America would scoop that alien up and have him locked in a 5 hr Joe rorgan podcast within an hour of setting foot om earth.
Rogan hits blunt “A buddy of mine saw you naked in the shower during a DMT trip”
Jamie(?), pull that up
Tell them to run. They’re safer out there than here.
If they made it all the way here they’d definitely kick our asses by themselves and they’d definitely know that we are, as a group, a planetary trailer-park. Alien who let us pull one over on them would have to be astronomically(heh) stupid.
I mean, yes but also - think about the sheer marvels of mechanical, electrical, and software engineering carefully packed into an average modern car… and now think about your average driver
I was thinking about how to say just that, but unless the aliens were at “tourist” level with interstellar travel I doubt they’d be doing first contact with such little planning.
There’s a funny 90s film I saw once on TV about some US midwestern family driving through space in their car, but have to make a pit stop (crash landing?) on Earth. They’re immediately seized by the US government who grill and torture the dad on how their vehicle works, and the dad’s like “well there’s a clutch… and you got the gas pedal…”
I really wish I could find that film again, it had stoner comedy vibes
Edit: It might be Mom and Dad Save the World (1992) though I can’t find the scene where they ask the dad how the car / space ship works
(Your point being the alien drivers. Just in case anyone needed that.)
Alien: thank wha… 😬 umm we’ll come back later.
“DOG, I said thank dog!..if you are leaving then, please, take me with you. PLEASE. It’s such a fucking shit show here.
I…I will let you probe me. Please don’t leave me here!”
