What would you do if a space alien landed in your bathtub at 4 AM?

[DavidBrown]

A loud thunk startles you awake at 4 AM in the morning. You run out and see what the commotion is and find an alien life form has landed or beamed into your bathroom. What do you do?

 

[Jabiru96]

I would greet it Scary Movie 3 style!

Definitely the go back to bed option. The merman I keep in the bathtub would deal it with for me, so all evidence would be gone by morning.

 

[Jarkari]

i voted the first one. because before i opened the thread to read the options my first thought was offer him a kit kat.

 

[karoocheetah]

ooo if I was a space alien I'd be tempted by a kit kat :O)

 

[DavidBrown]

I'm impressed that nobody has shot the alien so far, but then I'm not sure that any of my fellow Americans have replied to this poll yet

Other. Take lots of pictures! Then promote peace/snacking etc, which maintaining helpful level of distrust just in case.

This does very much depend on what sort of alien we are talking of. The appropriate reaction to a Haggunenon (run away - terribly fast) is very different to, say, a Dentrassi (have him cook you dinner, and, if possible, mix a cocktail).

Serious nerd alert^^.

I would be wary of offering chocolate as it might bad for them - look what it does to dogs!
I voted other - panic

 

[AnaheimZoo]

I voted other: I would introduce it to my pet Gazoocias flintstoneicus. Then, I would send it to tell DavidBrown that he's gone mad.

I have three comments:

1 - Don't Panic!

2 - at which point did you not consider me a serious nerd??

3 - in order to detect my nerdishness, it seems likely that you possess at least equal nerdishness. Therefore, you are also a serious nerd. QED.

*vanishes in a puff of logic*

 

[Pygathrix]

The alert was serious, not the nerd

 

[Maguari]

Either is fair comment!

Anyway, tonight I am safe from aliens as there is no bath tub, only a shower, in my hotel room here in Berlin

 

[nanoboy]

Oh boy. DavidBrown has lost it.... again...

I think that I would vote "other" because I would want my/our own reality show. It would be a cross between "American Dad" (it's a cartoon) and "The Kardashians".

The Cardassians, then?

Oh, you devil.

*tries not to think of peccaries*

 

[zoogiraffe]

Oh, you devil.

To late I already have,now I'm off to cry!

 

[Pygathrix]

Oh I'm not going to the zoo(s)

 

[Maguari]

Oh I'm not going to the zoo(s)

A likely story.

 

[Pygathrix]

An alien hacked into my zoochat account - of course I'm zooing it large (although not as large as you two often do), Berlin zoo tomorrow, Leipzig day after, and then some sort of tedious work related "meeting" for a couple of days after that. Nine hours in Tierpark today have left me weak, three types of takin, three Chaco species, ringtail rock wallaby,tons of ungulates and carnivores, etc etc etc. Peccaries being rather reticent, the nanomaras were rather more enchanting. Finally getting to see a Baird's tapir tomorrow after all these years of being a tapir fan
