If an alien came in your room right now, what would you do?

Asked by QueenOfNowhere (1871points) June 18th, 2011

I would probably have an heart attack and die. Or just jump off the window. You?

Ask it to nip to the kitchen and put the kettle on. I fancy a cup of tea.

I’d say “Hello” while quietly sliding the safety to “F”.

Ask to see his “green” card.

Every alien immigrant must have a green card.

At first I would hold very still and observe.

After gaining reasonable assurance that I was not in danger, I would look for the trick. I would not believe my eyes and would assume there’s a logical terrestrial explanation, so I’d be curious what it is and how I was being fooled.

If, alien or human or human-controlled entity, it meant to kill me, it would probably be too late already, so what I did wouldn’t matter.

I’d say, “Oh, Xanton, you remembered our anniversary!”

I’d say, “Damned Earthling! It must have found a hole in one of my window screens”.
Then I’d get my people swatter and squish the extraterrestrial pest.

I would fist it in the “ass” with 2 thrusts, then 3 thrusts, then 5 thrusts, then 7 thrusts and then 11 thrusts. Not only would it know I’m intelligent, but it would know I have a sense of humor and where it stands with me on the butt-works.

I would tell my son to talk to it, and it would let everyone go, build it’s ship magically out of old cars and take off for home.

@Brian1946, I remember that episode of The Twilight Zone too.

Honestly, I’d probably shoot it.

No sense risking the integrity of my anal virginity.

Offer him a toke. If it was a ‘female’, I’d try to make sweet human love to her.

It depends on how I meet this alien. If the alien is sort of grotesque looking, then I may have to scream and run, and try to alert the rest of my family. But if the alien tells me it means no harm, then perhaps I will be shaky, yet intrigued. Eventually, I’d still have to run and alert my family.. I think… if I don’t pass out first…

If he was an alien from another country, say the U.K., and he looked like This I’d probably have palpitations and ask him to come on in : – P

Other than Juan the gardener…

Apparently my link didn’t work. Let’s try my favorite alien, from another country, again.

How’s This ?

I would have a heart attack, then a panic attack, then I would start asking questions.

Then I would ask the alien to take me with him/her/it back to the homeworld.

Earth is really boring.

Get out the old journal and write . . .

Dear Diary,

I thought that acid flashbacks were just an old wive’s tale. Turns out I was wrong. Too bad it doesn’t work this way with cocaine . . .

For the last time, I am not gonna kneel before Zod!

Let him know that bow ties are indeed cool…

As long as you won’t eat me, enslave me, or drill holes in my teeth, or stick needled in my eyes or privates; take me away from here.

jonsblond's avatar

I’d ask for a good pillow and blanket.

with all that intelligence, they must have the best for a good night’s rest

First, collect baseball bat. Then ask the “who are you, why are you here” questions. And then see where things went from there.
I would, at some point, try to get properly detailed info on how his ship worked.

Pay it no more attention than a passing fart!

rebbel's avatar

Tell her that she has really gorgeous almond shaped eyes.

Ron_C's avatar

I’d just say “Hi, Jesus, did you finish the lawn yet?”
