To think I should not have been served these mushrooms?

Ordered brown toast with grilled tomatoes and mushrooms. These were the mushrooms, obviously I didnt/couldn't eat them....

Perhaps so, Daphne, I see the same old posters wading in to give a pasting to an OP who has done nothing more malevolent that dual-post a thread about funghi. It's really unnecessary and it gets on my nerves.

The number of vapid threads that litter the boards and this one, this little gem of mushroom-ness, so easy to ignore for those who are so much better than all this.

Moragen, did you mean, "Not mush-room for more though"...? Grin

Bluntness there was nothing 'curious' or 'amused' in those posts, they were meant to make the OP feel silly about posting. Replace the word 'bitchy' with 'pathetic' if that suits better. Nothing wrong with calling a spade a spade either.

I'd rather female dogs be re-named actually since the word 'bitches' has been appropriated, as they're in shocking company.

DaphneFanshaw · 29/07/2019 18:24

Oh yes, it's always the same posters. I suppose they name change every now and then and I think the bitchy / pathetic posters outweigh the funny, witty supportive ones now.
There are just so many people who are so eager to stick the boot in.

What?! Why this again. Did you get the free meal op - I guess thats what you were after?

Probably cold now...

I'm on the fence. I like my mushrooms properly cooked through but I know lots of people prefer them to be a bit less done

TSSDNCOP · 29/07/2019 18:32

Report them then Lying that’s what the button is for.

I personally think it’s deeply unpleasant to call even posters you don’t like bitches.

ShinyMe · 29/07/2019 18:37

I really fancy some mushrooms now. YUM.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 29/07/2019 18:40

I think it's better to let the posts stand so that others can read them and avoid if they choose to. The only posts I routinely report are those critiquing somebody's SPaG.

You think it's deeply unpleasant to call posters 'bitches'? I think it's far more unpleasant to behave like one and OP hasn't deserved the patronisingly twattish posts she's had from some.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 29/07/2019 18:41

I do like that gif, Sparklingbrook and I'm pinching it!

Cannyhandleit · 29/07/2019 18:42

Who knew 2 mushrooms deserves 2 separate posts! Stop ordering mushrooms they are disgusting!

TSSDNCOP · 29/07/2019 18:44

Yes I do. If you lie down with dogs you get fleas Lying. Report, you’re not a mod.

LyingWitchInTheWardrobe2726 · 29/07/2019 18:47

You do you and I'll do me. Neither of us being 'mods'. I don't care what you do.

I didn't call anybody a bitch on this thread but I was certainly thinking that they were.

Posting on mumsnet makes me feel really grubby sometimes. Not with honest to goodness fleas either.

From surreal 'shroom-induced scepticism to mind-numbing sanctimoniousness in a few small steps.

Where are all the fun-gis when you need them?

JemSynergy · 29/07/2019 18:56

I love mushrooms but they do look a bit manky.

BinkyBaa · 29/07/2019 18:58

Are cooked mushrooms meant to be jet black? They look incredibly burnt to me.

nocoolnamesleft · 29/07/2019 19:11

They look disgustingly inedible. But then, they are mushrooms.

Do it!!!!!

LadyRannaldini · 29/07/2019 19:39

They're field mushrooms and they look like this when cooked, OH almost lives on them, they're not like the white button mushrooms. They look perfectly OK.

Thump · 29/07/2019 19:51

They are qware looking mushrooms. The white stalk is charred black. Possibly might have tried them or asked the waiter what sort of mushrooms they were.

But is that brown sauce I see the remnants of on the plate?

SkydivingKittyCat · 29/07/2019 21:01

Thanks for the inspiration OP
