A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.

I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!

Only goofs & silliness. (:

What is this supposed to be? Mushrooms? Acorns? Eggcorns?

[–] _lilith@lemmy.world 14 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

horse chestnuts / conkers / buckeyes

so yeah kinda eggcorns

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Fair warning: We gathered up a BUNCH of these, and came out to the kitchen to find the floor covered with disgusting little grubs all over the floor that had hatched out the chestnuts. So, either roast 'em up real quick, or freeze them, or be prepared for a possible event.

Oh god please don't eat horse chestnuts. Eat regular, non-poisonous chestnuts.

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Ah, yes. These were the non-poisonous kind. They were still riddled with grubs.

What is that thing even? I think it's not a part of my local nature

[–] LadyButterfly@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Conkers! They're a British tradition

[–] syklemil@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 3 months ago

Ah, we've got horse chestnuts, but only as street trees. So I usually see them as trampled remains in huge quantities.

[–] Pieisawesome@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 3 months ago

I think they are picking up buckeyes

[–] Kowowow@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 months ago
