[Round 9]

Now why would aliens in spacecraft presumably much more advanced than ours fly millions of light years to get here then attempt to cruise around in a clandestine fashion at night with BIG BRIGHT FLASHY lights all over the ship? Really.

If aliens were here they’d either introduce themselves or you’d never even know of it. None of this “it was slowly moving over the treetops sneaking around with it’s big multicolored lights and all of a sudden this beam a come out and knocked my brother-in-law into the air near fifty feet.” foolishness.

Maybe they are just really arrogant...

LOL! Like the ETs in Close Encounters of the Third Kind. They can defy the laws of physics, implant obsessions in our brains, drop ships in deserts, cloak themselves in storm clouds......and yet they can't learn the English language. Instead, they greet us with a cheesy five-note "theme and variations" concert.

“If aliens were here they’d either introduce themselves or you’d never even know of it.”

Attributing anthropomorphic motives/goals to hypothetical aliens may not be realistic. Hell, extraterrestrial life would have gone down an entirely different evolutionary enviroment (even down to basic chemical structures, etc) and may not even perceive time in the way species on this planet do.

Whatever the case here, I don’t think ET’s will work in real life they way they do on Star Trek or other such stuff.

It's the alien equivalent to teens going out cowtipping.

[Quix]

I think quite a number of your assumptions are flawed.

Hey, even aliens like pimped out spacecraft with lots of bling.......

To vote for Obama.
Really.

"If aliens were here they’d either introduce themselves..."

Aliens --legal, illegal or extraterrestrial-- apparently understand something about humanity you missed.

"Hello Earthlings!"
>POW!<

...yea, foolishness.
