The Truth is Out There

[tealin]

I live in a town of crazy people.

The following is a facsimile of a photocopied flyer that was plastered all down the street where I work. I've done my best to replicate the spelling and the text is accurate (I copied it down) but my handwriting looks like I actually use it frequently. I'll try to get a copy tomorrow and scan the real thing but for now ...



I actually went out and checked, just for yuks, and because I needed some fresh air* ... If there were alien spaceships in the sky, they weren't bright enough to show up in the city. Not planning to do an Aldebaran check before dawn, though. Ugh.
*Does that make me crazier than the writer?

I think my favourite thing about it is a toss-up between the descending pyramid of underlines, which I haven't seen since middle school, and the fact that he actually used five exclamation points ... twice. (For those of you who have not read Maskerade, five exclamation points is a sure sign of an unhinged mind.)

I love that book, especially, for some reason Mr Bucket who gets infected with opera.

And, yeah, I'd have gone out to look as well, I mean we might have been witness to so great event and ended up in a movie.

did you see anything in the sky?i mean alienish?

:D Let us know - with photos! - what sort of destruction will befall your city in the hands of the alien hordes.

[noodledaddy.livejournal.com]

The aliens would take all the coffee. The city would shut down.

TRAGEDY!

The underline pyramid sounds like something Bucket would do at his most insane.

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

Uhhhh.... no.

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

D: They WOULD! The blaggards.

Well gee, if it was "prophesid" in the Bible it must be true. Cuz they're always right.

I never even heard about the Alderbaran thing, and I take Astronomy for cripes' sake.

Also, weren't there supposed to be seven seals?

Why am I bothering to point out all of the errors in this notice when it does it so efficiently on its own?

[thearchduchess.livejournal.com]

For me it's a toss up between the atrocious grammar and spelling and the fact that he just used lined paper and a pencil.

At least the Scientologists put money into it...

'There formation look like this'?

And, y'know, it's not called the Aldebaran.

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

Hehe, I know, I was mentally composing a list of snarky footnotes to the flyer on my way home but then realised it'd be pointless. :)

[wizardelfgirl.livejournal.com]

Allow me to crack up and laugh all over my room *does so*
Seriously, I hope you get the original flyer, if this almost killed me I can't wait to see the "professional" version ;P

[floorlamps.livejournal.com]

That's strange and beautiful and brings a much-needed smile to my day.

[missuscarroll.livejournal.com]

Scoundrels. Cretins! Aliens are just so tiresome.

[salamandersoup.livejournal.com]

LOL WHAT. xDD Apparantly someone had wayyy too much time on their hands.

Greatest flyer evar. XD

[timba.livejournal.com]

Well I, for one, welcome our new alien overlords.

[grafin-drachen.livejournal.com]

Aww, Damn... By checking LJ late, I missed the event, damn... :(

So he's doubly unhinged?

[bananabasket.livejournal.com]

If you had seen aliens you'd be shakin' in your boots right now.

[twirlynoodle.livejournal.com]

You got that right. Aliens give me the willies.

[infiniteviking]

Egad. *falls over laughing*

[kirillptn.livejournal.com]

Ha!
Here in Russia it's normal))))

...Is that the 4th doctor? 'Cause even if that's what they wear on Gallifry, that is one SILLY hat

[wondrousstrange.livejournal.com]

Gallifreyan silly hats are an age-old tradition. The Time Lords are known throughout the galaxy and beyond for their eccentric taste in headgear (and scarves, trousers, cloaks, black velvet suits, etc.) and are only rivaled by the Castrovalvans in this area. Some alien races whose cranial structures do not support hats think this is unfair, but nobody can stop laughing at their lumpy heads long enough to care.
There's a picture somewhere of David Tennant wearing that.
