If you really study the two threads, you may stumble across a common theme. ---

> [@Senegoid](#): > > Huh? 😕 😕 > Are you saying that your remark in that zombie-complaint thread in ATMB (quoted 6 posts above) was referring to a different thread than this one? No, it was definitely this one. Either I misremembered the details or I conflated two different threads (not the one earlier this month). I forgot it was started by a woman complaining about her husband’s habit - and I confused that with someone talking about her husband (or boyfriend) wanting _her_ to scratch him. Regardless, the mushrooms were really the important part. You have no idea the sheer volume of threads I read between stumbling upon this place earlier this year and signing up - things start to run together after awhile.
