You think Jimmie Johnson will win a sixth straight title? Would you likely a cup of coffee and we could discuss this and other issues, like the chance the Sox have this year and the college brackets…..

It would really depend on the species. There are 57 cataloged species here now and they all have a different reason for being here. But my questions have been answered so I wouldn’t ask a new one.

I would ask them if they have feelings.

I love how so many people are using this opportunity of a single question to, you know, shoot the “shit.” ;-)

Do you speak English? What are your intensions?

SavoirFaire's avatar

@filmfann I don’t know. I’ve always suspected there was something fundamentally wrong with the universe…

What was the power source you used to propel your ship and did you get to relativistic velocities?

I shall try to answer your questions.
“Want some homemade bread?” – I would love to, but I am allergic to carbohydrates.
“With all of the other places you could’ve gone, why did you come here?” – It’s an assignment.
“How the hell did you get here?!” – Interspatial flexure.
“Are you a member of a union?” Of course.
“Do you believe in god/s?” Of course not.
“What’s your place like?” Compared to earth, it is Utopia.
“What do you get if you multiply six by nine?” Which base?
“How long did it take your people to get over religion?” – We never had religion.
“Can you take me back with you?” – Our zoos are full, sorry.
“Has your species had sex within the dense atmosphere of uranus? I gots to know!” – UrAnus is one of the most popular tourist attractions in your solar system.
“Do aliens die?” – We transfer our minds into new clone bodies, that makes us essentially immortal.
“How long have we got?” – That depends on the speed of our bureaucracy. 30 years, tops.
“How long did it take you to get here?” – 5 hours
“You think Jimmie Johnson will win a sixth straight title? Would you likely a cup of coffee and we could discuss this and other issues, like the chance the Sox have this year and the college brackets…..” – You ask too many questions. We shall take care of you later.
“I would ask them if they have feelings.” – More than humans ever could.
“What do you know?” – We know all the secrets of the universe. We shall not name them.
“What’s that book under your arm about, To Serve Man?” – A sociological study about the role of women in contemporary human society.
“Does this skirt make my butt look big?” – Compared to more extreme cases of your species, no.
“Do you speak English? What are your intensions?” Yes, do you? To prepare a full scale invasion.
“What was the power source you used to propel your ship and did you get to relativistic velocities?” – We use zero point energy to power interdimensional openings to parallel universes, from which we draw matter and antimatter respectively, which we use to power our vessels. We do not accelerate to relativistic velocities. We open artificial interspatial flexures. Humans know this phenomenon as worm holes.

I hope I answered your questions adequately.

@ragingloli =) You did. 100,000Lurve to you

Rarebear's avatar

Rags wins the game.

Summum's avatar

I Guess I could try that.

Why are you here? We are watching you and waiting for your planet to evolve and we want to help with what is needed. Also we need to be here to keep a couple of the other species from taking the planet.

How did you get here? We are multi dimensional and distance is not a factor for us. We can travel what you would call light years with just a thought process.

How long have you been here? We brought your species here after combining your DNA with some from this planet so that your bodies would be better accustomed to this environment.

Why did you do all this? This is how it is done and how it has always been done for progression of life and all its experiences.

Is there a God? There are many that mortals call God’s but they are just higher beings that want to help your species become what you can become. We all share in life and its vibrations.

bows to @ragingloli for an awesome response

Have you been here before, and if not, may I show you around?

Dr_Dredd's avatar

@ragingloli You wouldn’t happen to have any spare ZPM’s hanging around, would you?

I would ask them about the strangest/most amazing thing they have seen in their travels.

Winters's avatar

Do you believe in a higher power or are we the oddballs here?

ilana's avatar

Hey, ...did I see you on the set of Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind?

ragingloli's avatar

@Pied_Pfeffer I have been here for aeons. No need to show me around.
@Dr_Dredd The strangest thing I have EVER seen was one earth creature, that could move around, even climb up trees,but had NO LEGS!!
@Winters Define higher powers. If you mean your concept of “gods”, no.
@ilana No, but you saw me when you were laying on my operating table in my spaceship.

Scooby's avatar

So can I come with you or not?? You surely can’t be thinking of staying here for pity’s sake………. :-/

Summum's avatar

I would ask when we leave how long will it be before we get to come back and rebuild?
