If it's white, try to lunge your head into the bear's mouth to make it quick.

Im so glad I'm not the only one that thought of that

Ursaring, Pangoro, and Beartic are all weak to Fighting. So, just make sure you've got your Lucario at hand and Calm Mind-ed up, and pummel them with Aura Sphere. That way, you can also keep your distance.

(Yes, I know Pangoro is a panda and not a black bear. But, uhm, uh... shut up!)

Strangely applies to American police, too

Edit:
upon reflection, this sounds like I think white cops are better. What I meant to say is that the white cops are just gonna shoot you so gg.

What do I do in event I encounter a sun bear?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

Ask it for head

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

My first instinct was "small, will probably run into the nearest tree at light speed" but I did some reading and they common thought without much science behind it is that sun bear are pretty fuckin aggressive and even tho they're small, they'd still probably fuck your shit up.

Lul, yes, indeed.

"The smallest bear" but still just a lewder wolverine.
And with a fancy necklace.

This the one the women chose?

Ask for a BJ.

Give it a tootsie pop and see how many licks it takes to get to the center

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 months ago

So racist.

Do you even know the whites are the least privileged?

/s (but also really sad)

I've actually heard that with black bears the best method is to ditch it in central park with a bicycle.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That only works if you have brain worms

But what if I was out falconing with friends, had a dinner at a super bougie steak house go late, and REALLY have to get to the airport? Surely THAT makes it less insane?

My sister lives in Alaska. The locals say that you can tell if you're in grizzly territory by checking any bear poop you find. If it contains bells and smell like bear spray, you know there are grizzlies nearby.

When I visited Alaska, they said you should always take the sights off your rifle. That way it doesn't hurt as much when the grizzly shoves it up your ass.
