CryptidBestiary

It's nice to see a sane comment that isn't completely gloom and doom. Thank you for this small comfort friend.

While I'm not familiar with the practices of Tai Chi and its history, I am familiar with the stories and mysticism of "inner" martial arts and chi due to my cultural background. I've always been fascinated with martial arts and kung fu, and have recently taken up karate and its cultural histories. I also have a degree in kinesiology and will agree that the human body is such a complex and fascinating subject. The word "chi" or "ki" literally means air or in the context of martial arts, breath, and I will associate it as such. In every martial arts that I've seen, breathing is always a subject in the forefront. But as far as listening to tall tale stories and feats that chi can achieve, I always smile and nod but take it with a grain of salt

Probably none of that, since a ring is made for a finger. It probably magically detects if it has made contact with one. Now, if the question was what if it was put on a severed finger, then that is something to think about

That's a good observation. Admittedly, I thought that episode was funny and memorable but retrospectively, I do agree that he de-railed the whole interview format and that is ashame. Especially since Conan even said that Sean is a great interviewer

Reminds me of this video where the guy gobbles at a turkey farm and can't keep it together: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9zvgcOrTtw

I haven't actually seen it but it sounds like the premise of Her

I'm only five posts in and I'm already mentally tired

Obviously this is all for the meme and I agree with you that Europe has a lot of famous myths and folklore but you are daft if you think North America only has Big Foot/Sasquatch before creepypasta. Let me name a few for you: Jersey Devil, Wendigo, Mothman, UFO aliens, Flatwoods Monster, Skinwalker. Almost every state in the US has a cryptid. We got the Native American folklore to derive from. Not even including Mexico's vast folklore and cryptids.

Thanks friend! May all us get some well deserved rest

Me but with tiredness and depression instead of bologna

I agree with you that talking is a skill that can be developed. I think it's okay to encounter awkward situations because it's gonna happen and it happens to everyone. Ideally, you learn how to handle or react to those situations eventually, imo. It should also be okay to be quiet too given the appropriate time. Why should there be a need for someone to talk all the time.

The thing about the Chiefs is, they always try an' run it in
