Is my dad trolling?

[MrTaquito]

My dad claims to have seen an alien (or Slenderman) when he was 21, this is exactly what he told me.

"I was walking down the street coming home from the bar one night, and about when I was about to walk into my driveway I turned around because I thought I heard something, and right off into the distance I saw what had abnormal features, such as stilt-like long legs, and from how I was looking at it, kind of like an alien head but it was faceless. I couldn't help but think that it was at that moment I was going completely insane, but nevertheless, it was right there standing very still, almost motionless. I remember getting up a little closer to it and asking it for a smoke, and it ran away faster than you can say Fuck. I'm not entirely sure what it was, it could have been an asshole on stilts for all we know, or there could be more to it than that."

So, is this legitimate? You guys seem to be experts on telling trolls, so I figured I'd ask you.

Aliens don't exist. And if they did then they would have no.interest in us and would be nothing like what we have made up.

[Mownkey]

I can tell that your dad isn't trolling. Maybe he just suffered from hallucinations.

Oh? You have god-given knowledge about this?

AND you've managed to have met with these non-existent aliens and have a cozy conversation with them

how does that make any sense that aliens don't exist?

there is no way that Earth is the only planet with any type of life form on it, that just sounds silly.

yeah, I troll everyone so hard in every post that they don't even know they're being trolled.

Some people see strange things. Everyone sees something out of the ordinary at least once. You decide if it's real or not.

Yeah, everyone sees something weird at least once... everyone except for me.

Makes sense.

maybe he was shy, or he didn't feel he would be accepted because he didn't have a smoke to offer.

I would normally have a LOT to comment on this, but I woke up at 5 in the fucking morning without any coffee. I'll just leave it at "I bet you have."

You don't know if this travel is easy or difficult for aliens.Also you don't know if they need food or if no gravity is an difficulty for them. Maybe radiation is as necessary for them as oxygen is for us BTW. In fact interstellar travel can be a way of entertainment to them instead of a hardship.Aliens maybe didn't want to annoy anyone on earth so they try to be sneaky,but they didn't notice OP's dad.And because his dad seemed scared they left because they didn't want to terrify anyone.

Makes sense to me.

your dad is a epic troll

There are millions and millions of planets in our whole galaxy, and even more than that throughout all the universe. How could we be the only planet with hospitable conditions?

Watch out, he'll probably dress up as a fake slenderman or something, and scare the shit out of you.
And you should also watch MarbleHornets on YouTube. Show it to your dad.

1) Aliens do not exist, until proven otherwise. You can claim, you can wish that aliens have existed, but you will not be taken seriously if you provide no evidence. Agreed?

2) The mass universe in length is not relevant to the question if whether or not there is life out there somewhere. Everything you hear on this planet about aliens is all commercial lies. Agreed?

clearly, someone slipped some sick shit in his drink that incited hallucinations during his walk home

By that logic, aliens do exist unless you can prove that they don't

I'm so glad you know for a fact that they don't exist

1. I'm glad you also have this conspiracy theory against.... I dunno, scientists or something

No scientist has ever come out and been like "Hey guys, I know for a god given fact that aliens exist"

2. There is literally an uncountable amount of planets in the univers

We LITERALLY created a word just for the specific situation, and it's called a Googol

See that big ass number? That's the ballpark of how many panets exist

You would have to be a complete and total moron to truly believe that earth is THE ONLY ONE OF ALL OF THEM that has life

I know for a fact that they do not exist thus far, hence the evidence is smaller than an amoeba's genitalia. This is a rational decision based off of a rational mind. If you do not agree, tell me why.

What makes my rational decision to not accept something until it is proven and observed as a factual basis an attempt to conspire against scientists?

Yes, but they are making conclusions off of a failed hypothesis. The chance of aliens existing has nothing to do with how massive our universe is. Notice how we still have yet to find anything in this universe. Ignorance is just as massive as our universe, and no intelligence or light comes out of it. For something so massive, you would think that there would be something in there. Agreed?

2. There is literally an uncountable amount of planets in the univers

Quantity and numbers does not provide the fact that we have never discovered a single space race since we've existed. Therefore we do not have any way to observe what counts as a real factor to discovering extra intelligence in space. Agreed?

We LITERALLY created a word just for the specific situation, and it's called a Googol

Quantity does not shape the concept behind aliens in any way, shape or form. Agreed?

See that big ass number? That's the ballpark of how many panets exist

Giant numbers don't mean a thing. Our society is shaped by the giant numbers, see where that got us? Yes or no.

You would have to be a complete and total moron to truly believe that earth is THE ONLY ONE OF ALL OF THEM that has life.

That is wishful thinking based off of a false epistemology on what constitutes a chance for discovering intelligent life in our universe. You have to have evidence to provide for your claims, or your claims are equivalent to a building without any support beams. Do you agree?

Don't even bother. JBK has already been confirmed for being a useless fucking idiot by now.

Ugggghhhh

I'm too tired for this

I'm not using wishful thinking, I'm using common sense, and logic. Where did we come from? Were we magically whisked up from dirt, and the rib of a man?

We started out as bacteria, and over hundreds of millions of years, turned into this

I think you think that alien means a human like anthropod that has 2 arms and 2 legs

No, nonononononono

An alien life form can be nothing more than a little bacteria swimming around in the nitrogen ocean of a planet billions of lightyears away from here

We don't really need hard evidence, logic tells us that where there's water, there will almost always be life

A bullshit story about a popular meme/creepypasta character turned a bullshit "intellectual" debate about the existence of unknown life forms...

I'm talking about real intelligent life that involves intelligent life forms that do not float around space like fecal matter floats in sewage water. I'm already aware of the molecular forms of life, but none of us have discovered real bodies of intelligence in space, and that is what I mean by saying 'aliens'. You don't hear much about the bacterial life in space, but you hear all of the time about what if there was other intelligent life forms out there in space. So when you say 'aliens', I think of two types: The type that you hear about on TV and other people making claims for encountering these aliens, and the type that I have previously mentioned. My logic is infallible. Evidence, or it never happened/existed. Do you ever notice that there is not one thing in this world that exists that we can prove without evidence? Everything that is axiomatically sensible is observable, demonstrable and followed by a critical system of rational exercises and testing to verify their conclusions. Saying ''aliens exist, because the world is too big for aliens not to exist'' is not being rational. Would you agree?

I have yet to see you come up with something witty and intelligent that sparks a real debate on real issues. Turn to the mirror before pointing a finger.
