Had you been, er, probed?

A woman at a petrol station noticed a spaceship landing in front of her. An alien stepped out of the spaceship and started to pump gas into it. The woman noticed the letters ''U.F.O.'' printed on the side of the ship. She turned to the alien and asked ''Does U.F.O. stand for Unidentified Flying Object?'' The alien answered, ''No, it stands for Unleaded Fuel Only!''

Otta I can't tell if I had been probed or not, but I had stinging nettle scratches all over me and my hair was a mess. I was a bit of a p@?? artist back in the day so it could have been just me going off on a bit of a beano. However, my friend who was abducted by the yellow light told me that these creatures can wipe your memory clear after they've played about with you in their ship. Who knows, I may have been probed after all.


Louisa.

The problem with this post is you imagine aliens think like you. They probably have a way of thinking completely alien to you. If you were to walk across a trail of ants and stopped to pick your nose, do you think the ants would wonder why you bothered them? They might but you might be blissfully unaware of them or not as the case may be. Either way it wouldn't matter.

of course, I was poking fun.


But intellignece and technological achievement at the very least imply two things, an understanding of cause and effect and picturing goals to achieve.


This means that there's some point to crpossing the universe, hanging about above peckham rye for a bit, then going elsewhere. However alien their thinking it seems a bit of a waste of time.


I'd get it more if we were detroyed for an intestellar bypass without bothering to tell us....

I'm amazed someone else remembers the UFO in Waverley upper,I have a hazy recollection of it (perhaps we aren't supposed to be able to remember it) was it about 1977/78.I also remember the adults ushering us in but truly cannot recall ever having a conversation about it.Im glad somebody else has spoken about it as I thought I may have imagined it as I was 12 or 13 at the time.

loni: I too am amazed that someone else remembers it as the person I was with all those years ago vaguely remembers it but doesn't recollect it as clearly as me!

I'm not sure of the year, it could have been post 77 or 78 and the other thing it was in the evening (maybe the workers that came rushing out where to do with a post school club/youth club)???

Hi Laur, how bizarre,it possibly could have been 76/77 but I thought it was late afternoon playtime although it may have visited before.I find it incredible that no,one else has mentioned this and I do see quite a few people who would possibly have been there at the time.Maybe only certain people see them like ghosts or children who are often disbelieved,personally I've never said as I feel people think you are making it up.note that the person who started this thread admitted to having a few pints,also the people in America who talk about abduction are ridiculed and perhaps that's why no,one with any sense talks about it. I am actually quite sceptical and a sensible person.

    • it was super odd... my first instinct was perhaps this individual was lost or needed help... but when they just stood there looking me dead in the eyes it felt intimidating.  i did call 101 and they were super helpful and seems like i wasnt the only one that rang that night. thanks for the help and advice ... really appreciate it 🙂
    • They don't normally come to somebody's front door specifically to stick their tongues out, having had no prior contact with that person. 🙄
    • @alice I suggest you reserve judgement until you've experienced it yourself. 
    • Yes, I've never bought a  phone that was locked to a specific network. So as far as I know,I can just stick any SIM card in my old mobile. Or indeed my new mobile, but there wouldn't be much point in that; I think the old one  still works, but there must have been some reason why I bought a new one. I think I wanted something with more storage capacity, and my new one has loads. It's just occurred to me that I need to double check all my photos etc are backed up. I hardly ever make actual phone calls, I usually use WhatsApp or texts or emails, but clearly if my main phone is stolen I would need to make various phone calls ASAP. I was just going to get a cheap card from Argos, so I'm not sure anybody there would know! The actual mobile I use is on a SIM only contract with iD, so maybe I should just ask them. I don't care about the number as it's only for occasional use. I've had my main mobile number ever since I've had a mobile, apart from a work related one, so around 25 years, and I do care about that number as it's very easy to remember,  so I've moved it around whenever I've changed providers  Oh, really? I thought there were just two sizes and if you needed the smaller one you just took off the surrounding bit? Surely mobiles take a SIM card for any network, otherwise you could never change network without changing your phone? How long have you had that SIM card in the phone? If I  have to make phone calls using the back up phone, the person I was calling wouldn't know who it was! They might think it was spam! I'd have to tell them in advance that I was going to call them 🤣
