About Me

Yes, the rumors are true. We really are shape-shifting, albino lizard-men from ... well, whats the point telling you where when over 99 percent of humanity is completely ignorant of astronomy anyway? Try asking the average man-on-the-street what Corona Australis is and the silly mortal will probably think it is a Mexican beer in a big can. LOL! I've got to stop laughing now! The clear membranes over my snake eyes are watering! But seriously now back to reality, we are superior to you as we are fourth-dimensional beings (which of course your puny earth minds could never comprehend, first off with most of you not even aware that 3D does not require 'special glasses' such as the ones you recieve with your consumer programming from our military-entertainment complex) and for our sustinence we prefer to feed off your species negative emotions like fat American youngsters on a school field-trip to Taco Bell ... when of course we don't feel like actually eating your human flesh and cracking your bones with our dragon teeth (Understand that you humans are among the least nutritious and certainly the most bland tasting of all the herd animals of earth. That is why we prefer to mutilate the heffers).
We would like to thank you, the barbarian hordes of Earth for providing us with the endless wars and slaughters we need to make us full. Not to mention the entertainment we get from observing your species unlimited stupidity as we watch from our saucers and underground installations with unsympathetic indifference to all of you as we prepare for the grand finale fireworks display of your species' nuclear holocaust!
