ET phone home!

Related Link » How do you greet an extraterrestrial?
“The Bay Area-based SETI Institute, dedicated to the search for alien life, is asking space enthusiasts around the world to think about what we should say if we ever get a cosmic phone call.”
 — By John Johnson Jr., June 7, 2009
In a previous post, I estimated that it would take, at a minimum, about 1½ millennia for aliens to reach us (in person) after receiving a greeting from us. For that reason, I would broadcast a greeting with reckless abandon and irony. Here are a few sample greetings off the top of my head:
  • ET phone home!
  • You Jew? You no look Jew!
  • How's Elvis doing?
  • Tell Pelosi to go home. Please!
  • wwjd?
  • Coke or Pepsi?
  • Where's Jimmy Hoffa?
Feel free to submit yours in the comments, but please be politically correct when referring to the aliens.

  2. Nice.

    Why DO fools fall in love?

    Is there any satisfaction to be gotten over there?

    Who the heck is Elenore Rigby?

  3. In case the aliens are a hostile of heavily-armored cyborg arthropods, I think a pre-emptive strike is mandatory, just to show our power and strike fear in their... heart-things.

    Any Britney Spears video will do.
