A mushroom walks into a bar and orders a drink.
The bartender says "get outta here, we don't serve your kind"
"why not?" says the mushroom, "I'm a fungi"
We now return to their usualy drab and useless programming.

Sandra Lee walks into a bar.
A mushroom approaches and offers to buy her a drink.
She took one look at his woodear and said, "I don't usually accept
drinks from your kind!"."Why not?" says the mushroom, "I'm a fungi."
The morel of the story is, the world may be your oyster, but life is
too short to stuff a mushroom. -

That would be funny if the grammar were correct.
The singular is fungus, not fungi. And fungi is
pronounced "fun-jee" (alternate pronunciation
"fung-ee"😉 not "fun-guy". Well, actually, I guess
it wouldn't be funny even if the grammar were
correct as then it would not make any sense. Oh,
well. Life's a [censored] when you're a strict grammarian.

Thanks Kate, I was wondering why this was supposed to be funny or even
make sense. It hadn't occurred to me to mispronounce fungi although I'd
realised the grammar was wrong.Doug
