Sorry, the onus in on the person who makes the claim to prove it. I don't think any of us are saying that you're at all asserting that it's actually real. It's just that I (we?) think the claim itself is bullshit.
Seriously, the site even says the guy who allegedly found the blue Amanita is the only person who's ever seen it. Why didn't he actually pick the specimen and show it to people himself?

Nobody would get this defensive unless they know with 100% certainty that their statement and 'evidence' are pure bullshit.
This reminds me of the thread where a guy posted a Slovenian site selling Latvian forest topsoil that you put in a pot, water it and in a month it grows Boletus edulis! That thread became hilarious (and quickly locked) when we tried to point out all the reasons why that's impossible.
I never said they existed, I merely quoted the internet but since you seem to be the educated one and just like to belittle other members then prove that they don't exist!!

Belittle other members? I never said anything about you, but the people who made that site, you merely posted it. Unless it's your site. How can I prove it doesn't exist? Obviously I can't. That argument is invalid. No one can prove that something doesn't exist. I can't prove that a three headed potato-dog monster doesn't exist neither. Someone with digital photography and editing skills could probably prove the photographs are fake. They very obviously are. I can recognize Amanita muscaria no matter what colour the cap is changed into. Again, no reason to take it personally. I merely ridiculed the fraudsters who made that site, not you in any way.

Sorry, but it sure looked like you singled out me with the above quote, I'm pretty sure you weren't referring to McGinty!! Either way no offence taken.

My comment is obviously below the quote taken directly from that site, I only quoted your post with the link in it and responded with a 'rofl' smiley. I rest my case. I won't argue anymore, and am hiding this thread. Please let's not derail it any further.

Does. Not. Compute.
Can't prove a negative.
Just to beat that dead horse one more time by applying logic.
-------------------- "Shrub, 30-90 cm. Leaves 2.5-) 4-9 cm, sessile or amplexicaul, broadly ovate to ovate-oblong, obtuse or rounded to subapiculate or subacute, when crushed not smelling of goats." "The initial quake was a 6.6 but fairly shallow. I felt it as a prolonged up and down vibration followed by a jolt forward and then to the left, like square dancing."

Liberty King said: Chances are he is simply talking about P.Cubensis.
When i was younger a lot of people called them all kinds of weird shit but the most common name was "Blue Caps" (Usually Called BC Blue Caps, as I am on the East Coast in Canada so it makes them sound more impressive )
Cubes "Bruise" blue very easily, and are the most common "Shrooms" (because they are the most commonly grown)!
I know many people who used the pitch "Look how powerful these are" referring to the bluing, they would say that was the psilocybin in them
Keep in mind this was before the internet was super popular
Chances are your friend did trip balls off some "Cubes" that somebody handled alot and "made blue"
Pretty sure he isn't talking about that but is a good idea bruised mushrooms usllauly means there bad I grow cubes and bruised ones seem to be less potents
And those pictures of blue amanita is how dude described it and like I said it couldn't have been cubes cuase the trip sounded more mental like amanitas I can remember being like

Yeah but was it so cool that it was quoted three times in one response? Was it that cool?
