More Brits believe in aliens than understand ESG: new polling
ESG may still be the corporate bon mot du jour but new polling of Brits suggest they've got more faith in ET than understanding of the term

Yeah, that's understandable because I have to explain it every single time (already explained it to my mother about 4 times now). Whereas believing in aliens is actually quite reasonable (just not that they are here and spend their time making crop circles and probing trailer trash).
I wish more people made that distinction. Believing that there is a whole universe and Earth is the only planet to develop life is quite unreasonable without strong evidence for it but so is the idea that aliens would cross the interstellar distances just to make crop circles or probe random farmers.
Meh, I don't think it's entirely insane. I mean, let's be honest, if humans had the technology to cross between solar systems in a reasonable amount of time, you know damn well humans would be fucking with whatever relatively primitive civilizations they come across. Like, you seriously expect me to believe that the idea that there might be alien teenagers (or god forbid, adults) who might take a starship for a joyride and probe a bunch of hillbillys is that insane? We live on a planet full of people who'd do it for shits and giggles. Hell, maybe they probe buttholes because some closeted gay farmer was like, "mah butt's bleedin' 'cuz a buncha aliens dun probed it I swear, not 'cuz I tried to stick a socket wrench up there" and they found it funny and rolled with it.
Imo the insane part is the belief that they'd try to communicate through crop circles or probe buttholes to study the human body. Not that they'd fly around trolling humans.
Edit: maybe they're baffled by humans because every time they try to take X-rays and do an MRI to study the human body, the human starts screaming about probing anuses. The translator fucks up and suggests the human is asking for something to be inserted into their anus. Sure enough, as soon as the metal is inserted, the human stops screaming. Before you know it, they declare that the proper procedure for studying humans is to insert a probe before proceeding with the study. They're still trying to figure out why though.
That's why they have to probe so many humans. They only needed to abduct two or three humans to understand how our bodies work, but they're completely baffled and still trying to figure out what circuitry in the brain is responsible for the "anal pacifier response".
Edit 2: fuck, now I'm trying to think of legitimate reasons why an alien would probe someone's butthole. Assuming aliens are indeed flying around probing people's buttholes, the only two things I can come up with is A) they're trying to get samples of human gut flora either so they can understand the risks associated with it being introduced into a foreign (i.e. extraterrestrial) environment or because they've been using it as a bioweapon, and/or B) they're trying to provoke a vagovagal syncope as a form of natural anesthesia.
I doubt it’s the case because we can find no evidence that it’s possible or happening and frankly anyone doing such things is unlikely to not leave massive evidence.
Yeah the kids will take joyrides, but if there’s a place the kids in town go for it sooner or later they’re gonna fuck up the place or crash
are you kidding. human farmers are known for their ass cracks. Always showing them off while working on tractors or doing plumbing. Well except for those prudish overalls types. I mean how are the aliens going to resist that.
