Once more, back when normal people were exposed to anything fantastical it was a version of heaven, paradise, nirvana, hell, damnation etc. told by a fella who got some influence, control, prestige out’ve the status quo. Before the advent of education, mass literacy ALL the sightings were belief or religion based, harbingers of doom, or omens.
Since people have been able to read, eclipses, comets etc., are known about and don’t cause hysteria anymore. After exposure to mass media, radio, fillums, etc., the experiences have been largely other-wordly.
It used to be a miracle now its an alien. Nothing to see here, move along.
Things moving in the air & you don’t know what they are? Legion. Aliens? None.
Of course they exist, but none of them have visited. The scale is too vast. Why would anybody with the ability come here, leave no concrete (concrete? Invented by aliens) proof then either fuck off having done fuck all or stay and fuck the local lasses but impart very little of their technology (apart from concrete and the clap)?
Its not like some **** on a raft accidentally bumping into a poxy island. Either it’s a very difficult task which they achieve and do basically fuck all when they get here, or its a piece-of-piss, cos they’re git advanced, but they drift in the atmosphere then fuck off without interacting except with either morons or top-secret gadgies. Or are they checking the waiting list for tickets at sids?
Or the other version is, they come all this time and space to probe some tart at the holiday inn, Paramus. What are they looking for? Chalfonts?
If its for research some **** wants to pull their funding and tell them to get a real job.
Lazy work-shy bastards.
