    Greenie Did I miss something? Is it April 1?

    Cause Yahoo is telling me that Sasquatch/Bigfoot is real.

    Proof that Hobbits once roamed this earth.

    It's on Wiki, so surely it cannot be disputed.

    Well, small human-like creatures are likely to have existed. Calling them hobbits just makes it sound like nonsense. xD Which is what I think is going on here. Calling this new DNA they've found "Sasquatch" DNA makes them sound like complete lunatics.


    This is why nobody takes science like this seriously.

    Otherwise nobody would care. Like calling the Higgs boson a "god particle." It's ridiculous and I hate it, but there's no way to get casuals to pay attention to it otherwise

    Anyway all the article says is that they just uncovered a new Hominini hybrid species. I wouldn't be surprised if it did turn out to be a sasquatch-looking creature, but I also wouldn't be surprised if all their data was complete bunk made up to get in the news or get more money, because that's the kind of world we live in now apparently. All we can do is wait for the peer review and see if everyone agrees on whether or not there is a Bigfoot out there somewhere. Hopefully there are no redneck or hillbilly rebellions based on "WE TOLD YOU SO" because a lot of that would happen just outside my city and I don't think I could handle a beef jerky embargo xD

    Beat me to the Fox News Good show!
    You hold my heart in your manly hands I wanna feel the throb of your handsome gland. I wanna hold you tight like a newborn kitten, against my flesh like a cashmere mitten. Tickly tick, I'm makin' skin bump heaven and all the way down it's lookin' cleanly shaven. Prickety pricks, it's stubble on stubble I better slow down or I'm in real trouble. Want you, touch you, feel you, taste you! Knick knack whacky whack 'till I see the man stew. spin you around let me see that hole! I'm a tunnelin' in a like a short hair mole. Once I'm inside I'm gonna leave a trace, half in there and half on that face! One finger, two finger, there fingers gone! Mano a mano I love you John!

    I don't know what's worse on Yahoo. The "news" itself or the people in the comments section.

    Science is just something created by fundies so they have something to attack on weekends.

    I'm pretty sure "science" editors (including those at Yahoo) are just trolling people at this point.

    The devil and safe sex education doesn't already take up most of their time?

    It doesn't say anywhere in that article where they've been finding DNA! Surely they aren't finding it in Texas.

    Because we all know there aren't vast areas of brush and natural forest in Texas that are uninhabited, or at least undisturbed for the most part. That's why people never find coyotes in their own backyards, or have deer occasionally strolling down main roads.

    So what you're telling me is that Texas is an ideal an habitat for a bigfoot?
