Why are Aliens so Lame?

For the A-Z Blog challenge, I will be addressing some of life's big questions.
Perhaps together we can find the answers to many heretofore unsolvable mysteries.

is for Extra Terrestrials 

Why are aliens always so weird looking? If they are supposed to be these highly evolved, superior beings, why are they so ugly?




And why do they all look the same? In each species of alien, they all seem identical. Maybe because they can tell each other apart by ESP?

You'd think if their minds are so advanced, they wouldn't need to abduct and probe to learn about us, they could just glean all the information they wanted telepathically.

I seriously question if aliens are really all that advanced. I think we've just gotten ourselves all worked up over nothing.


How is this:


superior to this:







? I'm just asking...


Tomorrow's Question:
Outfits of the future.

  1. For all we know, those might count as pin ups for their species. Though I imagine that the problems start when people do start finding the aliens attractive.

    1. Attractive Aliens? Sounds like a YA book. Girl falls in love with a handsome guy...guy turns out to be an alien.

  2. Excellent question lol! I think Stu is right, though. Those could be alien pin-ups (though if that is the case, I'd hate to see what ordinary aliens look like!)

  4. Seriously ... maybe those last three pictures are of the real aliens trying to influence and win us over before invading and eating our brains.

    haha

    1. Have you written any creepy alien stories?

    2. I did one a couple of months ago called spores and death that when I started it, it was supposed to be an alien story. I changed it to an experiment that went wrong though haha. Everytime I come up with an idea for an alien story I find that it has already been done, so I try to stay away from them hahaha

  6. I wouldn't want to be breathing the oxygen on whatever planet they come from if this is the result. And what are they eating? I'm guessing human for the guy on the right. *shudders*

    1. They probably eat something boring, like cabbage.

  8. Not to date myself but this reminds me of the Arsenio Hall show when he would say "Things that make you go hmmmmmm..." :)

  9. Welll... it certainly isn't. However, in defense of the xenomorph from Alien, Aliens, and other movies, it is a genius in its design and comes from the mad imagination of world-renowned artist and crazy person, H.R. Giger. Giger is unlike anyone I have ever read about. But you are so right...the guys/hunks you pictured are ones I'd take any day.

  14. Since I'm just a Bear, I really don't understand extraterrestrial aliens. Are they like people who come into the bush who should't be there?
