You will probably not get abducted by aliens if you wear this hat

I am so tired of being abducted by aliens. Only two people have been abducted while using this new anti-alien abduction technology. Only two!

I stopped being abducted by aliens when I became a Muslim.

Re-abducted. Only two were re-abducted. Well, and maybe a number of those who couldn't be reached.

Is it just me ordoes that helmet make that dude look a lot like Sgt. Schultz?

Thirty-five bucks? Meh. I'll stick with the aluminum foil I bought at the local Dollar General. It's shiny. Funny, searching Google images for 'foil alien hat' shows the photo from the first link in the post.

One of these days the invasion is going to begin and all of these people that everybody made fun of on MeFi are going to be TOTALLY VINDICATED. And while the aliens are probing you with their tentacles you are going to feel really sick to your stomach about all of that tentacle rape anime you watched, knowing where those ideas really came from.

"Wear the helmet as much as you can, especially during times that you feel you are usually abducted." Today is what, Saturday? I'm usually abducted around 12:31 AM Saturdays.

Dammit, where are those guys? They promised me a tentacle rape in every orifice. And my pores need to be microraped, dammit. I need exfoliation!

The aliens may have mastered interstellar travel, mind control, teleportation and anal probes, but thank the gods they haven't figured out how to remove the chinstraps from our foil helmets!

The site is a hoax. Er, that is to say, it is not a site run by people who actually believe all this. It lacks that earnest quality one sees in the authentically batshitinsane.

I read that there are millions of Americans who insist that they have been abducted by aliens. That explained a lot. Now I read that there are only two, so how did George Bush get elected?

For people who really do believe in that sort of thing and are fearful of it, this might be useful. I'm not kidding. When you're treating a non-disease that the patient is certain they have, then only a placebo can bring about a "cure". If this brings comfort to a crazy person, it's cheap at the price.

Yay! Another chance to link to Pamela Stonebrooke! She'd never wear this helmet though. No re-abductions, no hot sex with reptilians. And I'll say it again... she is NOT a jazz singer.

Being abducted by aliens... it's almost like a dream, no? There's some connection between dreaming while awake and schizophrenia - I wonder how often 'being abducted by aliens' might belong to a similar class of phenomenon.

miss lynnster: "Yay! Another chance to link to Pamela Stonebrooke! She'd never wear this helmet though. No re-abductions, no hot sex with reptilians. And I'll say it again... she is NOT a jazz singer." "Reptilians are not a politically correct species in the UFO community, and to admit to having sex with one – much less enjoying it – is beyond the pale as far as the more conservative members of that community are concerned." ROFL!

I once bought a copy of Fortean Times which included an alien abduction reference card, memorable chiefly for the following advice. IN CASE OF ALIEN ABDUCTION 1. Remain where you are. 2. Do or give whatever they ask. 3. Forget everything that happens.

1. Remain where you are. 2. Do or give whatever they ask. 3. Forget everything that happens. Sex-slave credo? Nancy Reagan's silken exhortations to her husband? What the chicken-headed communist dominatrix in my head warns me every night around 4:45?

I am so tired of being abducted by aliens. keep a can of kraft easy cheese on your nightstand and spray them with it when they show up ... they HATE that, it makes them break out ... and inevitably when they get back to the mothership some joker will laugh and tell them they look like a cheesesteak in fact, it works so well to repel aliens that i don't even need to buy kraft easy cheese to have it work ... when they scan my non-tinfoil hatted brain, they quickly discover that i know the dangerous secret of kraft easy cheese and stay the hell away from me now all of you know the secret ... and i'm 100% certain that none of you will be abducted either aren't i a pal?

BTW, this guy's for real. I've met him. It had nothing to do with alien abductions and we didn't discuss it, but he's for real and he believes.

I prefer to wear this slightly more stylish protective cap when I am not in the mood for an abduction.

Ritchie - That card - 'In Case of Alien Abduction' sounds like Schwa to me. "Act inconspicious."

It might very well have been, Zack - the artwork was identical in style to the pictures in the wiki article.
