1. No we were put here by aliens.

Duh.

[Bucky]

2. Yes, but how long are we gonna be stuck in the galaxy's "time out corner"?

Could our ancestors have done anything so bad that we need to be punished with 6000 years of "time out"?

7. theres no way anyone would believe that

Donald Rumsfeld is giving the president his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, 3 Brazilian soldiers were killed."

"OH NO!" the President exclaims. "That's terrible!"

His staff sits stunned at this display of emotion, nervously watching as the President sits, head in hands.

Finally, the President looks up and asks, "How many is a brazillion?"

11. We are descended from Pak

Two and a half million years ago, a group of Protectors hollowed out an asteroid, turned it into a ship, and set sail for the galactic arms. They eventually settled on Earth, but discovered that the Tree-of-Life root would not grow, meaning that no Breeders would turn into Protectors, and the Protectors would die without the root. The Protectors spent their time building a laser strong enough to send a message for help back to the Pak homeworld. Eventually, the Breeders, known to us as Homo habilis, evolved into present-day forms, including humans.

13. Yes, and the chimps still can't get over it.

There went the neighborhood.

[DarkTirade]

14. Technically yes.

But only if you only consider the genus homo sapiens. Just because our particular species evolved here doesn't mean that the life itself on this planet wasn't transplanted from elsewhere first. :P
