Oh man, that Bigfoot dude is struggling in that thread.

Coffee Warlord · 08-25-2011, 03:31 PM

...Wow.

How on earth have I missed this gem? It's like the zoological version of the blackjack thread.

JediKooter · 08-25-2011, 04:25 PM

I love how the Bigfoot dude is estimating the Bigfoot population based on anecdotal eyewitness accounts.

For starters, Bigfeet are nocturnal. Secondly, Bigfeet have extraordinary senses of smell, hearing, and sight. They're essentially higher-level primates (like a gorilla on long legs) so they're also very intelligent. Thirdly, Bigfeet are also very shy animals. For example, wild squirrels and birds aren't that shy, but wild deer are VERY skittish.

I enjoy how all of these facts that he lays out about Bigfoot help explain why we can't ever seem to find any evidence of them. First of all, they'll see, hear, and smell you coming from 472 miles away. Secondly, they'd like to meet you, because they're super smart, but they are very shy - so you know, you have to get to know them first.

And honestly I kind of hope Bigfoot does exist. I think that would make the world I live in a bit more interesting, but ... yeah, this guy isn't really helping much I don't think.

Siberian region 'confirms Yeti exists' - Yahoo! News

JediKooter · 10-11-2011, 10:45 AM

This: "They found his footprints, his supposed bed, and various markers with which the yeti marks his territory," the statement said. The collected "artifacts" will be analysed in a special laboratory, it said.

Does not equal this:

A Russian region in Siberia on Monday confidently proclaimed that its mountains are home to yetis after finding "indisputable proof" of the existence of the hairy beasts in an expedition.

All it does is result in this:

Man, I love how they say they have irrefutable evidence and then say they are 95% certain of its existence and then they say they "think" they have hair samples.

That's quite the spectrum of certainty. Still not holding my breath...

RomaGoth · 06-19-2012, 03:58 PM

Hmm. Never knew this thread existed and it is 7 years old. Well, my son's friend wants to hunt down Bigfoot in in the Pacific Northwest; however, I advised him that completing middle school first is probably a good idea.

They have bigfoot wilderness expeditions, and they actually claim they get more sightings when there are women and children in the group because the bigfoots (bigfeets?) find them less threatening. They let you play with all their high-tech night-vision/audio stuff. I think it'd be a fun trip.

Yeah, well. You say that now but how will you feel when some giant hairy man-beast is carrying you away like a sack of potatoes over his shoulder.

Or just tell him to pack light. He won't have to worry about hauling around traps and nets and stuff.

Honestly, it would depend on what he planned to do with me. Eat me alive? Not ideal. Kidnap me for the purposes of training me to become a bigfoot butler in some mysterious and fantastic underground ape-lair? Eh, maybe that wouldn't be too bad. I'd go in with an open mind at least.

He might want you as a personal sex slave/butler. Now what.

I assume I'd be a sex slave for the bigfoot women though. And I like Italian human women, so how much different could it be?

I wasn't aware Bigfoots were up on modern technology. I always assumed they adapted their natural senses.

I think we call this a glitch in the matrix. Someone bumps this thread. Quik posts in it. Quik never channel surfs, but does tonight, and sees a bigfoot hunter show. More than a coincidence, but not quite a supernatural event.

Sort of like bigfoot him/herself.

Haha! What the article fails to mention is that her 'scientific' paper was turned down for peer review over and over again. So what did she do? She bought a science journal and renamed it to De Novo, came out with a special edition that only has the paper in it. Boom! Now she's published.

I don't know man, if you go to their website, there's a photo of a scientist lady filling beakers with an aqua-colored liquid. That seems pretty legit sciencey to me.
