[@drewahrens3141]

I started laughing really hard when the crew was trying to come up with excuses for visiting the captains office. Then I started laughing even harder when the human said they might introduce monopoly. I legit choked-laughed saying "ohhh no, that is not a good idea."

[@specter3983]

[@wrath2501]

Tell the aliens about other monsters like The various types of bigfoot, the Jersey Devil, Slenderman, Freddy Kruger, Jason Vorhees, Chupacabra, and yokai. Also don't forget to mention the dark places where something evil seems to lurk and people just disappear.

[@MrHuntingClaw]

I remember having watched a horror movie a long time ago about some creatures existing in some kind of mirror world, they would sometimes go out to hunt humans and drag them into their own world, whenever they were outside in the human world, eletricity and lights would always give out and they looked pretty much like giant hands, I don't remember the name of said movie, but at the time it did feel quite scary.

[@genericname42]

Rubixs cubes ooh that engineer is evil.

[@purpledevilr7463]

Honestly, the rubix cube and the algorithm are definitely linked in some semi-occult way.

[@nvfury13]

The algorithm has more in common with the Rubix pyramid: a bizarre puzzle of lights, beads, colored patches and designed to be unbeatable.

Honestly, you could probably ward off any invasion of earth by just sharing monster stories. Wait till they meet Godzilla and King Kong. We have footage of them fighting so it must be true.

The engineer forgot to mention monsters are imaginary. Anyway, he could have mentioned piranhas, salt water crocodiles, legionary ants, black mambas, and worst of all the monsters on Earth, the candiru fish. Now THAT is a terrifying creature! *shivers*

Australia’s deadliest animals

[@utkuayranc3210]

ya forgot the murder hornet

[@wrath2501]

Not to mention frogs the size of your finger nail that can kill you with one touch, snails that can delete your existence, and spiders smaller than an inch that are probably more deadly than the spiders the alien mentioned. Not to mention the other theorized horrors that lurk deep in the Earth or at the bottom of the ocean.

[@xxXXRAPXXxx]

No. What all those imaginary creatures have in common is that they ware human. No other creature can really frighten us (some people put spiders in their mouth or eels in their ass. Or have a pet tiger or hyena.) but the one that changes us into something different than what we are mentally and is a danger to loved ones. Basically we had to invent more threatening monsters because we dominated everything else in this deathworld.

[@TheAderwolf]

i googled it... i agree with the candiru.

[@unlikelysuspect5491]

But no finger traps. Any alien with fingers is getting one

[@curiousangel6321]

Monopoly might be one of those games that need to be put on restricted list to keep from causing diplomatic incidences.

[@johncochran8497]

Naa. How about introducing the game Diplomacy itself?

[@M4gl4d]

Well so long as they don't play Risk. And why don't they play Settler of Ctan?

[@henrypaleveda7760]

settlers of catan is great, but do you think that they would introduce any expansions?

[@cheezeguyLOZ]

First story, don't let the engineer recreate Mario Kart.

[@carlfromtheoc1788]

First one - NO! Not Monopoly unless you want a full scale riot. Give them tiddley-winks, puzzle boxes, and Legos.

[@henrypaleveda7760]

legs would just introduce guerilla warfare, the footpains, the pains

[@sherylcascadden4988]

Jigsaw puzzles or puzzle boxes would be good.

[@cananybodyfindmeause]

when he said all that the toy was was a bit of plastic and it was part of the reason he became an enginner i was SURE everyone was getting legos.

[@drewahrens3141]

I want to hear about aliens watching Godzilla vs Kong and tell them there're real. I bet that would be funny as hell.

[@garysprandel1817]

Some time after the following Christmas a derelict ship was found adrift with all crew dead apparently by their own hand. It was deemed an unsolved mystery of the void as nothing on-board was out of the ordinary save for multiple plastic houses, little metallic miniatures of apparent human designed items,pastel colored currency of some sort and several foldable fiberboard squares all bearing incidental blaster burns and melee weapon damage in the derelict.

[@notafrisbee5907]

Both of them were very entertaining! Nice picks.

[@americusfallout4777]

If a human brings monopoly onto a ship its better to throw into a furnace or dissolve with acid to prevent war or total ship destruction. Also he didn't even tell him about the scary monsters and he allready made earth a no go zone for him

And for story 2, the real monsters on Earth are every bit as intriguing and deadly as our fictional ones, they just have to obey the laws of physics. Well almost all of them do. Everyone knows that laws, physics or otherwise just don't apply to a cat. Like tigers. Flat-foot jump over 10 feet vertical, and when running (not after you, you was a snack 300 yards ago) they can spring over 20 feet up in the air. At a dead run. From a cat 6 to 10 feet long, and weighing in anywhere from 220 (furbro needs to work on them hunting skills) to over _600_ _POUNDS!_ These monsters are not afraid of you, they see you as food. Lions also, but maybe no quite so the whole instant death thing. Then there's all the nasty types of snakes, fishies, and don' forget bug--borne illnesses. And oh so much more. So, sure come to Earth! We'll give you a vacation you'll remember for the rest of your life!
