Today I got a bag of some "shrooms" and i was sketchy on whether or not they were actually the right kinda. I took some pictures of what I got in hopes someone here can help me out.

those are indeed 'shrooms' ... just most likely not the kind that you wanted. they are not cubes.
i'm sure that you wanted to take some to trip balls.. those aren't going to do it for you. those will go nice on some salad though.

omg are you serious? The hunting forum is pretty slow this time of year, who cares if his post didn't cross every T and dot every I, he gave us enough information for us to easily help him out and let him know that he'd been gipped.
Don't the mushrooms teach love and understanding or am I the only one who gets that?

if you paid top dollar for those to be psychedelic fungi's that's just a shame, I would have sex with his sister. I think that would be fare.

looking at your's more carefully it almost looks like they are polypore's so maybe dried sliced porcini's but its defintely not anything active, and most likely something gourmet. Lesson learned. Best of luck my friend. He'll get his in time.

Id beat the shit out of the guy anyway to teach him a lesson, since its only shrooms. If it had been coke, you would have to kill him. Thus it is spoken. This is man law.
