Bigfoot - serious, not follies

[Mr. Skinny]

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Reply to absurd post

1) so you believe any statement as long it implies a hoax.
I asked a question. I didn't say I believed any statement whatsoever. What are you talking about?

2) you believe anything you read in the papers?
Believe what? What papers?

3) bonk!
If you say so.

4) I am here to fish for the 2% intelligent ones to bring to our side. MOST OF YOU DO NOT QUALIFY

BUT it is worth it.

Already have 6 favorable PMs --- complimenting me for having the guts to post here. The lions den, the BELLY OF THE BEAST.

You haven't been able to engage anyone here without coming across as a raving nutter so far.

If you want intelligent discussion, you have to start by offering topics to discuss in an intelligent way.

Would you like to start over and try again?

 

[Jeff Corey]

The raving nutters are getting even more insulting than Ineffectual Ian.
Dr. Mas calls us children, as does this nutter.
What's next? My breath is bated.

 

[Hitch]

Hey Erik, Bigfoot adbucted your links.

 

[erikbeckjord]

My apologies, then... So, what are you doing here?

I am here to search for the very few, not you, intelligent
people.

Also to deflate this pompous LAL person, who really thinks she is

somebody

Also to inform you misguided skeptix.

And why are YOU here? For laffs....? So it seems....

Then hold that breath for 15 min.

HUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM

I JUST FIGURED IT OUT...you people know nothing about this topic.

Uh-oh.........

 

[The Odd Emperor]

I am here to save you from the error(s) of your ways.

...and how is this working out?

 

[RayG]

Well bless my hole Erik, or should I say Cedrip, when did they let you out?

You wouldn't be pestering the folks here at the JREF Forum with your wild stories of riding in UFOs, seeing bigfoot in a bag of chips, taking ghost photos, or other such nonsense would you?

Re: HUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM

I am teaching basically Bigfoot 601...

Ok Teach, explain to us in full detail:

1. The process of shapeshifting.

2. What do you really think bigfoot is?

Feel free to call upon science to fill in the details.

ps. Who's Huston?

How can you tell the difference, especially considering you've already admitted you don't have proof? I think you're just looking for closed minds who share your unfounded beliefs.

Also to deflate this pompous LAL person, who really thinks she is somebody

A rivalry between two people without evidence. Aside from the possibility of a few funny ad hominems, this should be quite boring.

Also to inform you misguided skeptix.

Then please do so. With evidence.

And why are YOU here? For laffs....? So it seems....

I'm on this forum for multiple reasons: To try and save people from their delusions by pointing out other possible explanations or the absence of good evidence. To learn about some scientific matters. The only place here I specifically go to for laughs is the humor forum. Laughs from the other portions of the forum are just a common side bonus.

Oh, and a friend wanted me to ask you: Why would bigfeet shapeshift so much? Seems like a big waste of energy.

Personally, I think that question is pointless because you haven't proven they exist.

I JUST FIGURED IT OUT...you people know nothing about this topic.

Of course not: We have yet to see evidence that bigfoot exists. Without that, there's no point in speculating.

Uh-oh.........

You seem a bit upset. Let's back up and review why many posters here consider you to be a troll, a joke, or someone with an untreated illness.

Exhibit A) You title your thread "serious bigfoot" and then pepper your posts with deliberate spelling errors for humorous effect. Yet you get upset when other people make jokes. If you want a serious discussion, then you should stop making jokes. If you want to make jokes, then don't expect a serious discussion.

Exhibit B) You have a theory about Bigfoot that is so unusual that many other Bigfoot believers cannot accept it. You have been promoting this theory for many years and surely must have realized that the vast majority of people reject your ideas, yet you "JUST FIGURED IT OUT [that posters on this board] know nothing about the topic." Why did you come to a skeptic site and expect people to know about what you are putting forth?

Exhibit C) Your life on Mars webpage shows photos from NASA's Mars mission. You see rocks that look like disembodied heads and conclude that these heads are actual intelligent beings. If these images were proof of life on Mars and (as you repeatedly claim) NASA is dedicated to hiding all evidence of life on Mars, why did they release the photos.

I could go on all through the alphabet, but I have other things to do.

If you want a serious discussion, then simply present the best evidence you have. If you read enough other threads in this forum, then you will see that the majority of posters here can understand and evaluate evidence in a professional manner. All that is required is that the evidence be presented in a professional manner.

Erik

Serious question here.

You've mentioned going on many boards over the years, getting banned, being ridiculed. Now you're here and all you're getting is ridicule. Does this tell you something at all? Do you think that the entire world is wrong, and you are the only one who is right? Does that seem strange to you?

You say that LAL doesn't know what he/she is talking about, but here's the difference: LAL came to debate with skeptics. With facts. With proof. It was, for the most part, a civil debate.

If you think you're going to win over skeptics by posting 'Erik is here, it's a whole new ballgame', and declaring you're going to convert us all, you're mistaken.

We need PROOF. We need EVIDENCE. Do you have that? If not, then you have no hope of 'converting' anyone. Ever.

Personally, I am extremely interested in knowning how you came to the conclusion that Bigfoot is a shapeshifting alien. Please educate us.

To a crank, it only validates their beliefs.

LAL is trying to argue from a valid, scientific standpoint. I give her oodles of credit for that.

If you think you're going to win over skeptics by posting 'Erik is here, it's a whole new ballgame', and declaring you're going to convert us all, you're mistaken.

Actually, I think he's just having fun with his ego.

Wasn't he earlier saying that evidence and proof aren't possible, because of the whole shapeshifting alien thing?

My guess is the answer to that has to do with three letters; specifically, the slightly rearranged initials of the Mormon church.

If so, we're about immunization against evidence. So, erik, is there any hypothetical evidence that could prove you wrong?

I know some things that would prove us skeptics wrong: DNA and specimens are the two that come to mind right away.

Not so.
I am resident in China and have similar hard evidence as yourself for our Yeti.

I'm keen to compare notes.

Fire away with your best stuff and we can see if we have a match.

Your call.

Damn, I did plenty of that in college and I never saw a shapeshifting alien Bigfoot. I feel cheated now.

A while back you quoted bugs bunny (cracked me up). I can't find it but it seems fitting.

I get special enjoyment from Bigfoot owing to wild adventures from my youth (not involving bigfoot other than as comic aside) on the Trinity River in CA -- bigfoot central.

erikbeckjord, I would get a huge kick if there were such a thing as bigfoot. I hope you will post some some actual evidence (preferably evidence that passes the giggle test).

Hey, he's gotta work his way up to the giggle test. Right now he's not even passing the laughing-so-hard-the-guy-in-the-next-cubicle-wonders-what-I'm-smoking test.

Pls disregard my hallucination -- I'm just trying to get into the bigfoot mindspace.
