I was just looking up a list of cryptids because I forgot the name of one, and I discovered that the Wikipedia "Cryptid List" is really, really comprehensive, and shows pictures of a lot of them beside each entry.
I thought you might secretly want to browse the list too:

That is a good list! There is lots of comprehensive lists like that on Wikipedia - I spent a lot of time looking through them. They are a great read

Wikipedia is AWESOME. The best part is that they actually give the sources for the information, and if some of the information doesn't have good enough sources the article will actually tell you that.
This is a big, big improvement on the old "Paper Encyclopedias" that never gave you the sources for the information in each entry. We were just supposed to "trust them."
Proper academic writing requires proper sources. Jimmy "Blue" Whale was the founder of Wikipedia and I think he is a world historical genius. -

When I was in college, it was always made little of by the lecturers and academics for it not been a reliable source for information but I totally disagree. I think it is a fantastic go-to guide for all information. Yeah, absolutely, all proper academic writing
requires
sources and the citations are always easily laid out for the reader.

One and the same, one and the same. Who knew that a dead horror director would come back to life just to invent Wikipedia? This is what's great about the Horror Board. Our information is never censored. That's why we are "in the know" even more than those conspiracy theory retards.

Yes that's what I say- it's from the first generation of internets memes, from the era of TL:DR, Cool Story Bro, and such.
I did see
I Am Not A Serial Killer
. I loved the premise, good idea, good acting, but for me the last third of the film got a little silly. I felt let down, so I only gave it a 6/10 on my personalized "Dink Meter."
