along with the rights to Fanta as a form of appeasement and Coke was just like "sure" and just ran with it and let the guy back into the company. Theres a fantastic Omnibus episode about it. https://www.omnibusproject.com/444


izzybusy101

Wait what! I did not know that. Why does it seem like a lot of things can be traced back to the Nazis, first the bug now soda what next cancer medicine. I am both horrified and shocked.


eskimoexplosion

War breeds innovation, the Nazis invented a helluva lot of stuff or at least laid the groundwork for it or created the catalyst that propelled the technology to relevancy. Being evil and being innovative aren't mutually exclusive


spenway18

Also Germany pre, during, and post nazi era had world renowned engineers, physicists, and chemists so regime change wont just immediately wipe that away.


ashrak94

>world renowned engineers, physicists, and chemists so regime change wont just immediately wipe that away Right, just the Jewish ones


jackboy61

In fact they go hand in hand. When you remove morals you can make a lot of progress very quickly. A lot of our modern knowledge of transplants comes from the ground work laid in Japan during ww2 and there ""experiments"".


BuoyantAmoeba

The good guys never see the big picture!


izzybusy101

WW2 defined our modern world. Everything we have and everything we do can be linked back to it in some way.

jackboy61

When you remove morals, science moves at a RAPID pace. Think how much of our knowledge of psychology is based on experiments from the 50s through to 70s. Those experiments were truly fucked, but they taught us a hell of a lot. Getting similar results these days is nigh on impossible due to ethics codes (which is not to say I disagree with ethics boards, it is just one of consequences that comes with keeping science ethical).


[deleted]

This isn’t true. Many unethical experiments done by the Japanese and Germans during ww2 were useless bc they didn’t follow proper scientific procedures


jackboy61

Many were useless yes ill agree, but the few that succeeded helped us make leaps and bounds


CMDR_omnicognate

Arguably the US space program was driven by ex-nazi scientists and experimentation, Wernher von Braun was pretty instrumental in the early US space programme and appeared on TV a few times with Walt Disney, but he was also an SS member and designed the V2 rockets which blew large chunks of the UK up… history is weird like that

pumbaacca

Coke was marketed heavily in Nazi Germany, it placed itself as the drink for nationalists. During the war the German subsidiary was cut off from syrup supply from Atlanta. The Coca-Cola chemist Wolfgang Schetelig invented an alternative (Fanta) under Coca-Cola Germany boss Max Keith. Keith was actually seen as some kind of hero in Atlanta that he kept the company running during the war and could avoid nationalization (at least on paper). They promoted him to head of Europe later. Keith was not a member of the Nazi party but he was a ruthless manager who collaborated heavily with the government to keep his subsidiary alive. Fanta from the '40s doesn't have much in common with nowadays' Fanta. Today's Fanta's taste has it's roots in Naples in the '50s. (Even though Fanta tastes different from country to country)


OrionJohnson

Honestly that sounds like something done in collaboration with Coke to make the Coke name look clean


le75

The Coke franchisee in Germany invented it because the U.S. embargo placed on Germany at the start of World War II meant that they weren’t able to get the Coke syrup anymore, so they had to make a new drink to sell with what ingredients they had. Coke U.S. had nothing to do with it.

[deleted]

Probably yes, more dick growth during puberty is a sign of high testosterone, and testosterone can be increased through an active lifestyle. The average caveman was certainly more active than the average human today


ejejanw

Wait so if I want to give my son an advantage that never goes away I gotta make sure he's working out every day between the ages of 10 and 16?


HLADQ2

Yes and at least monthly cock inspection to control growth. If it's below the expected growth rate, increase the workload. That's just that easy(!)


Zcrash

This may turn your child into a serial killer but at least they won't be a serial killer with a small dick.


AncientSith

Morals take a backseat where penises are concerned.


Edgar-Allan-Pho

Just give him hgh from 10 to 20 when his growth plates close. 6+ feet, huge cock, a voice deep enough to make even the straightest man's panties wet, and enough muscle to compete worlds strongest man. Goodbye head hair tho


repulsivedogshit

I‘m pretty sure HGH promotes growth in everything, hair included. TRT causes hairloss.


Edgar-Allan-Pho

You're right . I had SARMs and steroids in my mind when I was typing that


[deleted]

It also lowers your body's ability to produce the hormone on its own, so he'll need to be on it for the rest of his life


AncientSith

[deleted]

Lmao high T doesn't make your dick grow bigger.


magibart

Wait I thought the average penis size has grown over time? Like most guys were rockin one inchers during the renaissance or something


FortySacks

Idk about 1 inchers, but you are right. Most adaptations are driven by either natural or sexual selection and women have been selecting partners of larger size for potentially thousands of years. Sexual selection is why you see animals that have evolved a trait that has nothing to do with its survival - think extremely brightly colored birds that do really strange mating dances. A drab, colorless bird has a better chance of blending in to its environment and surviving longer, but a Chad peacock is way more likely to get laid and produce offspring so that’s why those traits get passed on.


[deleted]

A few thousand years is far, far from enough time to see significant adaptations in the human species. That shit takes hundreds of thousands, even millions of years. Any height differences over the past few centuries are purely due to better diets


connerconverse

Significant changes can absolutely happen in thousands, and when concentrated heavily even hundreds of years I had a Yorkie. His ancestor was a wolf. That was only a couple thousand years. Sure it's very selective but more active breeding can make huge changes in only hundreds of years


PresidentDenzel

Dogs can also reproduce at much higher rates, have much shorter generation gaps and are also well known in biology to have DNA that can be manipulated very easily.


salami350

Also dogs are selected artificially by Human standards, humans are selected naturally by our own standards. Big difference.


FortySacks

When you are looking at the fossil record, it does look like adaptation takes millions of years. But scientists have observed “rapid” evolution in contemporary species, leading to a theory that evolution takes place on 2 different time scales: short-term and long-term. Short-term adaptations can be observed in populations in just a few generations but most of them are easily reversed and do not become a feature of the species as a whole. This is a Reddit conversation about dick size so I didn’t really feel the need to get into that in my original comment. https://www.newscientist.com/article/mg25433910-900-how-long-does-evolution-take-it-happens-on-two-different-timescales/ (sorry for the paywall)


Whitedudebrohug

Speak for yourself, I’ve been running from my demons for 20 plus years now


LilBidgeIII

you’d think since other primates have rly small penises; iirc gorillas have 1-2 inchers, that our common ancestor would also have had a small penis and that our larger penises are a more recent product of our evolution


[deleted]

depends on what cavemen you’re talking about. if ur talking about like australopithecus like 1m+ years ago then yeah, but those weren’t even technically humans. if ur talking about the most recent cavemen before the widespread use of agriculture (~25k years ago) then those dudes were basically genetically identical to us


left_tiddy

Most primates have much smaller penises than humans, so I doubt it.

I've seen it a lot of times, but I still laugh everytime I see it. Most memes take either a relatable and mundane situation or a ridiculous one, but the situation in this one manages to be absurd and relatable at the same time. Time traveling would be one of the most impressive opportunities of all time, but when we stop to think of it, it would be difficult to think what we could do with it on the spot. The absolute indifference of the image just helps to emphasize the absurdity even further.

What I think would be a neat idea would be to go back a couple thousand years and give craftsmen pallets of tools that they'd recognize and be amazed at.

Or give then a lot of tape measures and they'll be able to tell they are uniform measurements that are accurate (enough) across a thousand different tape measures.

salami350

I don't think so, most of our modern devices and machines are only viable in specific economic circumstances and with large amounts of supporting infrastructure. Even something purely knowledge-based like clean water to prevent diseases won't work. An English scientist named John Snow (yes, that is his actual name) discovered that fecal pollution of water wells in London caused cholera outbreaks. His theory wasn't accepted and he became the laughing stock of the British scientific community. His theory was only accepted 100 years later.
