i've read the rules but i don't know much about how to describe the mushroom, i think the picture is enough.. anyway maybe the only thing that not so clear in the pic is that the mushroom is very short..
thanks!

Probably an Agaricus. Impossible to confirm or be more detailed without more info. In addition to the rules, check out the sticky post that tells you how to describe a mushroom, you'll find some useful info there. Also at mushroomexpert.com

spore print? That's one thing you could have done. Maybe explain what it's growing out of. I can tell you it's not active. Won't make you trip sack. Could be lots of things.

does it bruise? and its most defintely not active. it would help if you would describe where you are and where you found it, like in a shit field or ten steps from your back door or in your friends dirty crevices in his bathroom etc etc etc etc etc

Please explain what makes you so sure those are "meadow mushrooms."

Evets,
You are not on the trusted identifiers list for this forum. And your screen name is not recognized by any of us either.
Your "Meadow Mushroom" (Agaricus campestris) ID is possibly wrong. Which is understandable, yet you hinted that they were OK to consume..twice
There are easily over 300 species of Agaricus that grow wild on this planet, a good number of them are poisonous, and most of them are difficult to identify (especially from just a few photographs).
This is a verbal warning not to provide people with potentially harmful information at this forum. If you do it again you will be banned from the hunting forum, for a year maybe.

however, that would make a damn good burger. :P personally I have a hard time distinguising the subtle differences in big agarics like that.

ggreatone ive been reading this forum for some time now. I can honestly say that all the people who post regularly.. your posts are are easily the least informative. It's as if you feel it's your right to post. In your posts I see someone trying so hard to sound intelligent and educated. I see right through it. You don't touch the other frequent posters on here. Maybe this opinion will get me banned. Truth hurts though. And yes that is a meadow mushroom.

and Evets, i have never claimed to be a know-it-all like others. in fact, i have stated before that i am relatively stupid. and I (unlike many other people) think that humans are stupid (your obnoxious replies just reinstates that theory of mine)
but, plop the two of us down somewhere in the world and see which one of us can find a psychoactive mushroom first. if it ws in florida, i would probably find one before anyone else i have ever met.
now you go and enlighten the forum with your rudeness, and tell us how you know for positive that those blurry pictures with zero description are Agaricus campestris.

oh, and let us leave it up to the genius' like curecat and alan and toxic man to validate your description. so it should be a good challenge for you i think (it would probably be a good challenge for david aurora too considering no description), and i am personal messaging the original poster requesting that no extra information be given to you for this
just by strange chance, you are not that guy over at shroomtalk who eats those unidentified Agaricus mushrooms all the time are you? if so, use your stomach medicine again before you reply back to me

this is any easy ID even with lack of info, maybe next time when it's a little harder it will be a challenge.

a picture is never enouf , read the forun rules carefully, we need more information for a reason, the spore print is esencial . the habitad, the color changes of the stem basically some agaricus bruise yellow on stems . the smell , a foul chemical smell, like bleach is no good, other then that many agaricus are edible, but as many point out is wise to be sure specially when you are not familiar with the ones in your area, if is an agaricua, the spore print should be brown ,if is a pluteus i doub it shoul be pink of if is a volvariella which i doub more, my money is on agaricus , close to a campestris group where many more exist, but this is a wild guess to do a spore print place the cap i a white paper and cover with a glass and in 4 hours or maybe 8 you will have a print of the spores in the paper, very easy and esencial to id mushrooms.. all my best vibrations

hm, well, that is not good enough of a reason for me really.
maybe it is good enough for the others when they see the photos and read the info about the mushrooms provided.
maybe something like a full description of the habitat other then just grass and soil, location, more then one specimen to observe gill color as the mushroom matures, more then one specimen to see if any have a annulus, spore print, smell, dig the mushroom up to see it by chance has a volva, a note to know if any of the mushroom cap or stipe bruises yellow, a cross section on the stem to see if it is hollow, a microscope to compare the spores with A. solidipes, possibly see if the cap surface stains yellow with potassium hydroxide, and i would also do a radial section to get a better idea what the gill attachment is like on more then one specimen.
and i asked you once, are you that guy from the shroomtalk hunting forum who eats "any fuckin mushroom i think looks good"?
