infected shroom or nah? *pics*

hey guys. still on my first harvest ever, and I'm a little concerned about on of my little dudes.
there is a spot on one side of the cap that was wet when I picked it, and the wet spot felt a little slimy, I'm hoping that this is due to me misting and getting wet spots on the shrooms.
my question is, how do I know if I'm dealing with contam/infection or just a wet shroom? does anything in the pictures look off or of concern?
thanks in advance

Looks healthy to me, probably just a bit of moisture laying on the cap for too long

I see people worrying about infection with mushrooms that look just fine, and then a thread or two over, you see someone who doesn't give a fuck about eating a black pile of goop. Such contrast.

the idea of having eaten an infected mushroom, in my experience, can make a trip go bad real quick

Then don't think about it. You can eat some pretty nasty mushrooms without feeling sick. Or you can feel sick from mushrooms that are perfectly fine. 
You would have to be willfully ignorant to eat anything that could harm you though. Make tea if you're concerned.
Just remember, plenty of people here will eat verticillium infected fruits and be fine, same with bacterial ones. I wouldn't eat anything moldy but mold doesn't really like to form on the mushrooms.

lmao, I am one of those people. I have eaten splotched mushies raw and still had an amazing time. It might be why my immune system is so good

Hell yeah I haven't been sick in years. The first step is not caring about that shit. Could I still reasonably mistake this for being fresh? Yes? Good to go.

I'm not sure if I would ask someone to leave immediately or let them go ahead and do it, then ask them to leave, if they demanded to do a line of it. Like, do you really wanted shredded mycelium stuck to the inside of your nasal passage?
You have a friend like that?

He's fine, eat that little fucker.
-------------------- Considering spores can survive the vacuum of space, I would assume it's safe to say that mushrooms are on every planet waiting for the right conditions to present themselves. What it all boils down to, is aliens are on shrooms.

Extracting crystals and snorting them? Everytime I extracted it ended up being a goo. Which is great because it doesn't oxidise in like 30 seconds, like crystals would. I also add some vitamin c to help preserve it. Basically 1 pill of vitamin c per ounce
