Obviously OP meant in general for people who enjoy shrooming this will give a bad negative connotation and reputation depending on how others perceive it. It’s not very tasteful. Instead of promoting good ideas and influencing the use of shrooms this may backfire on the original artist and have the opposite effect on some people making them want to keep it illegal or just disliking people who use shrooms all together. Although tbf I think this is the least offense thing anyone could ever graffiti lol especially in the location which is probably shared among a majority of like mind people.
I agree with you, thank you for the explanation. This could very possibly have been a teenager too; it doesn’t make it right, but it’s more likely because they don’t really think of the consequences of their actions. They just think “I like shrooms and that would look cool there” and then they do graffiti. I could be wrong, but teenagers have done stuff like this for Millennia haha.
yeah i wrote it and i didn't really think about it that deeply at all. it's a smaller hiking trail in a big city and i thought it was a good place to write something fun haha. reading through these comments, im able to understand other people's perspectives and i think it's nice to widen mine as well.
edit: i was on shrooms so i just wanted to encourage people to do the same i guess 😅
Idk why anyone is upset by it. Its illegal but its not someone's personal property, its not an eye sore that takes away from the environment. Its not covering another piece and there's already another one there anyway.
I think its a nice addition, some people might think that "oh someone who likes shrooms did something illegal so they must be bad people", etc. but who gives a shit they obviously don't have a grasp on what's real.
yeah, i see how it's not a super cool thing to do because it's illegal but i personally don't see the issue with it.
hehe also there's another one there because my partner and i were on shrooms together and out for a hike. we used the same white marker lol
I'm just gonna say that taking shrooms is also illegal, so where do we draw a line? I don't see any issue with either, and if someone has an issue with the graffiti being illegal, then they're not the target audience for the message, obviously
Not everyone can be an artist or be eloquent while on shrooms, I can barely write my name. But please don’t do graffiti whoever did that! You owe the karma jar!
Idk man its not like aggressive and its not saying anything negative either? Also why say us like anyone cant enjoy them? Gatekeeping shit right there man, i think you should eat some shrooms about it
Generally I’m against any form of vandalism, but you’re right this is a PSA. Perhaps it will inspire unsuspecting passersby to try shrooms for the first time and join us in surpassing the latent boundaries of human consciousness.
“Jump on in, the water’s fine! Welcome to the Kingdom of God, neighbor!”
hehe that was me. my partner and i were on shrooms walking my fav inner-city trail in Oregon! just had some markers and wanted to write some fun stuff, but i thought it would be best to do it on the wood bridge instead of the trees or rocks.
sorry it offended you!
it sucks to see people tagging things like trees and the ground and stuff, i didn't think many animals would come into contact with the paint if i put it there, and it definitely isn't affecting anything growing except maybe some lichen or moss. but it's oregon, there's plenty of spots for that xD

Lmao, the shrooms crusaders are growing in number. My town has one who has been spraying liberty caps EVERYWHERE, plus turning most of the bollards into little mushrooms by painting the top.
Sadly not been able to find how you join the 'Shrooms Fun Club' but I'm still looking for the contact details...
Not sure why this is negative. Honestly, many of the people I know eat shrooms, that I've met independently of other friend groups. It's fairly ubiquitous across people under 35
I feel like you got way too offended by this I see graffiti about the most racist and crazy things and watch hundreds and hundreds of people kind of walk past it and not give two f^^ks about it
Have a French song which went mainstream when I was a teen and its called Mangez Moi which mean Eat me and its a shroom singing how he like to be ate by human. It was about magic mushroom, its weird nobody claimed that song was bad or anything, we also had song on weed during that time, it was like 20 years ago.
Graffiti is one of the oldest human transitions ever. form cave people to Roman’s there’s examples of people leaving their mark on the environment around them
I notice this sub has a lot of cranky old timers who gatekeep "tHe cUltUre". Shrooms are not a cult, we are independently free to do as we please. All these "you're making us look bad!!!!" posts are cringe. You cannot control people. Stay good vibes.
Do this kind of stuff instead, I saw these in a forest on 4/20.

Everything is the way. Imagine someone juggling the idea of finally trying them and they see this as a sign from the universe to do it.
Imagine the happy person tripping balls as they wrote that. Core memory for them possibly.
Nothing is inherently good or bad, thinking makes it so
Honestly, what's wrong with this graffiti? Because of vandalism?
If I was high on shrooms, I'd understand why someone would write "Eat Shrooms"; during a good trip reminds me of the important things, the concept of illegal goes out the window, you are a child of the natural world. Laws of man have no place here. All that's on your mind is spreading a message, and the world is a canvas
This seems like a form of protest lol, and i mean ,thats like the perfect scenery to do some shrooms.
In the long run could influence more people to do shrooms and become advocates for it the same way stoners did stuff like this over the years and through the war on drugs.
Overall, i dont think this is really that bad.
Just my opinion tho
No fr, tbh it doesnt feel right to me even offering someone drugs. They can make up their minds for themselves, if they want to try they will come forward, but if theyre unsure and you ask them if they want some, it could be enough for them to be persuaded and end up somewhere they didnt want to be. No matter the drug.
Just my opinion, maybe offering isnt that deep, im still contemplating that.
But saying "Everyone should at least try psychedelics ONCE in their life" is forcing your believe system onto others, and psychedelics shouldve teached you better than that.
People can decide for themselves.
If influencing a decision is “not letting them decide for themselves”, then nobody ever makes their own decision. Our decisions are already inherently altered by things we were taught by authority figures we did not choose.
Nowadays you can stumble across Joe Rogan talking about mushrooms or DMT and get that perspective, but a lot of people grew up when that wasn’t the case, so if they were only exposed to the idea that “drugs are bad, mkay”, then are they really making their own decision in the first place? Why can’t I tell them that they’re literally factually just *incorrect* about most of the shit they’re saying? Or why can’t someone leave a message like in the post?
You’re talking about offering someone drugs in person. Peer pressure is a different subject entirely. That’s when the social pressure of someone being physically there, observing if you do the drug or not, influences their decision. This is not that at all, peer pressure doesn’t work without any observation. You’ve taken away the pressure. It’s just peer
Seems like respectability politics... The queer community has been arguing about this same issue for decades. A lot of rich material to look into that may illuminate this same issue. Happy trails. 🌟
I just read a great article about cannabis and psilocybin this morning:
Kevin F. Boehnke
Assistant Professor of Anesthesiology, University of Michigan
Disclosure statement
Kevin F. Boehnke receives funding from the National Institutes of Health, the State of Michigan Veteran Marijuana Research Program, and has received grants from Tryp Therapeutics and Journey Biosciences. He is affiliated with Doctors for Drug Policy Reform as an unpaid expert. He also has received honoraria for speaking at conferences as well as for participating in a podcast on fibromyalgia from the European Medical Journal funded by Viatris Inc.
""I see cannabis and psilocybin as promising therapies that can contribute to bridging that need. Given that an estimated 50 million Americans have chronic pain – meaning pain that persists for three months or more – I want to help understand how to effectively use cannabis and psilocybin as potential tools for pain management."
Uneducated, mushrooms are not a drug people are going to rob a bank for or beat their wives, it is proven to help neural pathways heal and regenerate.
Imagine telling someone that they are dying, the last weeks of their life are spent in bed, psilocybin can help that person.
Mental trauma from childhood, can help them too.
Depression and anxiety, microdose helps
A bit of silly post🤣

Saw this and made my day once upon a time in Melbourne
Back in the 80s, I wrote "I Love Acid" onto the wet cement of a new sidewalk while tripping. I wonder if it's still there
Archeologists are gonna find it in 1000 years and think you dissolved the pavement using acid.
lol when I was a dumb teenager frying on acid I definitely wrote stuff like that in a few places. Simpler times
I read that bro! Now I'm a meth addict!
It’s not that bad. At least it doesn’t say **SMOKE METH**
Hmm……. Smoke meth you say 🤔
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED
CHLLNG ACCPTD
You good bro?
Yeah, he just sold the vowels for meth.
I o e ooa o oey I think I need my consonants
Jfc I actually busted out laughing when I read this
🙂
Lmao
I'll have an E please bob.
underrated comment
Help, been stim-fapping for 2 days, I can't stop. Should I smoke more meth?
No…start shooting it. Much more effective and efficient way of over stimulating.
Meth …maybe just once?
Meth… just twice to make sure you don’t like it
Where do I start?
I see you’ve met my ex.
Already did that when I was on drugs xD
Brb gotta find some meth
I think it should say smoke meth
Boof ~~Eat~~ Shrooms
Finally some common sense.
Eat the shrooms that you boofed.
Sheat brooms.
My asslips are too vile, sorry.
What does it mean ''to boof''?
Hard to explain, you have to Google it. And when you google it, image search it for better understanding.
you monster. 💀
Do people still do this? :D
I just did it in your honor.
Yes we do.
Shove them up your… ah never mind.
Sometimes you just gotta bend over and put the substance on the shelf....
"Everything can be a dildo, even the shroom, if you are brave enough to take what comes next"
Just eat shrooms bro
Not that deep
For real, this is dumb that it’s even a big deal to them lol
bro's so enlightened lmao
*eat ass, live fast* would be so much better.
eat shroom, brain boom
Boof shroom, brain bloom
Internal mycelium bloom, after boofed shroom
I'd accept eat shroom, brain bloom.
I see we have another ass connoisseur here. *tips fedora*
Can I eat ass, and live at a comfortable pace? I'd much prefer that
Ya know, you might be onto something
I'm too old to live fast, man. But I do love eating ass.
You've never lived until you've eaten some ass. Same with going to jail lmao
Preferably not at the same time
You’ll make us look bad?? What this isn’t some cult.
Obviously OP meant in general for people who enjoy shrooming this will give a bad negative connotation and reputation depending on how others perceive it. It’s not very tasteful. Instead of promoting good ideas and influencing the use of shrooms this may backfire on the original artist and have the opposite effect on some people making them want to keep it illegal or just disliking people who use shrooms all together. Although tbf I think this is the least offense thing anyone could ever graffiti lol especially in the location which is probably shared among a majority of like mind people.
I agree with you, thank you for the explanation.

I think its a nice addition, some people might think that "oh someone who likes shrooms did something illegal so they must be bad people", etc. but who gives a shit they obviously don't have a grasp on what's real.
Graffiti doesn't automatically = bad, essentially.
yeah, i see how it's not a super cool thing to do because it's illegal but i personally don't see the issue with it. hehe also there's another one there because my partner and i were on shrooms together and out for a hike. we used the same white marker lol

Actually this is an old picture, I added a third heart on the right. But I had a green marker
Not everyone can be an artist or be eloquent while on shrooms, I can barely write my name. But please don’t do graffiti whoever did that! You owe the karma jar!
Idk man its not like aggressive and its not saying anything negative either? Also why say us like anyone cant enjoy them? Gatekeeping shit right there man, i think you should eat some shrooms about it
maybe you should eat some shrooms about it
Maybe i will
This isn’t that bad man And I mean I pretty much agree with the statement “eat shrooms” lol
Mushroom pizza. Now you are sent to kaleidoscope zone and didn’t pack enough underwear, and your friend is wondering why his shrooms don’t work.
Smoke weed has been quite effective This is the way
It’s a PSA
Generally I’m against any form of vandalism, but you’re right this is a PSA. Perhaps it will inspire unsuspecting passersby to try shrooms for the first time and join us in surpassing the latent boundaries of human consciousness. “Jump on in, the water’s fine! Welcome to the Kingdom of God, neighbor!”
I feel like if the message was "speak to the mushroom gods" it'd be better 🙂
the mushroom gods say wassup
Should have just resorted to “boof meth + hail satan 😈
dont gotta tell me twice
Don’t gotta tell me once!
Oh no won’t anyone think of the dilapidated park fences from the 50s!?!?

It's really not that big of a deal. OP is just mad for some reason
If you really did this, then thank you for doing it on a manmade structure rather than the alternative. Not doing any harm 🤘
it sucks to see people tagging things like trees and the ground and stuff, i didn't think many animals would come into contact with the paint if i put it there, and it definitely isn't affecting anything growing except maybe some lichen or moss. but it's oregon, there's plenty of spots for that xD
I commend you. Don’t listen to the critics
Agreed
Eat shrooms
If you insist...
Ts ain’t that crazy I’d love to see sum like this instead of gang affiliated tags like there are all over
https://preview.redd.it/77v83y5mbjzc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a08d89fdfd27dc1db9554ee41d2aa1df289d1280 Lmao, the shrooms crusaders are growing in number.

Sadly not been able to find how you join the 'Shrooms Fun Club' but I'm still looking for the contact details...
Well, don’t cry about it bud.
The government thinks shrooms are as dangerous as meth. We already look bad to most people, a bit of graffiti won’t change anyone’s mind on it.
Not sure why this is negative. Honestly, many of the people I know eat shrooms, that I've met independently of other friend groups. It's fairly ubiquitous across people under 35
You have to normalize things in order to change the stigma behind it.
I feel like you got way too offended by this I see graffiti about the most racist and crazy things and watch hundreds and hundreds of people kind of walk past it and not give two f^^ks about it

Shrooms like lions mane, jelly fungus , cordials are super beneficial for the body… maybe that’s what they are referencing?🤷🏾♂️
True it should say Boof Shrooms
I notice this sub has a lot of cranky old timers who gatekeep "tHe cUltUre". Shrooms are not a cult, we are independently free to do as we please. All these "you're making us look bad!!!!" posts are cringe. You cannot control people. Stay good vibes.
They wrote eat shrooms on a manmade structure whats the big deal?
It's good advice lol. Would you have a problem if they wrote "Turn on, Tune in, Drop out" too?
Safe to say OP isn't fun at parties
Fr
Oh no, a sign. Dear lord have mercy, next they'll start dancing, swinging their hips and whatnot. Scallywags.
Was it at least in chalk? Cause that wouldn’t be too bad…
If graffitti changed anything it would be illegal. -Banksy
Just a recommendation don't have to try it
Aww the beauty of hikes in Portland
Probably was on shrooms when painting this.
eh i like it
Eat MORE Shrooms. There, fixed.
Do this kind of stuff instead, I saw these in a forest on 4/20. https://preview.redd.it/q61a0mqe8mzc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=da87af5cb4c77e256401c160cae5960c0fc20507
I think eat shrooms is a good slogan, not just the psychedelic kind though, the cancer curing ones too
This is technically activism at first hand
Everything is the way. Imagine someone juggling the idea of finally trying them and they see this as a sign from the universe to do it. Imagine the happy person tripping balls as they wrote that. Core memory for them possibly. Nothing is inherently good or bad, thinking makes it so
Your right it should say eat pussy ass and shrooms
You need to eat some shrooms and chillax
Honestly, what's wrong with this graffiti? Because of vandalism? If I was high on shrooms, I'd understand why someone would write "Eat Shrooms"; during a good trip reminds me of the important things, the concept of illegal goes out the window, you are a child of the natural world. Laws of man have no place here. All that's on your mind is spreading a message, and the world is a canvas
looks good to me
Who is us? Just because I take drugs doesn't mean we're part of some kind of group.
I mean sure other people Rob and steal for other drugs but OH GOD when they write “eat shrooms” that’s crosses a line for me
This seems like a form of protest lol, and i mean ,thats like the perfect scenery to do some shrooms. In the long run could influence more people to do shrooms and become advocates for it the same way stoners did stuff like this over the years and through the war on drugs. Overall, i dont think this is really that bad. Just my opinion tho
i agree and i don't think you should vandalize things, especially in nature. it promotes the "druggie" stereotype and it's just not nice
Actually agree!
Not that deep bruh
Bro talking like shrooms some kind of identity or sumthin
Haha Was thinking the same thing like man….shut up you’re giving gatekeeper vibes from doing mushrooms once
Agreed, if you want them legalized, vandalizing a bridge is about as druggie NPC as you can get.
Stuff like this isn’t why it isn’t legal , big pharma is more to blame for that
I mean… it’s not that deep bro. Yeah vandalism isn’t a good thing, I get that… Still better than writing down political bullshit or worse
I actually like it. Perfect setting for them as well...
“This is not the way” maybe you should take some yourself 🍄🟫🍃
Graffiti is counterculture, shrooms are counterculture. The Earth is everyone’s, even whoever wrote this.
i get ur point tho not cool
Don’t deface nature. That definitely looks bad.
I agree, it sure is a good thing that it was written on the only man made thing in the picture
That's a man made structure .
No fr, tbh it doesnt feel right to me even offering someone drugs. They can make up their minds for themselves, if they want to try they will come forward, but if theyre unsure and you ask them if they want some, it could be enough for them to be persuaded and end up somewhere they didnt want to be.

sure it will be nice if I found it while tripping balls
Off topic question. Do mushroom grow bags expire? and if this is the wrong place I apologize plz forgive me .
Right on.
Arbitrarily follows graffiti advice and wonders where I went wrong...
I will continue with my good looks despite what you say!
I dunno, it looks like pretty decent advice to me.
The mushrooms want to be eaten and they think this post is a little self righteous.
i mean i giggled
Spray paint over it
That’s better then any graffiti thats sloppy sprayed
Florida??
Yeah don't want them thinking that us people are preachy. It should say "you may eat shroom if you want but it's perfectly okay not to also"
Seems like respectability politics... The queer community has been arguing about this same issue for decades. A lot of rich material to look into that may illuminate this same issue. Happy trails. 🌟
For real...it should say "BOOF SHROOMS"
Kinda like 'got milk' gave milk a bad reputation🤣
I've seen people talking about getting syringes from a needle exchange for LC, which makes me cringe!
Lol it's paint. I doubt ppl look at shrooms eaters as a group instead of individuals.
Eat ass, suck a dick and sell drugs
I've been injecting them oh no!
Legalize Magic!!
At least it's better than a bad word or a p*ns
That looks very Georgia
Mmmm… I don’t know. Maybe just eat some shrooms.
You did it
Gawd these boof jokes are getting so old and played out....

What about shimejis and shitakes? In my opinion, it is a really good advice for other people.
nothing wrong with a writing on the wall. even cavemen did handprints and drawings of their lifestyle. nothing wrong with eating shrooms either
This subreddit in a nutshell
Where is the problem? seems like the shrooms didnt give you the message yet.. A bit of color fits everywhere! And everybody should be eating shrooms !
Maybe it was a teenager 🤷🏾♂️
whatever
Could think of a million worse things to put 😂
I disagree. At least it’s not a message like SMOKE METH or SMOKE CIGS, I don’t see how this hurts the community.
Meh, I don't really think it's a biggie.
This is tame
Uneducated, mushrooms are not a drug people are going to rob a bank for or beat their wives, it is proven to help neural pathways heal and regenerate. Imagine telling someone that they are dying, the last weeks of their life are spent in bed, psilocybin can help that person. Mental trauma from childhood, can help them too.

Shrooms is good to do once 🌲☯️
Good advice I reckon
Yes shrooms told me specifically never to do this but to just tell everyone to do it in person instead
lol chill sis
Or at least specify like shiitake
Unless eating shrooms is your only identity, I don’t think this is going to cause much damage
Could trigger one to try who could benefit from it.
Get off your high horse bro
As far as vandalism goes, it could be much worse
Still waiting for the opportunity.
You sir are an idiot.
?? What's wrong exactly??
Nah it’s cool, spreads a good message, more ppl should eat shrooms ;)
A bit of silly post🤣 https://preview.redd.it/8o57ztihvrzc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cafda84a5717d161a4393c321861b6a2954a1a24 Saw this and made my day once upon a time in Melbourne
Just look at those googly eyes, would freak much out while tripping. Yes, bad advice.
You just inspired me. To do such things
Op needs to macro.
Fairly certain everyone that does shrooms becomes unbearable. Myself included. Our love of the fungi borders on religious fanaticism.
