All About UFO's

[sonci99]

If they really do exist, and they are so advanced, why they have to use spaceships or planes, like primitive humans. At least something advanced can use energy or be energy, travel by thought etc.
An advanced predator is not a blue humanoid in space suit, but more probably some kind of virus installed in our brains.

I know its boring. But can i remember you that aliens are absolutly not needet to not care about humans?

It's more fun to get excited about aliens, though. Evidently the anal probing is better than it sounds.

After one ride in a ufo Mr.T enjoys helicopters?

Aliens that would do that would indeed be a problem, we would probably need to deploy Brad Pitt and Tom Cruse to deal with them. And to a lesser extent Matt Damon.

Perhaps the news is a bit slow coming to England, but those actors (and the rest of the SAG/AFTRA) are on strike.
What are we going to do?
Ask the aliens to delay the grand-entrance since the Hollywood writers' scripts cannot be written while on strike.
Will our guest aliens understand that they cannot violate our Labor laws and they must obey/honor the union strike lines?

They must be as smart dumb as we are?

A recent image taken by the James Webb Space Telescope shows what appears to be a “question mark” in deep space.

Who needs writers? Seems to me it's writing itself...

Maybe long ago, in a galaxy far away, The Riddler instead of Batman is the hero, and so the symbol their Commissioner Gordon projects into the night sky is a question mark?

Imagine the headlines when it espies a "42" out there near the beginning.

How convenient that the numbers - from such a nationwide poll - total to exactly100%.
They forgot the 4th category (Ich gebe keinen fick) for people like me!

At least the objectively correct response - "don't know" - is getting more popular.

The numbers of any poll are always 100%, even if they interview only 2 people.

Rounding error...


In (some) seriousness - and all y'all know this: percentages can be misleading. Cf. the old (early 2000s!) saying (from Shift Happens):

If you're one in a million in China [or India]... there are a thousand others just like you.

Normalization is always risky, of course: a small numerator and a large denominator can give exactly the same (small) ratio as a very large numerator and a really, truly humongous denominator.

Averages can similarly distort one's perception of reality, as y'all know. I like to tell my students that we once had a cat (Zappa) who was grey on the average.

Or theirs.

I suspect you're right, though. It's the best way to cover up stuff that the military (whoever's military -- not necessarily ours) doesn't want folks to know about, but can't exactly hide.

Occam's Razor and all that.

I know of a number of audio cable companies and some hifi hardware companies that employ physics defiling capabilities.

You remind me of one of my professors who used to like to say, like a man with his head in an oven and feet in an icebox, on the average he was comfortable.
