Oxford dictionary definition:
A large hairy creature resembling a human or bear, said to live in the highest part of the Himalayas.

Origin
1930s: apparently from a term in Sherpa (a local language) that is related to Tibetan gya ‘rocky place’ + dred ‘yellow bear, hyena’.

Yeti are definitely real. They've been filmed by the BBC on numerous occasions. I think the program was Doctor Who.

So if a new species of mamil is discovered

But they are normally described as large and furry, not fat and lycra clad.

Yeah just noticed that autocorrect.

Maybe check the history of the Yeti stories rather than the OED version.

I reckon it’s folk stories derived from an actual creature.

Windows are a hoax, they are really mirrors back into a matrix.

On that bombshell...did you know that your device-screen + internet browser is also a code-breaking interface to a backed-up version of your true self? How do you know when you've found your true-self? When you view your social media profile, then realise that you don't recognise 'you' in your own selfie, and then you look out of the 'window' and it looks different. And so you smash your interface. And then The End. Or the beginning. Or just some splintered glass. You decide. Or do you? Even the conspiracy is a conspiracy.

I like cake. Nurse! ...
