If a tree crashed into you

Pbbth, I’m getting the feeling this isn’t your first tree attack.

I’d call Durkon Thundershield for back-up.

Oh, c’mon. NO ONE is going to call the cops and get them out to the scene right away? You know, they’ve got forensics teams that can determine you weren’t drunk/high and that you hit something in the middle of the road! Maybe they’d even be able to match the paint chips from your totaled vehicle to the damage on the bastard tree!

Where are Mulder and Scully when you need them?

If you lied about it but no one was in the room at the time, would you have made a sound?

Bingo. Bastard tree.

Yes, you would hear your self.

IMO this solution only works if you have a Mulder and Scully type of investigative team that works quickly, efficiently, and is inclined to believe you when you say something supernatural happened on that road. Otherwise this is an 8-10 week investigation that may end up going nowhere at all while that bastard tree is attacking other innocent people or, og forbid, determined to destroy you specifically and following you around.

Scully NEVER believes Mulder until she sees it for herself and then always tries to disprove it even after seeing it.

I have to ask,

If a tree falls on you, crushes your skull and no one else is around. Does it make a sound? :wink:

There’s no one around to hear it fall. :wink:

Or is writing the next “Worse Case Scenario” handbook - if it has “car is ambushed by tree” as an entry, we’ll know!

Being a semi-druidic atheist, I’ll be checking out Treebeard. If he’ll talk to me, I’ll tell him I reckon the orcs are on the march, and he oughta do something useful. Meanwhile, I got to go chunk my high school graduation ring in a volcano, just to be safe…

Hmmm, Scratches head…

Of course now all you would find would be this thread…and you’ve already joined this community of wackjobs.

A tree with a vendetta. I like it. Very Hollywood. What’s the tree’s motivation?

I remember this story from a few years ago.

Poor woman takes her dog out for a walk and gets killed.

You already have.

And I understand that their having a discussion on this very topic right now.

Why, in the old days that’d be material for Ripley’s Be-leaf It or Not!

I’d wonder if I looked like sarumon that day.

“There is no curse in elvish, entish, or the tongues of men for this treachery!”

I’d sic the copse on it.

With a story like that, I think I’d be pretty poplar.
