Big Foot


Mr.Dazed has a mild obsession with Big Foot.
He watches every bloody awful documentary he can, usually featuring people who look like they've just stepped out of Deliverance, claiming to have seen one /captured one/recorded one making "Big Foot" noises.

None of it is very convincing but, bless him he wants so much to believe.

What mythical creature do you wish was real?




reply

Dracula

reply

I'd ask why, but hey, it's hownos...😏

reply

He always loses in the end but he is persistent.

reply

But if he were real, he wouldn't be following a script, so maybe he's not really a loser! 😱

reply

All the creatures mentioned here are fictional. Dracula is just a more developed character.

reply

😜

reply

He is based on Vlad isn't he?

reply

I can understand the fascination because no one seems to have a believable explanation, at least not that I've ever heard. I think a lot of it is wishful thinking. Who doesn't like a mystery?

reply

Definitely a little mystery in life is a good thing.

reply

I'm going with Brownies, since they seem the most useful. A creature whose raison d'Γͺtre is to sneak into our houses at night and do housework? Sold!

Definitely NOT Mothman or Thunderbirds! Weird giant flying things, no thanks.

I'm on the fence about big foot. I could buy such an animal exists, and is canny enough to have not yet been captured, or killed by us humans, but has been seen many times. All the sightings I've seen are all in heavily wooded areas, never deserts or urban or even suburban areas, which would make sense.

There have been a number of seasoned forest rangers who've reported seeing them, and you'd certainly think they'd know enough to not mistake what they saw for a bear, which is the only other animal that sounds anything like big foot.

The main thing I wonder about is why hasn't anyone yet found a single skeleton or remains, if they do exist?

reply

I'm with you on Brownies, I often suspect we have one who comes into my house, eats all the food and hides stuff!

I just read out your reply to Mr.D and his response is that people rarely find bear skeletons either or bird skeletons come to that!

reply

I'm 99% sure I have a badly-trained brownie who hides stuff and dirties the place up!

#browniefails!

Is that true, that bear and bird skeletons are scarce on the ground? What happens to them all?? 😱

reply

And he's right.

reply

Definitely NOT Mothman or Thunderbirds! Weird giant flying things, no thanks.


Ditto that. I'm terrified of regular moths. Mothman? I'd drop with a heart attack at first sight of it.

reply

Santa Claus, I think he'd be a good laugh.

What's yours Dazed?

reply

You mean Father Christmas?

For me it's the existence of magic, not in a Paul Daniels away but making things happen with rituals, thoughts and spells. Keeping negativity at bay and keeping things safe.
Wizards are cool!

reply

How did we get from Santa to wizards???

Do you know something Dazed?

reply

I don't know much [giveup]

reply

That's exactly what a grand wizard would say!

reply

Why can't we have the imdb emoticons here [sigh]

reply

I know, that other filmboard or whatever it's called has got them [sad]

reply

I know and they're just wasted on them all they do is talk about doxxing and ben [hairrise]

reply

I've only seen the place from Croft and a few others highlighting it. The members there seem to be having their fun and so bully for them.

But why can't we get the emotes too?

reply

You'd have to ask the mythical creature that is Jim.
Does he actually exist?

reply

I think he may have existed, like so many of my personas did in the past but now he's gone - gone, gone, oh oah oh oah!

reply

Did you just fess up to actually being Jim???πŸ˜‰
That's how I read it.
Is that Johnny Mathis?

reply

Nah Dazed, if I were Jim this ship would be run a little tighter.

There'd be the old emotes for one!

reply

I miss the old IMDb emoticons [none]

Keyboard emojis just aren't the same.

reply

Indeed they are not [no]

reply

Imagine what trouble we could get into, er, I mean fun we could have, if we had both! [yes]
