Lighthearted but obviously the US congress are preparing to reveal the existence of Aliens.
What would be the first thing you would do?

Nothing- they have clearly existed for a long time and have done no harm. They are probably curious about us just like we are them.

The only possible reason they can have for turning up now.
They’re Swifties.

Get there first with the toilet roll rather than leaving it too late this time and having a very close call on running out

Middleagedmeangirls · 27/07/2023 14:34

Make a Negroni. Watch Real Housewives. Continue to live the dream.

People find it easy to believe 'aliens' exist but can't fathom a God existing

I'd say the opposite is true. Far more people in this world are religious than believe in aliens.

If you really think about it, it is much more logical that aliens exist rather than a god/gods - a earthbound human concept

JerkintheMerkin · 27/07/2023 13:11

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I like your thinking.

Maybe better to go on a pub crawl? 😄

Learnt to speak fluent rabbit 🐰

The alien`s landed and realised the most intelligent beings on earth were rabbits.

I thought mice were the most intelligent beings with dolphins a close second?

Get the good biscuits in?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

WiddlinDiddlin · 27/07/2023 15:40

Get in the snacks.

What I would NOT do... is make my way to the tallest building, and get on the roof with a banner welcoming our alien visitors... That, films tell me, is not the smart move.

A fort made of toilet rolls and two pairs of pants would resist any alien blast.

Look out the window.

alfagirl73 · 27/07/2023 17:47

I'd ask for a lift to their planet - has to be better than this shit show!

thecatsthecats · 27/07/2023 17:52

Sigh with relief and give them a hitlist of world leaders to eat.

In the words of Eric Idle:

Pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, cause there's bugger all down here on earth!

AllOfThemWitches · 27/07/2023 17:54

Ask if they can abduct my kids.

Whatwouldscullydo · 27/07/2023 17:57

Call murder and scully of course !

Then hope they don't find my posters and x file box set offensive

Oh and ask of they could make me " hot" in return for answering any questions they may have about earth.

Cattenberg · 27/07/2023 18:04

Thanks to Jeremy Beadle, a lady in Dorset was once surprised by an alien in her garden. Her reaction was to ask the alien if he/she wanted a cup of tea, so I imagine that’s how most of us would instinctively react.

BigMandsTattooPortfolio · 27/07/2023 18:04

I sometimes wonder if the Earth is actually the subject of a pan-galactic TV reality show. I can imagine a bunch of more evolved beings watching the show and having a good old laugh at our idiocy.

SoShallINever · 27/07/2023 18:12

I met one once, he said "you can call me Al"

BettySundaes · 27/07/2023 18:25

For all those who will be washing your knickers, remember aliens live underpants.

On a side note is 'V' available still anywhere I'd love to watch a rerun.

xyz111 · 27/07/2023 18:38

I would 💩. I think it stems from childhood when my dad traumatised me with Jeff Wayne's War of the worlds 🙈

PTSDBarbiegirl · 27/07/2023 18:42

"Is that an EV you're riding in?"

FrivolousTreeDuck · 27/07/2023 18:42

Cross my fingers that they were coming to take me back home after nearly 50 years on this awful 'Earth' planet.

Oddsockday · 27/07/2023 18:47

OK so I've wasted an entire day off and I've been down a lot of rabbit holes....
I've just discovered a documentary about shape shifters 😵😱and😱 the black eyed children.
I'm terrifying myself lol

What do lizards eat, I'll have to get some in if they want to come for dinner?

Live rodents? That's what was on the menu in "V"...

Just send the round the back of a fast food restaurant then. Hang out by the bins. Best night out ever.
