They are the lowest kind of scum. The mental power of an average MIT co-op student does not register on any test designed for any being more complicated than a fern. The Andromedans are particularly slow. Their ability to teleport evolved from an inability to walk very far without stopping to ask "is this right?" It is said, around here, that an Andromedan cannot teleport and chew gum at the same time. They often flunk Intro to Breathing (course #6.170 here at the 'tute). Net.bizarre? That was not created by space aliens at all, but rather by a group of dedicated AMERICAN MIT students working in the mentally superior UROP program in order to lure unsuspecting communists, liberals, democrats, homosexuals, and any other synonomous lifeforms into spilling their insidious anti-AMERICAN guts onto the net. That way they could easily be located by flag-waving NSA agents for easy disposal. Do you believe that? If you do then you have already been targeted!

He spends his time teleporting aroung the > building and reading our minds... Saw this on net.astro last year; it seems appropriate to repost it in light of panda!dpn's situation. I think it's from the Enquirer or some such worthy tabloid: Your Co-worker Could Be a Space Alien, Say Experts ... Here's How You Can Tell By Michael Cassels Many Americans work side by side with space aliens who look human -- but you can spot these visitors by looking for certain tip-offs, say experts. They listed 10 signs to watch for: 1. Odd or mismatched clothes. ``Often space aliens don't fully understand the different styles, so they wear combinations that are in bad taste, such as checked pants with a striped shirt or a tuxedo jacket with blue jeans or sneakers,'' noted Brad Steiger, a renowned UFO investigator and author. 2. Strange diet or unusual eating habits. Space aliens might eat French fries with a spoon or gobble down large amounts of pills, the experts say. 3. Bizarre sense of humor. Space aliens who don't understand earthly humor may laugh during a company training film or tell jokes that no one understands, said Steiger. 4. Takes frequent sick days. A space alien might need extra time off to ``rejuvenate its energy,'' said Dr. Thomas Easton, a theoretical biologist and futurist. 5. Keeps a written or tape-recorded diary. ``Aliens are constantly gathering information,'' said Steiger. 6. Misuses everyday items. ``A space alien may use correction fluid to paint its nails,'' said Steiger. 7. Constant questioning about customs of co-workers. Space aliens who are trying to learn about earth culture might ask questions that seem stupid, Easton said. ``For example, a co-worker may ask why so many Americans picnic on the Fourth of July,'' noted Steiger. 8. Secretive about personal life-style and home. ``An alien won't discuss details or talk about what it does at night or on weekends,'' said Steiger. 9. Frequently talks to himself. ``A space alien may not be used to speaking the way we do, so an alien may practice speaking,'' Steiger noted. 10. Displays a change of mood or physical reaction when near certain high-tech hardware. ``An alien may experience a mood change when a microwave oven is turned on,'' said Steiger. The experts pointed out that a co-worker would have to display most if not all of these traits before you can positively identify him as a space alien. -- Rt. Rev.
