What was the thread where the guy did them live, as it were, posting about it? Nothing shows up on a two year search under “mushrooms”. ---

That’s because the thread is more than 10 years old. Another one of **Homer’s** legendary threads: [a monkey that i wish for](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=37864) ---

And this “trip” down memory lane comes just a few days after another ATMB question about closing a thread because it may have implied recent marijuana use. I guess the times change as the lawyers dictate. 😃 ---

I had some mushrooms yesterday. On my cheese bacon burger. They were pretty good, but I don’t know I’d start a thread about them. Maybe about the key lime pie though. ---

Have the rules changed, or is it down to an individual mod’s whim or interpretation of the rules? ---

The reference: [QUOTE=Homer, in the linked thread] Alright alright alright. They told me to only eat 3, but then, they can’t move, so I guess they’re not really good judges. I just ate the rest of the bag, and it had about two joints worth of weed mixed with it. I almost gagged. **Tasted like burned ass.** Now I guess we’ll see. –Tim [/QUOTE] Much hilarity ensued. Or was that penis? ---

Yanno, dry weed doesn’t taste like burned ass. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t anyway. You probably wouldn’t want to eat it by the spoonful, but then you don’t eat oregano by the spoonful either. Cigarette tobacco though, that stuff is truly vomitous. ---

I’m curious too. When did the rules on discussing current drug usage change?
