During wheat harvest, Reuben went out into the fields and found some mandrake plants, which he brought to his mother Leah. Rachel said to Leah, "Please give me some of your son's mandrakes."
-Gen 30:14

Umm... what the hell do I do? What's a mandrake?!

Random Verse Generator, who's next?

ETA: I googled

The alkaloids make the plant, in particular the root and leaves, poisonous, via anticholinergic, hallucinogenic, and hypnotic effects.

Yeah, I'm goin' to jail.

Sounds like you will have to apologize for problems at work that you cause with livestock.

[–] boeman@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It could mean you need to steal your neighbor's truck.

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Steal the neighbor's truck to apologize for the first thing, then say sorry to the neighbor by giving them livestock.
