Have you ever got attacked by a bear? · 2:52pm Jun 11th, 2012
I have. And it was actually yesterday.
Here's what happened: While my parent let out the dogs to let them go outside, they didnt notice a bear eating out our bird feeder. It was a black bear MOTHER, and it wanted to feed her kids or whatever. We knew that because the cubs were in the bushes in our yard.
When the dogs started growling and barking, my parent looked and saw it, and didnt get the dogs inside, leaving them to get ripped apart by the bear.
I was upstairs, and heard them shouting, trying to get the dogs to get back inside, but didnt go out to get them, for obvious reasons.
I ran downstairs and saw the bear, and the dogs trying to chase it off.
Now here's the dogs that were outside: One miniature Pincer, and a scottish terrier. The bear was as big as me, ok? About maybe a half a foot taller. These dogs would've looked like running Twinkies to this thing.
And guess what I did?
I ran outside to grab the dogs.
The black bear must've looked at me goin' "What the hell is wrong with this kid, I'm bigger than he is! Oh well, a giant steak might as well have been thrown on my plate tonight."
So when I grabbed my min pin, who was still trying to act tough, the bear was literally not even a few feet from me, on its hind legs, trying to scare the shit outta me.
Which it did.
And Might I add, this was in the middle of our yard. there was nothing stopping her from running at me, and making a meal outta me and the dog who was too stupid to go inside, like the terrier did.
I was pretty sure I was gonna die, just for trying to save a dog. When my Black Labrador, Gypsy, actually forced her way outside, ran up to the damn thing, and actually...SCARED it.
I dont know what happened, but the bear actually stayed away long enough for me to bolt inside, all the while scaring it back into the woods, and ran back inside. I was scared stiff. Still am, man. That damn bear was gonna kill me, and just because I wanted to save a dog.
I was brave, but not as brave as my best friend over here, which right now, is sleeping with her head on my lap. I'm glad to have found her that fateful day when we first met. She's a brave hero, and I owe her my life. I guess that makes us even, huh?
If you're reading this, thanks for looking. This only goes to show me, that Gypsy here is grateful for being my first ever friend in the world, and she'd take on a bear in my defense.
It's funny, because she reminds me of...well, me. I'd do the same for any of my family and friends. that's why I disregarded the danger to chase after my dog: Because he's family.
I think Gypsy here deserves something special, like a few steaks, don't you?
I'm glad you're not hurt though.
168559 I'm just glad I'm not dead. It's all thanks to Gypsy, man. She's the real hero here. I cant thank her enough with anything for how grateful I am.
HOLY S***!!!!!!!! I'M GLAD NOONE WAS HURT!!!!!!
168563 Same here, I dont know what I would do if the bear actually hurt Gypsy. I would've actually ran up to the thing and hit it with anything blunt.
Nobody hurts my dog.
You're more man than me, that's for sure. You've got an awesome friend in Gypsy, too.
168572 She is seriously the greatest friend I'll ever have, if she's going to jump in a bear's way just for me to get back.
I wish I knew what got into her to save me from this thing. She could've let me die.
But she didnt.
I'm gonna buy her the best Steak I can just for her saving my sorry ass. She deserves that and more.
I might've been brave, but not as brave as her.

Badass of the Year Award goes to Gypsy!
168579 Hurrah!
And now to find her something delicious. I need to give her SOMETHING...
168582
You're a pretty sweet guy.
Give her your hand. She saved the rest of you, so she deserves a piece!
168588 Gypsy! Here girl! Take the hand!
*Chomp*
Well, I got my other hand.
*Chomp*
Aww....

Daymn son. I can't even imagine how freaked out I would be. My dad was backpacking in Alaska when he got attacked by a grizzly some years ago. Me? I've haven't even seen one on my trips, but I guess it's a matter of time what with how much I hike.
168595 You've NO idea how freaked I was for suddenly realizing that I was in front of a bear, man.
Thank god you havent gotten to see one, let alone in front of it. I tell you, I've been close to death before, but THIS.
This is worse then when my step dad tried to run my over when he got drunk.
Damn, bear attack. That would've scared the shit out of me. Glad you and your dogs aren't hurt.
A similar story like this actually happened to me, except living in Florida, it was a huge crocodile in my pool. My parents didn't even notice it because it was at night, and they just realized they let my dog out. Low and behold there was my dog, a tiny foxhound, next to monster sized crocodile. All he did was lay down next to the crocodile and fell asleep. I kid you not, my small tiny dog who's scared of frisbees, falls asleep next to this reptile behemoth. And the crocodile did nothing the entire time, didn't even notice my dog sleeping right next to it. We called animal control and they managed to save my dog and get rid of the crocodile, but from that day onward, I have to live with the shame that my dog has bigger balls than me, even though we got his removed.
168621 HO JESUS.
I dont know which is worse now...

Oh dear god it got him too.
Listen everyone, I'm super cerial about this manbearpig attack.
Run for your lives!
Well, good to hear that you and Gypsy are fine.
168752 Oh man same here. I went and got a big steak for m' dog.
All my praise to Gypsy, i seriously mean it. You both were really lucky indeed!
Anyway, here in Spain we dont usually have to deal with that kind of things. The most interesting thing i've seen around here is a wild boar. Nothing compared to a bear, but it can be scary if you just step in front of it!
168993 Oof. Man, lucky you! I'd rather find a boar than a live BEAR. :<
I got attacked by a mountain lion... that was fun. Wild animal attacks in general I find fun.
"Have you ever been attacked by a bear?"
I have, once.
Except then I realized it wasn't a bear, it was a really hairy hobo.
And then I realized he wasn't attacking me, he was playing music for money.
And then I realized his attention wasn't directed towards me, it was directed towards some guy in a suit.
And then I realized this was all on TV.
... I may be losing my grip on reality

But really, that is an incredible story. It seems like everyone's out having adventures these days.
171099 I know, right? Oh, it would've been great to have the bear wear yellow pants, and go onna adventurez.

You're on some kind of mission to make me bust out old games from my childhood, aren't you?
Who sent you? What is your objective? Tell me!
171119 OBJECTIVE:
1) MAKE THE WORLD REGRET EVER LEAVING CLASSIC GAMING ON THEIR SHELVES.
2) MAKE WORLD PICK UP CLASSIC GAMES, FORGETTING ABOUT NEXT GEN GAMES.
3) ERASE MEMORY OF MOST FIRST PERSON SHOOTERS, SUCH AS HALO, AND COD. TF2, COUNTER STRIKE, AND HALF-LIFE IS EXCEPTION TO GOAL.
4) MAKE YOU FEEL OOOOOOOLD.
171138
MISSION UPDATE:
1) CLASSIC GAMING IS A MISGUIDED TERM. INDEPENDENT DEVELOPERS (such as the awesome Team Shadowbolt! *plug*) OFTEN ADHERE TO "CLASSIC" GAMING PRACTICES
2) WHAT NEXT GEN GAMES?
3) HALO: COMBAT EVOLVED UNDER INVESTIGATION REGARDING INHERIT INFERIORITY. NOSTALGIC VALUE FOUND: MISSION PARAMETERS ALTERED
4) ... MISSION ACCLOMPLISHED

Nah, but I was misleading. Basically, it;'s to take the games of old, and make you remember them. OLD games. Games we grew up with!
