Human's think they're the best thing since sliced bread (and what's so great about sliced bread??)

But it took us 100, 000 yrs to figure out how to build a thing that would take us to a place that's a two day flight away, I mean the Moon. As Prof. Winston might say "Can you imagine such limited ingenuity?"

OK, the Moon guys were cleverer than most of us, but I mean come on, is that the best we have?? Look at those Aliens and how far their spaceships travel. Their Technical ingenuity is vastly superior to ours.

I don't want you to think that I have lost the plot, but those Aliens are chuckling away at us, I tell ya. And in a planetary war, we'd be screwed? OK, as my ex colleague told me, there are other ways to judge a living creature rather than technical ingenuity, but those things won't help us in a planetary war. :) :)

I have to laugh at Mr Asterix's response. So cutting you could slice steel with it. :)

Have you been watching Men In Black or CONTACT again? Just kidding. :)
Reminds of two lines from that movie, love Tommy Lee Jones. To paraphrase both.
"A person is smart, People are dumb, stupid, frighten animals and you know it."
"Human language is view as an infectious disease in some galaxies. Kinda makes you proud doesn't it?"

Because [whispers] " if they build it, they will come."


Slightly joking about with this thread

Who says Aliens are looking for an interplanetary war? If Roswell is true, and say other life forms have been visiting us for fifty some odd years, why haven't they started one yet? Maybe it's because they're more civilized than us. Think about that Jack!!!

"Humans are crap, well for the most part"

Us cats, the true inheritors of the Earth, have always thought this. The Egyptians got it right when they made us into gods, but since then it's gone downhill for the human race.

No, superior intellect. We'll infect all the dogs and feed them to the aliens. Afterall, dogs are only cats without a university education.

i would not mind being ruled by cats, instead of the planet of the apes lets have the planet of the cats where they rule over the humans, that would be so cool

I have not trusted any aliens since reading The Martian Chronicles by Ray Bradbury. Just look at how they keep breaking those thingys we've been sending over to their planet to explore. Not very nice if you ask me. :)

You're maybe right or watched the movie "Cat's Eye" too many times. But good defenses. :)
