So RE: the mushroom lady. She's now saying she bought them from an Asian grocer. I don't know if she's lying or not, but that causes a lot of concerns in terms of racism and such.

I don’t think she’s very smart. My guess is she wants to blame something exotic but mushrooms from a Glen Waverley asian grocery store give an impression of the opposite.

[–] landsharkkidd@aussie.zone 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Exactly. I mean maybe she is right, but considering she's been trying to one up the police, I don't think she is smart tbh.

Also, if some mushrooms from a random grocer were dodgy, where are all the other sick people who would have bought them?

[–] landsharkkidd@aussie.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah, why is it that coincidently, SHE has mushrooms that are dodgy.

Honestly, the more she talks the more she sounds guilty.
