Their slang

Technically, the aliens are right…

At our simplest level of abstraction we are donut shaped (torus, more accurately), and we consist mostly of water (between 70–80%).

That would make us an excellent low-fat snack to those from beyond.

I’m stuffing myself with peanuts now, just in case they have an allergy.

    lol, well done. I like to think of myself as a meaty donut, but I fear that you are right.
    I wonder if they will appreciate if I eat alot of salt?

        That’s sort of like a bagel, right…?

          mmmmmmmmmmmm tasty human bagel.
          So does that mean that if one was to eat alot of cheese flavouring they would then be like a Cheezel?

    Don’t worry: they’ll only eat the pretty ones. So pretty people: ugly up or prepare to die.

      Perhaps roll around on the floor, pick up some dust and dirt and look generally unhygeinically prepared.

      Apparently I look damn sexy when I am filthy from work, so it is lose/lose for me.
      It would be like a rugged version of beef jerky

    The Alien Word reminds me, in a rather odd and vivid way, that when we were in high school my older brother taught himself a fair chunk of Klingon. (This was after he’d reached passing fluency with Tolkien’s Elvish.)

      It has that same jaggedy look that Klingon script has!

      I’d like to learn Klingon someday. I’d also like to learn most other languages, but Klingon would be more impressive.

    I feel like rolling in powdered sugar.

      Is that related to this post, or just a general fancy for confectionery imitation?

        YOU MUST NOT IMITATE CONFECTIONERIES! IT CAN BE DANGEROUS!

        Seriously, next you’ll be poking a big hole in yourself and jumping into a big vat of hot grease.

          Sounds like something that could be fun.
          Any volunteers?

    2. Ben Identicon Icon Ben on 20.01.2008 at 02:37 (Reply)

      I can help with that……..

    I just knew that living in a house that makes a dumpster look pristine and eating all that junk food was a good idea. Now try explaining that to the neighbors and my family.
