I don't like mushroom soup. I like mushrooms. I don't like...autosaved draft at 11:21:51 PM? What does this mean?

I don't like mushroom soup. I keep buying mushroom soup because I think I'm bound to like it, and then I find I don't and I have to fill it with salt before...11:22.41 PM? Why?

I think it's because I used to quite like chicken soup in the days when I ate chicken and I forget that mushrooms aren't entirely like chickens. They're a similar colour and they absorb flavours in the same sort of way and texturally they're not entirely...WHAT is this Autosaved draft at 11:24:01 PM thing all about? Where did it come from? Why is it taking snapshots of my posts in progress? To where is it sending them?

If I go quiet it stops looking. If I type it says Autosaved draft at 11:25:11 PM.

See? Quiet. Nothing. Typing. 11:25:31 PM.

I've forgotten what I was saying about the mushrooms. The mushroom soup I had today was an unnecessarily dark shade of brown. I found it slightly disturbing. I...excuse me one moment. I have to go and put the screens up.

I might just come back when it's quieter.

The drafts are SCARY because I don't know where they save them and then I come back ages and ages later and it is babble about stuff and confuses me like my PAST SELF IS TALKING TO ME. Dude.

Mushroom soup is not always nice. Chicken soup is more good.

I do not know either. But they save them quite correctly and serve them up to you in a window and it's actually very useful because sometimes things do crash before I've saved them but I do hope they're keeping them under lock and key.

I miss chicken soup, though not as much as I miss lemon chicken. I probably eat more chocolate to make up for it.

I dislike mushrooms intensely, so I'm afraid I cannot fully sympathise. I don't like mushroom soup, but I don't have the expectation that I would, since I only truly like Heinz tomato soup. I amfrequently described as a gourmand in my own head.

The autosaved draft is strange. If you write an entry and then it crashed or you close the screen, then the next time it asks you if you want to revert to your saved draft. I don't know what happens if you were composing two entries at a time. Perhaps someone should experiment.

I like Heinz tomato soup too. It is a very legitimate thing to like. I used to put sausages in it in my youth. These days I use lime juice.

The second of the two. I experimented.

I quite like the autosaved drafts actually.

I have a tin of condensed mushroom soup always in the storecupboard for making a baked dish of sliced potatoes layered with sliced mushrooms and splodges of condensed mushroom soup. And cheese. And white wine sometimes. Mmmm.

I like them really. They just surprised me. But I have lost drafts lots of time because the window decided it'd be jolly good fun to close before I pressed save.

Perhaps mushroom soup with cheese and things would be more acceptable. I'll try and remember it next time I forget I don't like mushroom soup and buy a can.

I have no idea who you are (am here via tiniago (http://tiniago.livejournal.com)), but I love this post. It brightened my night more than the failing streetlights outside my window.

*post love*

Well, hurrah! Thank you for dropping by anyway. There might be further mushroom based rants, but I think I've come around to the idea of autosaved drafts now.
