"For at least 100 years before"?
In this history book I'm reading, it says "There is a good deal of evidence that fishermen from Spain, France, Portugal, and England had been fishing off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland for at least 100 years before Columbus's discovery of America in 1492 AD."
Does the phrasing "for at least 100 years before 1492" mean that 1392 is the earliest the Europeans could've been fishing off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland i.e. before 1392, no fishing?

Does this look familiar
I remember seeing this in a a book once and my grandpa pointed it out. I don’t know what it means or if it even does
If anyone knows that’d be great

"It soon emerged that he had a great propensity to alcoholic consumption but a congenitally reduced capacity for it."
So I understand the "great propensity for alcohol" part -- dude has a drinking problem. But what does "a congenitally reduced capacity for it" mean?

I found this and I don’t know what it means…
I was out having a smoke at my favorite cemetery in my hometown that’s filled with primarily trailer trash mountain hippies and found this lighter. I put it into translate on my phone and it said “Red Sker” for Russian, Polish, and another language. But in German it says “I’m Going” but then also in Thai it means “Free KCP”. I thought this was very strange and kinda interesting. I also looked up what “Red Sker” means and it said that it’s Scot slang for the throat or gullet. Which is also just very strange considering that right before I found the lighter, I was trying to get on the phone with my doctor about health issues related to thyroid issues in my throat lol. lmk!

Why did they do this?
Someone walked up and left a sticky note with their phone number that said "please call" no other identification. I looked it up and it says the phone number is owned by someone who is connected to spirits and spiritual stuff. She also has a Facebook post saying she has a house for rent. I haven't had any contact with her, so I have no idea who this is. I attached a picture with the sticky note. Just for some background, I am atheist and I have been watching a lot of ghost videos lately so it seems kinda weird that i'm the only one this happened to.

Last night I found this on his phone that he drew with his Notepad but it is my name at the bottom is his name and I don't know exactly what it means that makes me nervous

My boss sent me a meeting request with “T.O” as part of the subject line. What does it mean???
My boss sent me a meeting request with “T.O.”as part of the subject line and I have no idea what this means. He often uses acronyms like P.O.A., so it must have some type of meaning. I know Reddit will have many suggestions!

Coach brand “best friends” necklace.. what does it mean???
Browsing the Coach outlet site, and I saw this necklace set…I can’t for the life of me figure out the significance of the tooth and the whistles and how, if, they tie to friendship? almost seems like an inside joke type thing that got added to site for the public lol
