msfledermausI'm in the break room with a bunch of cow-irkers. April is across from me, wearing a tinfoil hat so the aliens can't read her thoughts. It's that kind of day...
Then we started discussing the movie, "Signs" and I pointed out that even though the plot was fine, the science totally shot my suspension of disbelief. What alien in their right mind would come to a mostly-water planet, with tons of water-vapor in the air, and abduct humans that are mostly water if they were allergic? Maybe they were going to put them in a dehydrator bought off the internet? I dunno...but when I originally saw the movie, it was scary, scary, scary, until the water scene, which made me laugh out loud in disbelief...
Now April tells me I've ruined the movie for her. I've been apologizing for the last ten minutes, but I'm not as sincere as I could be. It's not my fault! I didn't make up the stupid science!! And where's MY tinfoil hat, anyway?
