I have leaned on some of my favorite stand up comics to distract me from the dumpster fire that 2020 has been. Occasionally, I find something that crosses over into my other fields of fascination, UFO’s and Extraterrestrial visitations. Collin Quinn has a unique take on this in his November 2020 HBO special, Collin Quinn & Friends Parking Lot Comedy Show:
“Either we end, (it’s) apocalyptic, or we get invaded by aliens. Which everyone’s always worried about…because aliens will come down and they’ll be this superior, these genius people and they’ll take us over and make us their slaves. Yeah, just as scary? What if they come and they’re dumb? What if aliens show up and they’re fans of ours? And they just came down ‘cause it was on their bucket list to visit Earth, and they’ve been watching us on YouTube. And they’re like 8 years behind, and they’re saying “Amaze-balls” and “Awesome sauce!”
Yeah, what if they come and they’re dumb, screen obsessed, and easily manipulated by their media consumption. You know, like us?
