There are nuts of all sorts. I heard about some guy out in Utah, I believe, who kept insisting that he'd found the fossilized teeth and scales of "sea dragons" (not the close relative of the seahorse). Everyone who looked at the specimens agreed that they were just abiological quartzite chunks, but he made so much noise that finally a state legislator he'd been pestering agreed to send a state-funded paleontologist out to review the find. Of course, the paleontologist came to the logical conclusion that he was looking at Precambrian quartzite, and said as much in his report. The nutjob now submits for publication papers on "PRECAMBRIAN sea dragons".
Also, Robert Bakker, a well-respected paleontologist who may have gone slightly round the bend in recent times, has suggested that Dimetrodon fed mostly on Xenacanthus (a shark), as depicted here.

While this is parody, people must realize that the "fossil record" of early man for example, is make up of very few specimens. There are huge time gaps, and leaps of logic.

The gaps in the record, of course, are tolerated by an overwhelming belief in evolutionary theory.

You still shouldn't mess with krakens.

We must recognize that no individual kraaken is inherently more worthy of attention than any other kraaken, and further proceed to debate the kraaken protocols until they all lose patience and wander off.

Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't it possible to be both predator and prey? Isn't that, like, the most common relationship animals have with each other after parasitistic relationships?

@8: If you think we haven't found many specimens of early humans, think again: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Ho…
Fuck off, you creationist berk.

Hey, it's a hypothesis. It's just not the most logical hypothesis.

Please wait...
