Alien invasion: Your reaction

[Dangit2019]

My family would see who calls shotgun (literally).

We'd probably just board our place up and do the basic siege setup in case nukes have no effect.

 

[phreakdb]

Grab Towel
Grab Hitchhikers Guide
Point Thumb toward Space
Peace out!

Plan B

Get off the toilet and...
'Purge the Unclean!'

 

[Xdeser2]

Grab a lawn chair, a cooler full of beer, and a classic 80's boombox, sit on my roof, blast REM's "its the end of the world as we know it" and watch the funsies unfold...

...In retrospect I think I might be a sadist...

 

[The Pumpkin Witch]

I'm here to answer any questions on the nature of the invasion, by the way.

Except you haven't answered anyone's questions. Are these 'Independence Day' aliens? Reavers? 'War of the Worlds'? Are they here to enslave or destroy? Are they killing at will or saying: "Bring us to your leader."? Are they attacking from space or sending in fighters? Are they landing troops? Are they attacking major cities or the countryside, too? Are they just attacking One state, one country, or one continent at a time or the entire planet including hundreds of major cities and thousands of smaller cities ALL AT ONCE?!?

If so on that last one then I'd just start counting bullets in my pistol and make damn sure to keep one with my own name on it handy.

 

[Iron_will]

Are the alien invaders the BETA? If that's the case.

I'll take a seat, grab some popcorn and watch the world burn.

 

[StormShaun]

The first thing I would want to confirm is "Are they going to kill us all?" and then I would see what the government will do whilst I gather people, supplies, weapons and information. Then by the time they will be killing everyone/whatever we'll be ready and fight back.

Are the alien invaders the BETA? If that's the case.

If it's them. We'll need some damn mechs to do that crap. ^_^

Also several hot girls, most of Earth's population dead and me a time traveling bastard who is a fully trained soldier.

Sounds like a fun, fun future!

 

[uzo]

Get a few drinks, grab my towel, and hope for the best.

And hope they don't recite poetry, amirite?

 

[FalloutJack]

The world will probably go batshit crazy.

I, on the other hand, will find an enormously-long scarf, a good coat, some jellybabies, and try to confound the alien bastards.

 

[SomeLameStuff]

Step 1: Keep calm!
Step 2: Wait for the Doctor!
Step 3: ???
Step 4: STEAL TARDIS!

 

[felbot]

well sneak around and scavenge, if I find any dead aliens I can steal the techs they were carrying and use it against them, couldd work, i hope they have a lot of bombs.

 

[Fallere825]

I will confront the aliens head on, wearing nothing and holding only a hammer in one hand and lube in the other, lets see the kind of reaction that gets.

 

[Sprinal]

I am assuming that Humanity is the more aggressive species. I am then assuming that the Aliens are coming here out of desperation (they are in a war or something) and can't afford to lose to many of their numbers. After this I am assuming that us being more aggressive we have better weapons technology (or maybe they just are deploying their heavier weapons elsewhere). After this I am assuming we have detected them on Radar. After this I am assuming that the alien ships are traveling in small numbers. Mostly trying to have a covert war so as to avoid awaking the sleeping giant that is the United Nations.

After this I am assuming that the UN have consolidated all their representatives to give military access to an underground organisation. This Organisation will be funded by the governments and be reverse-engineering alien technologies. Also the aliens shall launch "terror missions" to try and prove that the organisation is incapable of defending Earth and at the same time building bases as well. Then I am assuming that humanity is actually more advanced than the Aliens but the reasons the aliens have more powerful equipment and interstellar travel is because of access to materials that are not found on Earth. And this/these materials are relied upon in order for the Aliens equipment to run.

Now assuming all of this. I would sit back and let the governments secret 'organisation' deal with the threat.

 

[Twilight_guy]

Me? I don't believe it until multiple major news sites confirm it and have live video. Then I sit an watch to see what happens, like the rest of the world that isn't immediately killed. Humans can't compete with FTL tech wielding aliens, so sit back and see what happens.

 

[yuval152]

I will start to throw the cheese at it.

 

[exessmirror]

all hail our alien overlards. that is if they dont just kill us.
if they do im going out falling skies style

 

[Tanis]

Depends...are their women hot?

 

[CounterReproductive]

As long as they left the internet up I probably wouldn't notice.

 

[Monsterfurby]

I'd probably think

"Poor aliens. They have no idea what they are getting themselves into..."

and go back to sleep, waiting for either the Earth to self-destruct fighting over who actually is going to represent us or the aliens being violently dispatched courtesy of the American favourite combo from the '40s to the '90s: Mr. Nuke and the Warheads.

 

[Ninjat_126]

This thread made me realise that I am ready for a zombie invasion but vastly unprepared for aliens. THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE.

Zombies, you can kill with something along the lines of "Shotgun shell in face."

Aliens? Nice broad spectrum there. Fire? Makes them grow. Kniife? They spray acid blood in your face. Nukes? Energy shields. Guns? High-tech armour plating.

My plan? Get a survival kit ready and read up on how to live in the wilderness. Not much I could really do to counter a whole alien fleet.

 

[Savryc]

Ideally: Go Duke Nukem 3D on their arses.

Realistically: Shit myself and die.
