If you saw a raging sasquach standing in your back yard, about to kill your kid or animal or both. What would be the best type of round to kill it with..assuming you would kill it and save your kid or animal...

That is assuming one round would do it. If not, you would maybe save your kid or animal anyhow
cause the sasquach would now be wounded and come after you...

I would use a round boulder that would be dropped on its head.


I used to have one of those signs, but then realized how annoying it was...

Round? As in ammunition caliber. I would use a .50AE (12.7mm) bullet.

I would give him one "round" of Tekken. If I win, he sods off. If I lose, he gets to eat said child/pet.

What are you talking about? I wouldn't drop it on the kid or the animal, just the sasquach.

Hmmm... interesting question. I have a couple of different ideas.

Hire a Mole to dig a tunnel under him and then have it cave in trapping him. Then I could build a cage around the hole and make some money showing off my own personal Sasquach (10 bucks a viewing).

Sneak up behind him and take a chunk of his hair off using a hair clipper/razor. Then sell it on Ebay. Provided I would have to run for my life after I did that, at least my kid/animal would be saved.

Go outside nude. Could go both ways...

Hire the Capital One Vikings and have them bum rush him and ask him about his Credit Score.

Tell him he has a phone call from his mom on line one and he's in big trouble...

Hahaha I laughed out loud!

If the sasquatch was eating my animal, I wouldn't care. I would let it do its thing, and try to trap it. After all, sasquatch fur is valuable on the black market

I am quite sure the kid or animal would still die.

What is wrong with you people. How many times, just the sasquatch, nothing else. It's not a particularly large bomb so it's not likely to simultaneously squash all three subjects. Unless of course it has already proceded to maul either the animal or the kid. Either way, a couple of broken legs, a severed head, nothing serious.

I would drop some heavy metal, like megadeth on it, thus squashing the sasquatch.

He's assuming said bomb is unarmed and won't explode.

Well why on earth would you waste an atomic bomb by detonating it once when you can simply use it as a crushing object many times over? I really do not see the logic in that.

16 ton weight


EDIT: I mean 16 ton atomic bomb, like Benjamin said. I think it would take more than one atom, however.

Ah right you are. Good plan. However, you seem to have forgotten a key part of this plan. How are you going to lift it?

Quote: "No, I mean 16 ton...not its yield, its weight."

Of course. It's an atom bomb, not a bloody racing car. Who cares how big the blast radius is.

And not your bear hands? I think you should consider this, bears are much stronger than humans. They are capable of lifting heavier atomic bombs.

That is taking the problem head on...Yes, I suppose that some sort of overly elaborate Rube Goldberg contraption is in order. Yes, I will get the Dipponomic engineers from Pizza Hut to work on that, as soon as they figure out how to put more cheese in my pizza.

WRT the radius...the kid and the animal care, I'm sure!

Bear hands? Why would I use those when I killed a bear last week with my bare hands! Apparently my bare hands are better than his bear hands.

This is a rediculous discussion that I will not be a part of ....

... although, for reference, I would tie the sasquach's shoe laces together and then run away. If the sasquach wasn't wearing shoes, I would question it's ability to kill my child/animal seeing as it's not even capable of remembering to put its shoes on.

I believe a good, solid elephant slug would take the beast down. If not, it certainly won't be intact anymore.

Save my kids from the Sasquach?
If the Sasquach didn't run away in terror afer the first 30 seconds of being with my three boys, I'd hire it as a babysitter.
