I never saw it. Ergo, it does not exist.
Your superior logic will of course agree with this.

Depends. Straight up Cartesian logic supports that hypothesis. If you have not seen it, it does not exist...to you. A more realistic thought process would take into consideration the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle and parallel Schrodinger's Cat - it both exists and does not exist at the same time until you open the box to find out. Or in this case, my pants.
Personally, I reckon it's larger than life.

Ah yes, it's always tricky knowing which logical principles apply in any given situation. In this case it may be more appropriate to fall back on Aristotelian clarity: it either is or isn't. Or perhaps Plato's more basic concept: what you see is only a shadow. My favourite though is Wittgenstein's assertion that it's just words.

especially since it gets into thinktile dysfunction and gets grewsome at a time when it has to think.
Without a choice, they have been taking it with a laid-back attitude for long. Works well when taking aloan, and installments comes in trickles with no interest.
