What if aliens were living next door to you?

So, do you sometimes think that your neighbors must be aliens? Do you think you would notice if aliens secretly switched your real life neighbors with fake alien clones? Do you think the aliens would actually act better than your real neighbors? Earlier today, I was watching a movie, where a guy has outer space aliens living next door to him. Actually, the aliens are watching him and ultimately he exposes their evil plot. And, it made me think. If outer space aliens were real, how do you know they are not already living in our neighborhoods? How can you be sure that your next door neighbor isn't really an alien? Would there be some type of signs to look for, like mysterious lights above the house at night? Or, would they act just like everyone else? In the movie, the aliens were an elderly grandmother and her grandson, so they looked perfectly normal and acted like everyone else. Actually, they acted more normal than anyone else, and even recycled! How funny is that?

i def think some alien neighbors would be more friendly than my real ones! ok maybe im exaggerating a little!! i would love to hv one living next door, im fascinated with aliens and the universe idea that we are not alone!! on the other hand i think i would be a little scared!! :D the key things to know if ur neighbor is an alien are look out for grey/green skin, their accent and humm the little antennas !!! :D did u ever watch the TV show the 3rd rock from the sun?? :D heheh it was sooo funny i loved that alien funny family :)

That was my favorite show when it was on. Actually it's still my favorite show, when I can find reruns locally. You and me should get together and start a fan club! Maybe do a cool message board or blog. That way we could discuss our favorite episodes. I miss those third rock guys! (and one third rock girl!)

Now that you mention it, my neighbors DO act strangely from time to time. Their being aliens would explain a lot of things. Could be they are really pod people, or worse!

If one of your neighbors turns out to be Nichole Kidman, then I would really watch out! She's in that new pod people movie. Haven't seen it yet, but I'm guessing they turn her into a pod person too. I think she'd make a cool pod person.

I think I would look for strange antennas, but I would be cool with it so long as they are nice neighbours, I already have nice neighbours, in fact I have never had bad neighbours but I have seen people with horrific neighbours so I am willing to accept anyone so long as they are nice.

To me aliens are fiction. It is only in the movies and fiction books written by novelist. But here in our place there is this group of those who believe on them. They are reporting that they can see some UFOs circling around us and can be seen in the space above. If there are, I would say nice meeting them. And if there are aliens here, perhaps our space astronauts going to some planets are considered UFOs of other living creatures in other space. What do you think?

Nah i don't think my neighbors are alien firstly because they are my relatives. Second i think all my neighbors don't act weird or suspicious. But i believe in alien since there are many planet out there that are not discovered maybe because they are too far for the space ship or something. Now it make me think that what if someone here on earth is an alien just studying our behavior.

That's weird, but i guess if ever my neighbor is an alien i will not panic as long as i feel they are harmless, but of course it will hit my curiousity to know how do they act, how do they live, what do they do. Maybe, i will notice something different in them compared to an ordinary human being. I bet they are not eating same food as ours since their celestial body is different from us.

That will be so cool. I would like to be their friends. I think they will teach us many things when we are good friends. I am so interested in the outspace.

Hmmm, since I definitely believe that aliens exist among us here, i wouldn't be surpriced that much if some would be living next to me, even though the probabilities are against it ;) In any case, I dont think I would mind it that much. I haven't got such great neigbours next to my house, so maybe an alien will be a better choice, especially if they are friendly and nice ;)

I am not to sure that they are not aliens. We have neighbors on one side of us that do not talk to anyone. We live in a great neighborhood and everyone talks and gets along. We someimes have block parties and invite them but they never sespond or show up. They bought the house from her parents so she has been in the neighborhood for some time. He grew up in the same town. I am not to sure about them

I doubt my neighbours to be aliens because whenever i find them walking along the road they keep on avoiding looking or speaking to anybody. Eyes looking keenly towards something far away frm our reach, always straight looking.

Ha ha! Good question Queenie, its time for fun! (BTW, friend request!!) Well if neighbors were replaced there would probably be no improvement (cept the neighbors across the street, they suck). I could probably tell if the good neighbors got possessed, but the sucky neighbors would have to be really acting weird for me to suspect it. Now for the fiction/signs to look for. In Iczer the aliens possess but you can only detect it if you are superhuman. They act like the people they possess spot on, but if they get hungry or ready for battle their real forms can show. In Star Trek, you have to look for a small protruding quill on the back of someone's neck. Also, I'd probably look for weird gray veins, metallic protrusions and odd glowing eyes (props to whoever gets that one). Coneheads...uh that's too obvious, next! In future justice league, you have to look for a starfish looking thing attached to the person, usually on the torso so it might be hard. In Silhouette, look for stitching on the victim, the aliens rip the skin off and use it for a suit. In Ground Zero, look for anyone doing weird feats of strength or abduction, otherwise it's hard to do until they attack. If its from a parallel dimension, look if the victim has a propensity to an extreme form of temperature, either hot or cold. You can even try a magnet if the suspected alien is mechanical, metal or polyalloy. Yea I posted all of that for your chuckles. Hope you enjoyed it. :)
