    All of this is fairly standard but for one aspect. “The VBScript was neatly structured, and every important command was commented. That’s unusual,” added Schlapfer.

    This code is too nicely organized! It couldn’t possibly have been human.

    Not seriously critiquing their work. I just think it’s funny.

      A far too common mindset unfortunately.

      Pyramids? Aliens. Definitely no way massive slavery and threat of gruesome death could have moved those rocks. Had to be aliens.

      I’ve recently been exposed to Skinwalker Ranch. Against my will i might add. And no, there is apparently no chance that the location’s proximity to like 15 military bases has anything to do with weird shit in the sky. Definitely, totally, 1,000,000% aliens.

      Baghdad batteries? No, that’s not an anode and cathode in a jar with vinegar. Oh no. That’s fucking Advanced Alien Technology! Because there’s no possibility at all that the epicenter of the ancient world’s greatest centers of learning and education could have figured it out. No way. No smart monke. Just aliens.

      Honestly, It’s exhausting. I wish almost daily that I was that stupid. I can only imagine how these barely sentient sacks of meat perceive the world around them. Just floating through existence in a haze of youtube reaction, whinging about whomever is “woke” this week, and long winded dissertations about shit they know absolutely nothing about. I actively envy the stupid.

        While I wouldn’t be so quick to lump everyone with a (obvious to you) stupid belief as being absolutely inconsolably incompetent, as everyone has blind spots…

        There’s that very old saying: Ignorance is bliss.

        It very, very much is.
