ITP: Two Options

Feb 12, 2011 22:22

[It's getting to be rather late in the evening. ZEX is fiddling around with a really cool alien gadget, just outside and around the corner from the Mess Hall. It's a tiny projector that shows a big blue translucent sphere, upon which there are thousands of tiny dots of two different colors: green and red. He is moving the green dots my pointing and ( Read more... )

Uh. I dunno were you're getting this stuff, but they totally wear clothes.

Mars Attacks!, District 9, E.T., and the beings in Signs do not.

You know what the fiction part stands for when it comes to science fiction, right?

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 06:44:12 UTC

Well, yes, silly. I also know that suspension of disbelief has limits.

reach_within February 13 2011, 06:46:35 UTC

I promise that crappy writing and special effects isn't restricted to aliens only.

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 06:48:03 UTC

Oh, yes, I have seen romantic comedies as well.

reach_within February 13 2011, 06:52:37 UTC

See? There you go.

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 06:55:58 UTC

I shall attempt to keep things in perspective. It is simply difficult when it can be so personal...

reach_within February 13 2011, 07:11:04 UTC

I dunno. I mean, it's cheesy popcorn cinema with little to no actual working science. An actual invasion movie probably wouldn't be too much fun.

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 07:14:48 UTC

Honestly, if any race were stupid enough to invade Earth, it should end just fine for the human race. Logically speaking.

reach_within February 13 2011, 07:16:28 UTC

There's been a few. We did okay.

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 07:21:01 UTC

Ah.

I am glad for you, and apologize if I have seemed callus.

reach_within February 13 2011, 07:23:37 UTC

Hey, no apology necessary. A lot of people here haven't even made first contact. It's honestly kinda weird.

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 07:26:50 UTC

Weird in what way, from your perspective?

reach_within February 13 2011, 07:35:27 UTC

Well, it's not like they're everywhere or anything, but we've definitely got aliens living on Earth back home. From a few different places. And then there's that whole... other kinda thing. So I guess it's weird for me to think of that not being normal. Or even just to think of not being aware of what's out there.

takeme2urpants February 13 2011, 07:41:45 UTC

The belief that space is infinite and humans the only inhabitants of said space? It is a bit baffling, yes. I believe I understand.
