ELIC: Why are all the photos of Bigfoot so blurry?
  • 55 points Raelshark

    Because Bigfoot actually is blurry. Which makes him extra scary.

    He lives between our dimension and the next so he's already phasing in and out

    This one was actually covered in an actual C&H strip:

    HOBBES: These pictures of me are kinda fuzzy

    CALVIN: YOU’RE kinda fuzzy! 😡

    I took a pretty clear picture of Bigfoot actually. It was last year at the monster truck show.

    The universe installed a privacy filter on him. The moment a camera sees him, reality goes: "Nope, not today," and smudges everything like a greasy fingerprint on glass.

    The photos are sharp. Bigfoot is blurry.

    Bigfoot has poor eyesight?

    You know how some people's eyes make everything look blurry? Every Bigfoot is like that.

    We have glasses to correct the blurry vision, but Bigfoot don't.

    But you know how if you put on glasses and you don't need them, everything hets blurry? That means some kinds of blurriness cancel each other out.

    That's how Bigfoots evolved. In order to be able to see each other clearly, they became very blurry themselves. To each other, they look perfectly clear and we look blurry, but to us, they look blurry.

    Since our cameras are meant to capture images and videos that look like what we see, Bigfoots appear blurry through them.

    Big Foot has an extra layer of dark matter that bends light around them, making them blurry to the naked eye and anything else further than 5 meters away.

    Edit I kinda like raelshark's more than mine, mine feels unoriginal

    Raelshark's is a quote from Mitch Hedberg, comic genius.

    Bigfoot was the result of a top secret government experiment. As such, he’s extremely radioactive, and disrupts all electronics nearby. This is also why people who see him and spend time hunting him tend to go insane.

    Because if the picture is sharp and clear, it obviously isn’t bigfoot. Bigfoot exists in a kind of heisenbergian uncertainty field where it’s impossible to take a sharp photo of it.

    The pictures are actually crystal clear. Bigfoot himself is blurry.

    They're all made on Japanese film, which blurs all... interesting... content... ... and a Big Foot obviously qualifies as that.

    The “foot” in his name ain’t talking about his shoe size, that’s for sure

    Because he is an interdimensional being

    It’s illegal to use the good cameras on him.

    Their fur is a natural Faraday cage, effectively blurring any attempt to take a photo of them.

    Oddly, he's only a 9 1/2 shoe size.

    Because Bigfoot is Japanese so they blurr his penis. He is all penis. Or with so much hair they don’t know where to stop the blurring

    I heard that big foot is actually radioactive. He's related to the elephant foot in chernobyl. Foots just their surname.

    Because I had to poop and was in a hurry.

    Bigfoot is a huge hairy creature. So obviously it's hard to wipe after a poo with just leaves with all that hair. So Bigfoot smells absolutely horrid, hence the stink makes the air around it literally wavy and blurs.
