ReplyDelete^ humor fail ^
ReplyDeleteIt's always nice to hear Mike's opinions.
ReplyDeleteRugg as in Rugged Mother F*cker. The man is a badass and we love him.
ReplyDeleteGood video. Thanks, Mr. Rugg.
ReplyDeleteThis is why I hate bigfoot community. Tom Biscardi support this moron.
ReplyDeleteMike Rugg is NO moron. He is intelligent, well-read, articulate and has A LOT of heart.
DeleteI agree that he is no moron. He is intelligent, and he is well read. He is also completely nuts.
ReplyDeleteHominology? Are you serious? Just another made up term to make those who use it feel special. A study in "unkown" things is an unknown study group. Like people using Cryptozoology like it's some kind of science! Well there are no courses of study in any academic filed for crypto anything nor is there for this new fad word "hominology. It looks like anyone can pick up a book about BF and read a few pages and claim they're Hominologists! This kind of crap is just plane silly as hell and shows the world just how nuts people can get. Want to make a good impression? Use real terms and real science and real evidence for a change.
ReplyDeleteAre you serious?
DeleteOk, what would be the correct term sir?
Cryptozoology has been around for quite a while? I beleive there are a few colleges that offer it as a course.
Speaking of feeling special, boy you sure stirred up a hornets nest didn't you. Are you proud of your efforts?
What good has it accomplished? But along with that answer, please explain how you know anything about the photo or the conditions under which mellissa accquired it, If you can't.
WELL, DON'T BOTHER TO ANSWER AT ALL, CAUSE YOUR JUST AS BIG OF AN ATTENTION SEEKING NUT AS YOU ACCCUSE EVERYONE ELSE OF BEING.
Geez, talk about not being able to see the forrest for the trees ------
Or maybe "calling the kettle Black" is a more appropriate analogy.
Oh I’m so sorry. I didn’t know this was a “members only” affair. Should I have worn a tux and tie for this? Maybe I should had shown my membership card for Bullsh*t at the door so I would be accepted. Hey – thanks for pointing out that “some” colleges offer cyptozoology as a course. Is that the same college that offers basket weaving and self healing through positive affirmations? That was very useful information you had there. Now why don’t you be a good little boy and run off to find this as an accredited field of study and indicate this as a course requirement in any scientific field of study. As far as the attention thing – I’ve always found it interesting how some people can create websites, actively seek out talk shows, show up on Monster Quest and promote themselves as some kind of expert and not get a peep from people like you – but when someone else who just has a little youtube channel and facebook just gives an honest opinion then all of a sudden it’s the pot calling the kettle black and I have no right. Good one – I’m sure that everyone will see the comparisons and …agree with you on that one, Sherlock. As far as stirring up a hornets nest and not accomplishing anything by doing it, let me just say that I just offered up my opinion on a Youtube video. People could have ignored it and it would have just gone away. I emailed Melissa and asked her a few questions. She could have ignored it and it would have gone away. But, no. Nope – her type and those in her camp must have the last word when it comes to BS. She took our personal communication and plastered on an open forum. I think she can share in this pot stirring. But unlike you – I’m glad it happened. I was hoping it would happen. Any time I can help to pull up sh*t being promoted and hold it up to the light for scrutiny; I’m a happy camper. Yeah; maybe I planted the dynamite that ultimately caused this whole thing to blown up – but when the dust finally settles I think everyone will be a little more the wiser for it

DeleteMike has earned respect and appreciation for what he does and says concerning sasquatch. You cannot take that away from him and your negative criticism just bounces off.
Any failure regarding sasquatch is not because of of the interest taken in it by non-official non-politicaly correct people but by scientists as a whole, where on offer is a wonderful and interesting phenomena which they spurn because its not gift wrapped as most sit on their hands almost planning its disappearance via extinction. Incidently sasquatch studies are in the habds or reputable scientists already.
Why dont you make some polite constructive criticisms if you are inclined and value those things which you can find of worth.
You dont need to wait until you get a little course and a diploma, sasquatch is there waiting for you to explore in good fellowship and read mark and inwardly digest

Deleteto Norman (or Chatherine) Mike looks like a nice guy and has a cool museum. My intent wasn't to criticize his efforts. I was merely trying to comment on the use of terminologies. But I don't think we should be concentrating on how we are perceived by each other in the BF community as much as how we are perceived by everyone else. If we are to reach out, what we don't need is to have someone look up the word "cryptozoology", then read that it's the study of mythical creatures. They'll just sit back, roll their eyes and say "Yep - that's the Bifoot people for you!" I'm just a guy looking for answers and the last thing I want is for someone to think I'm "special".

ReplyDeleteMelissa has never stated to know what the photo is and that it is a mystery to her, so no false claim.
All she did was share the mystery with us, period.
And you decide it's up to you to correct the world as you see it, same for the snowman, jackass!
Some people are just having fun and like the mystery.
I really don't know what legal right Melissa has on the photo, my point is simply that people can own rights to things that they did not primarily create.
I really don't follow Mellisas' stuff, so maybe you can answer, has she gained fame or popularity in this field by trashing others? And i'm not talking about her deffending herself.
Hi again Leon. You said "Melissa has never stated to know what the photo is and that it's a mystery to her." I agree. I've never said otherwise.
Delete"And you decide it's up to you to correct the world as you see it." No, I don't and I haven't. Just as you come here now and criticize me, so I come and criticize her. What rights do you or her have that I don't? Yes - people can own rights to things they haven't created. when have I said they couldn't? In answer to how she has gained fame or popularity in this "field", I have no idea. It doesn't matter. I don't care. What I care about is being able to ask a few questions without having a false DMCA claim made on two videos and having them removed.
(note) it looks like there was a double post made on my last one - my fault. I didn't clear it from the screen before making this one.
Same for Mike Rugg, I don't think he gained fame by trashing others.
ReplyDeleteBUT YOU AND SNOWHEAD, THIS SEEMS TO BE S.O.P.
At least you guys are out there and don't hide behind an Anon.
I stuck my nose in this because attacks like these can STOP the flow of information that all of us enjoy / crave in this oddity.
ReplyDeleteIf you get your hands on a strange piece of info/ photo / video, even if some background info is shakey, but your honest about it being a wild card and can't verrify, I still want to see it!
I'll be here deffending you!
And it's one thing to just come here and debate by posting, but you and snowball go to the lengthy extreem of making and posting vids about others ----- truly mean spirited ----- but well within your rights.
Your not just questioning, your projecting. You and the SNOWBALL have tak'in the step through the media door.
Your mindset looks very enveous.
Are you an lib / occupy kinda guy!
I can't do for myself, so i'll take from others!
Even Rick Dyer came up with some crazy scheem to achive the fame he so desperatly craved.
Some feel the need to attach to others to achive what they can't accomplish on thier own!
Leon; if attempting to ask questions that others refuse to answer is extreme, then I'm guilty as charged. If interjecting rational thought into a topic loaded full of speculation and over active imagination is extreme, then I'm guilty as charged. The flow of information only works when it goes both ways. I call it the way I see it. If you think my mindset looks very envious then your mindset looks very ignorant. Making assumptions is no way to go through life, Leon.
ReplyDeleteBut everything you've done is based on assumptions, and you took the step of posting it.
ReplyDeleteMy point exactly!
You make the ASSUMPTION, that your rational is the one that should be injected. So did Hitler.
Your just another stupid Lib that thinks he knows best for others! You don't!
Get off your fat ass, out from behind the YOUR DESK, and go film or photograph your own Bigfoot evidence.
Then I'll believe you know SHIT from WILD HONEY, cause right now all you are is a Crying freaking WHANNA-BE!
Total DIPSHIT!!!
Oh I am so sorry, Leon. I had no idea that I was in the presence of a real life BF hunter? I would love to see all of those great photos of yours. And that Hitler thing was a stroke of genius! I've never heard that kind of comparison before. Did you come up with that on your own or did you have to dig through those old Watchtower magazines for that? And why should I get out from behind my desk when I can just wait until somebody sends me a photo that I can cry over for 4 years before posting with zero information about it? You are wrong about me not knowing the difference between honey and shit - on the one hand honey is sweet and on the other hand - there's your post. See? Easy.
DeleteAll Mellisa ever did was say,
ReplyDeletefolks here is a photo.
The situation is screwed, I know because the guy won't come forward.
I only know a limitted amount of info.
IF THERE IS ONE PERSON WHO HAS THE RIGHT TO EVEN QUESTION THE FACT / OR CHALLENGE THE COPYRIGHT, THAT WOULD BE THE GUY WHO SHOT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did you ever consider the thought that by her posting the photo, it may drive the guy out to challenge the copyright.
He could proove it was his by showing the other photos in a series we've heard speculation about.
Maybe she is smarter than you think,--speculative
Simple point.
Does your Rational equate to
1. something productive
or
2. something destructive
to our community?
She provided news / evidence, no matter how weak.
You only bring mud-sligg'in and controversy.
JUST LIKE THOSE OCCUPY DORKS!
POINTLESS ENDEAVOR!
1. That's not all she did.
Delete2. Wrong - everyone has the right to question.
3. Yes I did consider that - and then dismissed it as dumb.
4. My posts and videos are productive.
5. She provided worthless garbage.
6. I bring controversy - you bet your ass.
7. You do have one point - it's the top of your head.
