I didn't follow that recent "DNA" Bigfoot story, is this related or just another bigfoot woo-woo?

1. Same story.
The DNA was human and opossum. These yo-yos are really stupid.

2. But don't you find it amazing....

...that Bigfoot DNA appears to be a mixture of human and opossum DNA?

I mean, THAT's the real story here.

I'm thinking that Bigfoot is some kind of mutated opossum/human hybrid.

4. Not only that - they are intelligent enough to disguise themselves

The folks who bought the carcass report that it includes a rubber gorilla suit.

I'm fascinated by the fact, based on this discovery, that Bigfoot was actively trying to disguise itself.

6. Woo?

Why, it is astounding evidence that Bigfoot wears a gorilla costume.

No wonder they are so hard to find.

Not only are they large anthropoid creatures, but they are intelligent enough to use disguises.

This is an amazing discovery.

7. No, it's a fake? Say it ain't so.
What is hilarious is this quote, "But Bigfoot experts reacted suspiciously to the men's claims and the story soon began to unravel."

Bigfoot experts were suspicious? Wow, little bit of irony there huh?

9. The scarier thought is that someone in Georgia
might've been screwing possums.

Just sayin'.

12. Deliberate misinformation campaign by Big Foot
Edited on Wed Aug-20-08 07:29 PM by enki23
The National Association of American Comprehensive Podiatrists, to use the official name (the acronym is probably just an unfortunate coincidence, or so *they* would have you believe). They're closely aligned with Big Pharma, oddly enough. They have an obvious profit motive in hiding the existence of humanoids living wild in the woods who don't wear shoes. Think about it. Humanoids who walk around outside their whole lives without shoes, and they never, ever have to go to a podiatrist. They also never use prescription drugs. Another coincidence? Everyone must decide that for themselves.

13. No... but you are close

There is an organization of Friends of Big Foot who actually promote the hoaxes, so that people will stop hunting for Bigfoot, so that the Bigfoot creatures can remain undisturbed.

Standing next to Simon Peter in Leonardo's The Last Supper.
