Bigfoot - serious, not follies

Would you believe .......... 37 ?





It is in the same category as the missing aircraft in the PNW ..





My God! Do you know how many pine cones disappear in the PNW every day ?


Why is it that you never see a sharp, clearly identifiable picture of a pine cone ? Oh, wait. Never mind..:D
 
LAL said:
Yep, but I'm about ready to stop doing that.


The point is, that that country is rugged and densely forested enough to hide aircraft (and lost people). Those mountains are certainly capable of hiding roving nocturnal beasties who seem to have no desire to hold still and be collected..

Roving nocturnal beasties? You are joking. A 'real' Bigfoot is no kind of functional nocturnal animal. That is insane. If you want to perpetuate a myth that could appeal to rationality, then you better change the beast itself. As generally described, Bigfoot does not have the morphology to support nocturnalism. It should have large eyes at a minimum, so that it can see the nighttime world. Nobody has described it this way.

All of the nocturnal primates have large eyes. This is obviously to gather the scarce photons at night which will allow them to create a functional visual image of the world. Putting aside finding food and seeing potential enemies... if you are an 8 foot tall biped, you better be able to clearly see where you are walking or you are gonna trip on logs every 50 feet and bust your face when you fall.

You Bigfoot believers really need to tighten-up your narrative. That is, unless you only want to appeal to the naive.

Who is Richard Noll? Is he taking aerial censuses of Bigfoot in Washington? He pulled a decent number out of his hat to perpetuate the myth of Bigfoot. One doesn't want to claim too many... then folks will wonder why they aren't being regularly smashed by vehicles on roads. One doesn't want to claim too few... then you can't easily justify all of the sightings that are reported. I think he could have gone for a hundred.

Thirty alone in Washington State, yet Noll can't seem to produce Bigfoot one. I like how he made up a number, and now Footers quote it like it has any meaning whatsoever.

Although, if Bigfeet are teleporting shapeshifter aliens, there could be a great many more than 30. I'd say upwards of 10 to 20 thousand...depending on what dimension they're currently in, of course.
 
Someone mistook a long-inanimate bison for a visiting sasquatch?

Seriously though, here we have a lab that was able to positively ID some badly degraded DNA from a hair sample. So what's the problem with the other scientists and their hair testing?

What? Don't you know? There are an infinite number of bigfeet in a quantum wave function state. Quantum. Their wave functions only collapse into one bigfoot when someone rents a camera for the purpose of observing them or their footprints. Uncertainty principle. After the people leave, they go back to being wave functions. Quantum, I say! But when someone wants to capture one, they remain as wave functions.

You know, I do quite a bit of hiking, some of it in the PNW…most in the Appalachia. Bears are very elusive, you know…avoid humans and all that…can smell us a mile away, etc. I’ve seen three in all the years I’ve been hiking. Three. That’s approximately three more than all the hairy primates I’ve seen in the same area. The point is, as elusive as bears are...people do see them, photograph them, and capture them.

And people hike the PNW all the time. It’s not the Himalyas. Most of it is not inaccessible. As far as Bigfoot is concerned, you’re mistaking the term “elusive” for “non-existent”.

Good way to put it.

I think the nocturnal thing started as a way to explain why all the researchers weren’t seeing more of these buggers. It does seem, however, that the bulk of Bigfoot enthusiasts and researchers have a serious lack of scientific grounding. I imagine you’ve just sent them scrambling back to the rationalizing table.

But maybe they should refocus their entire mission. If they can’t find Bigfoot, maybe they could at least settle for Wildboy:

Inconclusive! INCONCLUSIVE, I tell you! That’s science-speak for Squatch-fur! Count on it.

And besides, it’s commonly known by those in the know that Squatches regularly wear loincloths made from bison fur. Ha ha! Especially when they’re out in the forest smashing down trees…their favorite pastime.

Ahhh, yes.. BUP ( Bigfoot Uncertainty Principle )


I believe we can give El_Spectre credit for coining the term..

This sounds like some weird, inverted Bigfoot Uncertainty Principle... where the actual results change the observations :)

Of course. El_Spectre, MD, PhD, LSD, PDQ, DJFLSDFJD. His qualifications speak for themselves, so his godlike figure is completely immune to the logical fallacies us mere mortals contend with. ;)

Of course!! It all makes sense!!!

Don't you see?! This explains the anomolies in the PG video!!! Bigfoot doesn't have hairy breasts...she just wears bsion-fur brassieres!!!!

:D
 
Maybe it’s time to steer this back to our generous thread founder, and all-around fascinating character: Jon-Erik Beckjord. Did you realize he was a Loch Ness Monster expert:

http://www.beckjord.com/nessie/index.html

Love this:

" Our theory, for the record, is that Nessie is a biological animal that has ultra, very ultra, very,very ultra strange abilities and these abilities and traits, assist it in eluding capture. These abilities are controversial and mind-boggling. "
- Jon-Erik Beckjord, BA, MBA, Director NRP.

I knew that Nessie was strange, and had perhaps ultra abilities, but never would I have imagined her to have ultra, very ultra, very, very ultra strange abilities.

Honestly...is this guy for real? You can't pay for comedy this good.
 
When you begin to think about it, the myth perpetuation strategy of Jon-Erik Beckjord seems to be the most functional. If you claim that these entities are supernatural from the get go, then your position immediately becomes immune to all forms of natural rationality.

LAL's strategy also thumbs its nose at rationality... but if you demand that she align her position with rationality, she can always just demand that you prove her wrong. Or, that you must prove what dozens of others have said as being wrong. You won't. You can't. She always wins... even if Bigfoot doesn't exist at all (it doesn't).

Until one understands the human nature of myth perpetuation strategies, one cannot recognize the 'genius' produced by JE Beckjord and LAL.

And what news will you get back from the rationalizing table? Oh, well, the Bigfoots eyes have obviously adapted to the darkness, despite their small size. Or something like that.
 
This is an excellent DNA result and doesn't even slightly endanger the Bigfoot myth. There were at least nine eyewitnesses and huge footprints were found.

A Bigfoot was chasing a bison through the Yukon. Nobody saw the bison, but they did see the 8 foot tall hairy ape that was in pursuit. The footprints were Bigfoot, but that is all gone bye-bye now. Ashes to ashes. Dust to dust. Bigfoot foot prints to dust. Only the bison left hair and it was found and genetically tested. If only the tests would also reveal the extreme adrenal secretion of a bison running for its life from a towering monster ape.

You see, the truth of Bigfoot is hidden in our own technological shortcomings.

If we all would sit in lotus positions and hum, we would then understand the reality of Bigfoot. Otherwise we are just stupid bastard monkeys who do not even deserve to know the earthly righteousness of that tall hairy wild monkey. We are even too stupid to recognize that LAL is a sage and savior.

Eternal solace shall be withheld. Eternity will only come as burning hellfire to the Bigfoot skeptic. We will pay dearly for being wrong about that big stinky monkey.
 
And the chorus sang:

Still no DNA, still no body, still no bigfoot.

How long until someone claims that the DNA was really from a bigfoot but morphed into buffalo DNA due to contamination? You know, kind of like how someone else's DNA can magically become OJ Simpson's when the cops touch it.
 
Forget that, Red. How long until I admit withholding other possibilities?

I suggested Bigfoot chasing a bison. I am guilty of not suggesting a bison chasing Bigfoot.

The Running of the Bulls at Pamplona is a real thing. Skeptics only show their closed minds by not allowing for a Running of the Bison Bulls in Yukon. I'm sorry for not mentioning this possibility. I show how screwed skeptics may be in their quest for plural objectivity.

If a bison chased a Bigfoot through Yukon, honest witnesses may see the Bigfoot but not the bison. The physical evidence gathered may have only been from the bison. My apologies to any scorn that may have been wrongly placed on the good people of Yukon. Peace be to them. Peace be to Bigfoot. Peace be to bison.
