Do you think all the stuff we are being paid pennies for is being transmitted to aliens so they can study us?

C'mon. What is the purpose of all this info myLot is collecting? So they can sell ads, sure, but there must be more to it than that. Is there some alien compound in Kansas that is deeply studying our culture based on these interactions? God help us! (Oh I hope I get some responses on this one!)

But we are only a perticular types of peoples. Who ever willing to study us can not gain much from us.

Hey you misunderstood. I am not talking about all human beings. I am talking about mylot members only. We are here for only one type of reason. That is money. At least it is our one of main preference. Many peoples are not here who do not deserve online earning.

Ooooh, I see. Well, trust me, if I were only here for money, I'd be doing something else right now. But I see your point. I have seen lots of great and true interaction amidst all the crazy hubbub. I think we draw what we believe to us. Peace to you!

Wow. You have low self esteem for us humans. I know we've done some cruddy stuff, but we've done some cool stuff, too. Go team Human.

If that is true, and it very well could be, you never know. I have one thing to say.....All hail empier Kang...I hope some people on here get that. Seriously though, what would they really learn about us? We like money, can ramble on about nothing at all sometimes, we use computers. Why would they even bother with us then?

LOL! I totally get his joke!! When he said "hail Emperor Kang", it's from the episode of the Simpsons, when an a alien took over the earth, he was called Kang. LOL! Anyways, you never know, there could be aliens planted on earth for all we know. A lot of people believe that the government are hiding information about aliens.

lol. I don't get your joke, but I bet my dh would. What would they learn? Certainly all the things you said. Why would they even bother us--easily manipulated!!! Give 'em a few pennies and they will spill EVERYTHING.

Yes, we are studying you life forms and have determined from the basis of those studies that THERE IS NO INTELLIGENT LIFE ON YOUR PLANET!!! What a shame...same thing that happened to Mars.

Finally, a discussion that actually has some substance. There is no way aliens aren't reading our discussions. It's probably some alien realty show and they are all laughing at us.
• United States
14 Nov 06
Wow. I would hope they have better entertainment than this. I mean, I think it's pretty entertaining on the inside, but to be WATCHING it? What do you think it would look like? Text on a screen? Do you think we all have cartoon characters saying our lines? Or alien counterparts in wigs? How would they do it? It's probably like a soap opera, maybe? Or a game show? "What will the human type next?" Ooooh, the possibilities are endless. Get the Fox execs in here.

LOL! I don't really know how a cartoon voice differs from a regular voice, since regular folks record their voices for cartoons. hee hee...but I think I know what you mean. :)
• United States
14 Nov 06
You're right...it would be pretty boring to watch...but maybe a morning radio show could work. I bet it would be pretty funny if you had cartoon voices..or maybe stoner guys reading it. Aliens are prob laughing at us right now, saying how stupid our lives are. Calling us idiots and morons. They're the morons if they have nothing better to listen to in the morning than this trivial banter!

I reckon it'd be more like the CIA or NSA or Echelon are compiling profiles of as many people on the planet as possible so that when the One World Government takes over, they know who their real friends are and everyone else has their bank accounts frozen or sent to Gizmo. Who do you work for by the way ???? (tongue in cheeky) :-)
• United States
13 Nov 06
LOL. Or are you serious? I don't know how serious I am. Ok, I see the tongue in cheeky. But I suppose there could be some truth to it. I will know if you suddenly disappear! Thanks for responding to this question. I just got to pondering and decided to have fun with it. I hope a lot of people join in. :) And, as far as my employer...I'll never tell... ;) (Mostly b/c I'm not working right now.)

Yes, I was having a bit of fun but, I saw some other folks ask that question seriously and not one person has responded to them, THAT I found very interesting. If I told you that I have had 4 conversations with real spacemen, would you believe me? Probably not, But, I can prove it. Do you need proof? Go to my website, scroll down the page a bit, it is a long page by the way. You'll see. If I am telling fibs, you have my permission to chastise me all the way to Tasmania. If I am telling the truth, please say so. Cheers.

(IF I didn't need this $1.50/day, I'd just disappear from myLot right now to make your joke work. Alas...) Let's pretend I just faded ouuuuuuuuttttt. (It's hard to fade out in text.) Fading Fading Fading...

Holy cow, that has to be the most unusual topics I have answered yet! The majority of the content on this web site would only interest the mother of the person posting. It is hard to find discussions that interest me, but I like your style! Thanks for the laugh...........ps if the aliens are learning about us here, I think they left for greener pastures!

Pirate Bedhead (Kevin Shamel) - Here is one of a year of my husband's bed head photo.  I think this was the day our baby poked him in the eye upon waking.  Or international talk like a pirate day.  Who knows.  For more, go to www.shamelesscreations.com.
Ha! Thanks, Pookie. If my kids were posting some of this stuff, I STILL wouldn't be interested. (Unless, of course, it was my 20 month old, in which case I would still be impressed because I didn't know he could type!) But isn't it fun? What a slice of international and somewhat intergenerational life. AND they're paying us for it. A little. :) You're welcome for the laugh. I bet aliens are everywhere. I'm trying to get my husband on board here. I bet he'll come up with some doozies. But I hear him snoring over my baby monitor, so definitely not tonight. He said he thought it was somewhat dull himself, but I said, "DUDE, you are a writer--MAKE some interesting questions." We shall see. I will attach his bedhead photo. More c.an be seen at www.shamelesscreations.com

As long as they don't share my paypal account information with the aliens...I'd hate to see a mysterious withdrawal from the Intergalactic Peoples Bank of the Universe on there...

Nice! I'm hoping they are a more advanced race that has moved beyond the need of currency. Or perhaps humanitarians that will just make deposits. One can hope, right? I somehow lost track of this thread. There are more answers here! wooo hooo! Thanks for the comment, friend. :O)

Good Pt! Now you're thinking. I hope they aren't trying to determine whether or not they want to share the secrets of the universe with us. That would be a bummer if we missed out on that. Nice avatar. Have you been talking to my 20-month old?

too much carbonated water is bad for our health, maybe for the aliens, carbonated water is a poison to them since their immune system can't take the content levels of caffeine ingredients found on soft drinks.

This post made me laugh. What a bizarre commentary on our culture these post would make though. The aliens would believe that we are obsessed with the color of each other's eyes, our dogs names, and how much we've earned on myLot. Wait, maybe that *is* what we're obsessed with!

lol you never know, though i bet those aliens are laughing at us right now... there was once a truck parked outside my house for like 3 weeks... so obvious someone was being spied on or something... its unnerving
• United States
13 Nov 06
Whoa! That would be unnerving. Are you sure someone didn't just run out of gas and leave it there? I think I might have knocked on the door and offered them some cookies or something. You didn't investigate further? Creepy!
