the message we send should read: "All your base are belong to us"

if extraterrestrials called us, it was definitely a wrong number.

They translated the message. It says:

"Is your refrigerator running?"

we are the most entertaining reality show in the universe.

"GB2 ALPHA CENTAURI, NEWFAGS"

Honestly though, this is pretty exciting. I used to actively participate in SETI when I was younger.. not so much anymore.
I've always been intrigued by the Drake Equation and the possisbilty of ET life. I used to be huge into UFOlogy, I need to pick it up again.

Same here, but I almost hope it doesn't happen within my lifetime. I mean, I'm selfish so I want to see it happen (along with, at the very least, exploration of the Solar system, if not nearby stars), but you just know we'd fuck it up badly the way things are right now. Eh, Catch-22 - maybe it'll be like in Rendezvous With Rama, and humans finding other life makes us cut the crap and get our shit together.

Probably not, though.

First message to the stars:

So I met this girl who worked at starbucks, and I worked up the courage to ask her on a date after a couple of conversations at the register. She was a month older than me but I didn't really care, she was fun to be around. So we took a walk along the beach, and we kissed in the pale moonlight, a full moon, it was really romantic. We started really getting into it, and she slowly unzipped my jeans, she reaches inside and starts kissing her way down my chest, she finally gets all the way down, looks up at me with the most seductive eyes I've ever seen and says "No thanks, I had Reese's for breakfast" and I'm like "No way, you had candy for breakfast?" She replies, "Not candy! Reese's puffs cereal!" So she sliiiiides me a bowl. I crunch into it and WHAM! My mouth goes crazy! That smooth combo of peanut butter and chocolate-y taste attacking my taste buds! She zips my pants back up and says "And it's part of this complete breakfast!"


MOST EPIC COPYPASTA, EVAR.

Oh, I think we'll definitely discover something in our lifetime. It's a given. It sucks that we'll probably only see Man land on Mars in our lifetime; but as far as finding other intelligent life somewhere, I think something will happen soon. They're discovering solar systems all the time now, and really soon, they'll be able to find smaller planets like Earth, with relative distance from their star. Once we find that, it should be obvious there's some sort of carbon-based life form on that planet (given the fact that water exists.)

You fuckers should read Passport to the Cosmos by John E. Mack

great read, lots of abduction etc. experiences, a whoooooooole lotta research into the people's backgrounds.

I hope they take me sometime soon.

There's some really messed up theories about the Greys. I especially love the one about how they're "enslaved" by the Reptillian race in our Galaxy and are being forced to crossbreed with us to make a hybrid race. That's why they take human sperm and eggs during abductions. I think it's a hunk of crap if you ask me.
Then there's the one about the Nordic aliens and how we're supposedly descendants of them, which to me, sounds stupid and eliminates the possibilty of evolution.

"A mystery signal has been picked up by a giant radio-telescope in Puerto Rico."

All I can think of when I hear about a Puerto Rican telescope is a couple of beaners messing around with something like this:

I'm pretty sure it's that giant raido-telescope in the James Bond movie.

MOON NAZIS FTW

the Greys i believe are time travelers. they are short, grey, and have huge black eyes due to a dying sun, and they are coming back to find out where the fuck we went wrong.

it would be sick if 2 civilizations merged to become 1 imagine if we had possibly more tan twice the technology we have... and who cant wait for the alien pron?

I bet when they orgasm, they have massive diarrhea that comes out in the shapes of squid.

I do believe we will find "something" in the next 20 years. What that 'something" is, idk. I know what it's not. it's not my BFF jill.

its going to translate to "shave the white house, no more Bush"
