Re: New Cryptid or Brave Elf Possibly Spotted in Iceland

Thomm Quackenbush — Mon, 17 Aug 2020 14:24:57 -0000

It sure looks like someone playing with a black doll just out of sight. It's facial features never change and it moves as though someone is holding its feet and jerking it around.

Re: Bigfoot Sighting in New York — Shutdown Over?

Gayle is wonderful. I've given talks with her about the paranormal. She is just about the sweetest person you will ever meet. Everyone around here knows her, by reputation, if not by name.

Re: Mysterious Supposedly Real Photos of Shadow People

"I didn't see a person there when I took the picture" or "I don't remember seeing anyone else" does not necessarily equate to "no one was there." We should eliminate likelihoods before leaping to Shadow People as an explanation.

Re: McConnell Blocks Senate Resolution to Release Mueller Report After Unanimous House Vote

I would say that this will be a dark chapter in our history books, but Texas is the state that decides what goes in them.

Re: Famous Hacker Thinks We Live In a Simulation, Wants to Start a Church to Escape

Bold of Hotz to assume he exists outside the simulation.

Did anyone check the settings on the Infinite Improbability Drive?

Was there a flowerpot nearby?

Re: Strange Visitors: “I can find you anywhere, any time”

Thomm Quackenbush — Sun, 25 Nov 2018 13:24:32 -0000

I thought the same. They agreed to tell no one, but didn't bat an eye (inasmuch as people do) then MIB are knocking on the door.

Re: Unidentified Humanoid Creature Seen Near George Washington’s Estate

Thomm Quackenbush — Sun, 12 Aug 2018 10:28:16 -0000

It reminds me of the Dover Demon sighting, with a few details warped.

Re: I, Tonya

That last line was so obvious and I snorted laughing at it anyway. Well done.

Re: Skier Who Vanished in New York was Found Seven Days Later… in Sacramento

Where is David Paulides? Has he weighed in about this case that seems so very up his alley?

Re: Alien Abductees and a Mysterious Liquid

Thomm Quackenbush — Sun, 29 Oct 2017 16:10:49 -0000

This happens in The Abyss, too, and they did not fake it, which makes the movie far more unsettling to me.

Re: Mystery Origami with Ominous Warning Found Throughout Seattle

Thomm Quackenbush — Fri, 29 Sep 2017 22:01:01 -0000

Yeah, if you go to the site, its screeds link to an anti-choice site.

It is a disappointingly quickly solved mystery.

Re: Sex with Robots Just Got a Lot Deadlier

Humanity had a good run. Don't we deserve to go out with a bang?

Re: Vampire Expert and Professor Caught Licking Blood in Class

Thomm Quackenbush — Thu, 24 Aug 2017 23:15:13 -0000

You are not to drink your students' blood! It is nearly the first thing they teach you when you start taking your education classes. (I have an MS Ed, so I know of what I speak. Don't sleep with them, don't drink their blood, and leave a paper trail for when parents complain.)

Re: So, CBS is Going to Make a Jack Parsons Show Apparently

Thomm Quackenbush — Thu, 03 Aug 2017 13:36:21 -0000

I am in favor of this if only because I used Parsons in my 2013 novel Artificial Gods and maybe this will give me splashback sales.

Re: Pokemon Search Bar Cheat Sheet

Thomm Quackenbush — Sat, 01 Jul 2017 08:37:44 -0000

I could do with the ability to search by appraisal or IV.

Re: Anonymous Claims NASA Already Has Knowledge of Aliens

Thomm Quackenbush — Thu, 29 Jun 2017 07:41:42 -0000

If Nasa, which has had its funding cut time and again, had evidence of anything exciting that might restore said funding, I am certain they would not shut up about it.

Re: New App Can Tell You If You Are Psychic or Not

Thomm Quackenbush — Wed, 28 Jun 2017 07:26:41 -0000

My precognitive abilities tell me I would only be disappointed if I download this.

I must be a stinkin' mutie!

Re: Chilling Photographs Linked to Mysterious Vanishings and Bizarre Deaths

Thomm Quackenbush — Sat, 17 Jun 2017 23:08:53 -0000

If that is the case, what is the function of taking (and leaving behind) the Polaroid? "Here is a picture of what you look like when I leave you alone. You know, to keep you company?"

The last two panels feature my name... the last two panels before the hiatus...

I HAVE COME, KARL! I HAVE RESPONDED THE TO MOON BEARS SUMMONING. YOU MAY RESUME THE COMIC!

Re: Major Medical School Cancels Spoon Bending Seminar

Thomm Quackenbush — Sun, 05 Jun 2016 11:32:55 -0000

I had a professor in a child psychology class who had us bend spoons with our minds.

The trick was to use your hands.

The second trick was that the professor used aluminum spoons for her demonstration and gave us steel spoons.

Re: Photo Gallery: Pine Bush UFO Fair

Thomm Quackenbush — Wed, 25 May 2016 21:53:00 -0000

The alien with the green face, pink shirt, tie, and silver briefcase is filmmaker John Mattiuzzi, if you want to caption it.

Re: Photos: "Roswell Of The East Coast" Attracts UFOs & Donald Trump

Thomm Quackenbush — Tue, 24 May 2016 14:19:54 -0000

I was one of the speakers in the Paranormal Center and wrote a novel about Pine Bush and the UFO Fair called "Artificial Gods."

My mistake in not getting interviewed was clearly not wearing green face paint.

I will not make this mistake again.

Re: UFOs: Extraterrestrial? Probably Not…

Thomm Quackenbush — Wed, 06 Apr 2016 06:42:13 -0000

This article could serve as a thesis statement to my 2013 novel "Artificial Gods." We are dealing with something that has been pretending to be elves, fairies, djinn, etc. since time immemorial. Now we are a scientific race, so we think they are aliens.

Re: Mad Gasser or Mad M.I.B.?

Thomm Quackenbush — Sat, 27 Feb 2016 10:54:34 -0000

That was suggested, though the plant pointed out that the accused chemical was harmlessly used for fire extinguishers and certainly wasn't cutting screens.
