I’m not going to lie. I’m scared of aliens. I can watch any horror movie with any amount of gore or hauntings or ghosts or monsters or anything. But the minute you put some sort of alien abduction story in it, I’m out. Mind you, I have no problem with “nice” non-terrifying aliens (Doctor Who, Star Wars). My friends once strapped me down to a couch in Middle School and forced me to watch Signs. I do believe that I walked around my room for three months, spraying water in the air and praying for my life that nothing fizzled. I can’t take it. I’ll have nightmares for years. I even had to change the channel every time the trailer for The Fourth Kind came on the telly. But I was recently presented with an invaluable piece of information that will let me rest easy from now on.
“Australian wallabies are eating opium poppies and creating crop circles as they hop around “as high as a kite”, a government official has said. Lara Giddings, the attorney general for the island state of Tasmania, said the kangaroo-like marsupials were getting into poppy fields grown for medicine…”
Thank you Wallabies, for your cuteness and ability to get high and crash into each other. Nature rocks. I am safe. Full article here.
