Ancient Alients

UB is back. What does this portend?

1. Could it be that these aliens, so invested in the human race, are finally coming back to prevent our imminent destruction? That was Giorgio Tsoukalos opinion.

2. Could the reason be more prosaic? We hear that UB's five year struggle with the Australian Patent Bureau is over, and, in the patent judges' immortal words, "prior art, my arse".

3. jutta is selling to Facebook but must demonstrate more "engagement", thus the resurrection of ancient userids.

4. He has risen. Duh.

       More Swiss cheese.

       He came back to read all the NEW taglines!!

       Yes, dear. We know. They're lovely.

       Concur with [Ling]. As much as I'm pleased to see a baker return after an ideas hiatus, particularly [UnaBubba], it does irk me that so many ideas' annotations are rendered nonsensical* when a baker deletes their account. Stick around this time, hey fella?   

       * (more so)

       Ahh, you're just sore that he 'cheesed your masterpiece.   

       Which, by the way, and I cannot say this enough, is a true masterpiece. I shit laughter just thinking about it sometimes.

       I for one am ecstatic about the return of my buddy bubba. Yay!
blissmiss, Apr 11 2012
  

       It was Easter... what else was I to do?
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       This is not the origin of the screw like rabbits phrase? I don't know, I'm not a native English speaker :)

       Few of us are, [tc].   

       That would be [UnaBunny], I imagine?
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       DuoBunny at a minimum.
AusCan531, Apr 12 2012
  

       Clone whores.

       Psst, [Alterother], first copy, _then_ paste.

       Now, look up, and check out whos foot the boot is on ...

       We shall meet in a place where there is no darkness.   

       You'll have nowhere to hide, there, [8th].
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       Just keep walking down that white corridor, [UB]. The bullet will be entering your brain any moment ...   

       <focuses scope on [UB]'s buttocks, takes aim>

       I always figured you blew things up because you couldn't shoot for shit, [8].
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       Who could miss a target that big, though ?
8th of 7, Apr 12 2012
  

       It's still smaller than some egos... which may also be full of shit.
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       It should be safe for bubba now that the hordes of lurking boners seem to be gone.
rcarty, Apr 12 2012
  

       It's been a long time since I last saw a decent boner, [rcarty]. Age wearies us all, my friend.
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       Don't be so hard on yourself.
tatterdemalion, Apr 12 2012
  

       I should know better than to argue with idiots. They simply bring you down to their level then trounce you with experience.
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       // idiots //   

       Nearly 23 million of 'em, at the last official count ...
8th of 7, Apr 12 2012
  

       // first copy, _then_ paste. //   

       I am sure I have no idea to what you are referring. I am quite meticulous in my cuttings and pastings.
Alterother, Apr 12 2012
  

       Shit, [8th], that's more than a third of your population. Why don't you come and live here? We bundle ours up and send them to live in the UK, neatly improving the average IQ of both countries.   

       We'd allow you to do the same, by settling here. I assume you're of above average intelligence, or you'd have blown yourself up by now.
UnaBubba, Apr 12 2012
  

       This is a wonderful motivation to actually create ideas that are pleasant n fun rather than just Techno Strong thinking.......   

       a giant piece of fabric unfurls, saying something welcoming. fortunately there are photovoltaic fabric wigglers that keep the unfurled fabric wiggling once unfurled thus more people notice it, thus are more welcoming, more often
