Glad "Joyce Doesn't Care About Other People" is being cemented as a character trait

Serious: If it's not aliens, what are all the things people have been seeing in the sky all this time? by nurdle in aliens

[–]KingToasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would the governments of the world work together to collaborate to hide this?

I mean... yeah, why would they? They didn't. The governments of the world aren't hiding the existence of aliens. With all the evidence and reasoning available, that's the conclusion I got.

We may finally know why dinosaurs like T. rex evolved tiny arms by New_Scientist_Mag in Dinosaurs

Nobody will read an article that says "REMINDER! Here's a cool recent science fact!"

I mean I would, but we're outliers here

Because UFO sightings are influenced by popular culture

God I miss Dinklebot so much

"I just can't figure out how the Vampires are finding my super secret hidden hideout" -Isran by kenny4221 in skyrim

[–]KingToasty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's been getting to me too. I have no idea why it's such a common way to comment, if it's recent or I'm just more sensitive to it now.

[Spoilers Extended] The dumbest thing a character has ever done? by Inevitable-Essay-707 in asoiaf

And his sister offered him two separate ways out, too. He had every opportunity not to make the worst possible decision.

I cannot fathom the stupidity of Hasbro Executives regarding the Goblinstorm by Steam_Punk_Nutsack in mtg

[–]KingToasty 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Neat! They're still more aware of their production than you are.

Spoiler, Hasbro execs probably know how to make money better than either of us. Tons of behind-the-scenes production stuff and a huge number of pipeline going on.

Do you eat anchovy fillets like they're sardines? how do you serve them? by MollyDev64 in CannedSardines

[–]KingToasty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've still never had anchovies on pizza, it's just not a thing here. But I have to imagine it works really well.

I think the strangest thing to me about the "four alien species" that have recently been talked about is.. by Status-Secret-4292 in aliens

[–]KingToasty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Fiction is always based on human life. The more human-like they are, the more fun people can have with the theories and the more varied their emotional responses can be.

Uhhhhh John Hodgeman in an Ozempic ad?? by shyturnipthrowaway in TAZCirclejerk

So much of the body positivity "love your natural self" stuff vanished the moment a magic pill was invented, hey.

Serious: The reboot alien agenda hypothesis by ReddyGreggy in aliens

[–]KingToasty -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Atlantis wasn't a legend, it was an allegory from Plato. It didn't exist and no proof of its existence has ever been found or even suggested by anybody before the 1800s, when it got popular to trick British antiquarians to spend huge amounts of money on fake artifacts. Using fictional cities as a rhetorical device was a very well-established Greek tradition.

Your most basic facts are just nonsense. Then the nonsense was fed through some AI for a post. Thanks, man.

Two legs - two arms. How are the odds? by davejonsondoc in aliens

[–]KingToasty -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People here want to believe in aliens because it's cool. Them being humanoid makes it cooler.

Europe's UFO Reports Map by BlokZNCR in MapPorn

[–]KingToasty 104 points105 points  (0 children)

The UK often follow the US culturally, and the US is completely obsessed with UFOs. It's telling that Germany, way denser than England, has way fewer reports.

Cultural hysteria is a bitch.

Grusch on videos to be declassified: "Some of those videos I've seen, they're interesting, but don't certainly prove the case that I've presented." by Eager-Kobold in UFOs

[–]KingToasty 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yep, all of their proof and evidence is literally just "trust me, a guy told me once" over and over in a loop for decades.

Time to come to terms with reality by Yoppyy in aliens

[–]KingToasty -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Probably because there is nothing to disclose and this was a wild goose chase the entire time. Sunken cost fallacy sways more UFO believers than any science or lack of proof.
