Why did you let us fvck the world over in the last few hundred years? We were out of the barbarian stage for a long time...then here we are again.

Very nice.

I don't know what is scarier, the fact that I appreciate this answer, or the fact that I'm reading this thread and seriously trying to decide on a single question in preparation for the alien to come visit me.

Alien: What happens when a fruitfly dies? How about when an amoeba dies? Or bacteria? You don't think they have souls go to hell and heaven too? Why not? They are alive aren't they?

What's the difference between you and an amoeba? I'll tell you one difference. YOU have an overactive imagination that borders on insanity. When you rid yourself of your insane ways, then maybe you will be one inch closer in the light year away you are to be able to grasp any meaning out of any explainations anyone of the smart people even on earth could explain to you much less an alien.

Why did you chose Ibanez over Fender or Gibson? Will you ever put lyrics to any of your songs?

Pop out a recorder and ask:

Please explain, in full detail, how your technology and propulsion systems work?

Close but I'd rather ask him for the space ship :p Plus then without his ship he'd be stuck so he'd have to hang around while I buged the crap out of him with more questions..

What if he said no...?

"What's with the eye?"

What, no Futurama fans on this morning?

I'd ask how long it took them to get past their barbaric stage. And how many times they almost wiped out their home planet in the process.
