About me

Greetings, reader, and welcome to my blog!

If you’re reading this, you’ve probably clicked on the ‘About’ link and are hoping to find out more about this elusive blogger, whose username is, mysteriously, ‘mushroomsup’.

I’d like to begin by saying that my username is meant to be read as ‘Mushroom Sup’, with ‘Sup’ being one of my many nicknames. It is not to be read as ‘Mushrooms up’. And to all the readers who assumed that my username is a reference to the drugs popularly known as ‘magic mushrooms’, don’t worry, I forgive you for thinking that. I know it seems like I write my blog under influence, but I don’t. Honestly.

Other than the fact that I don’t do drugs, there isn’t much I can say about myself.

Maybe I should clarify one more thing – I’m a person. Don’t laugh. With all the blogging dogs and talking cats these days, you never know. After all, they do have more followers than I do.

So, here I am – an ordinary person with an ordinary blog. And I’m going to be writing about my frustrations with the world. Usually, when I tell my family and friends about my frustrations, they laugh. So I’m hoping to find some sympathetic ears – or eyes, rather- here. And if you can’t empathize with me, at least I will have (hopefully) made you laugh.

Yeah, I know what you’re thinking. I’m thinking the same thing –
They’ll let anyone have a blog these days.

Thanks for reading!

  36. Hi…just stumbled upon your blog…you are hilarious 🙂

  37. Sup ryt? I guess I have to call u by that…I’ve had a real laugh reading your ‘About Me’ section. I found you thru the unpunny blogger and I knew instantly I was going to be a follower here 🙂 Looks like a happy place to be in 🙂
    good to be here 🙂

  38. Lol. I look forward to reading your blog. Mushroomsup soarks and interest when you read it, especially with the profile pic if Winnie the Pooh; so, even though, it might be mistaken as a drug reference, it causes one to be curious enough to look. 😉 …it got me here. Haha. Thanks for your forgiveness. 😊 You’ve got me hooked.

  39. iamthegreenestofblues says:

    I thought ‘Mushroomsup’ was in reference to Super Mario Bros, gaining another life. I tend to look at things too metaphorically. I look forward to reading more from you!

    • mushroomsup says:

      That’s an excellent interpretation – I’ll be sure to use it next time I have to explain the name! And thank you so much – the blog’s been dormant for a while now, but I look forward to writing a lot more in the near future 🙂
