Would you?

If a group of aliens flew up to your house tonight in some massive space ship ( though highly unlikely ), and asked you to join their intergalactical confederation, and travel the stars with them at the cost of being their test experiment, what would you say, and why?

I have to say that I would do it out of pure curiousity, and also, even if I resisted, they would probably still get their way in the end, so probably better to do it peacefully.

Omniscient.

Im gonna have to go with, no, followed by kicking the alien in the crotch, storing them in my deep freeze and eventually selling them to golden palace casino.

If it was tonight, i'd be inclined to say no... Its my 21st birthday this weekend so i wouldnt wanna miss out on all that booze and a chance to hang out with all my friends...

If it was next week... possibly... i love life on earth and all, but i got this wicked curiosity instinct i just cant kill... I'd have to ask if i could visit home every so often... also i would need more info into what the experiments would be.

I would go, they obviously need our help. I would help them if at
all possible.

Yes, I'd be scared of the experiments too, particularly cross breeding.

Cross breeding, kinky.


It would depend on the tests...Are they "We're going to shove these into your colon" tests or "Would you try these hot wings and home brewed beer and tell us what you think" tests?

Hahaha I like the hot wings and beer test.

I'd have to go with "no" as well. I tend to be mistrustful of beings that won't show themselves but go around with an air of secrecy about them that causes those who do interact with them to be seen as "crazy."

Besides, I have to work tomorrow.

21 you poor boy i was a fish at 19 LEGALY. i have personaly never realy understood not being able to drink untill 21.

as for the question asked

to be honest that would probably depend on what test that they wanted to perform. i realy wouldn't want to see if i could survive with any organs on the mia list for eample. but on the other hand if they offered a possibility to epand something like telikenisis than i probably would go for it. or right noew if they could make this dammed pain go away it would be apriciated greatly. it would also probably depend on my mood (sometimes i just aint very coopertive at all).

My answer would be Yes...They know why


-Dagger

No, I definitely would not.
I am perfectly happy here on Earth.

If I was going to be an experimental subject I would do it for our government here on Earth.
Why??? Exactly, I would'nt, so why would I go with some strange aliens just to have them poke and prod me. (As much fun as that sounds!)

Besides, I'm afraid of flying.

Na !

I think I would get bored to quickly. It takes a lot to keep my attention.

It is however fun to imagine or dream. Even more so after a little whacky tobbacky !

As long as the tests didn't involve wiping my memory or hamper me seeing and interacting with other species - sure.
Then again the fact they have given me choice, already makes me rest easy.

I wouldn't mind hitting the FTL button once either.

Hell no. Why would anyone want to be a slave.

I just watched "Fire in the Sky" again the other day. If it's like that kind of stuff, ummm, no.

Are the tests submitted orally or via an orifice??
And can i pick my own female human companion?
Can they gaurantee a cup of tea in the morning and a beer at night?
Are they 'cool' with weed?

If they don't agree to those terms then i'd challage them to a mono'O'mono no holds barred bare back wrestling. Winner takes all.

Are you crazy? No way i would go with them, probably end up dead. plus I have a family here, and what will they tell people, Hi my name's so-s0 and my Mom isn't around anymore because she hopped on a spaceship to help aliens! What a laugh.

Yes, but then they would probably force you to go anyways, and their respect for you gone.

If they would feel entitled to use force to compel you to go with them, then they did not have much respect for you to begin with.

Hmm, good point Watcher_Don.
