You should not use aluminum foil: it amplifies the mind control waves. If you want proper protection, you need to use tin foil. After all, we have heard of the tinfoil hat brigade, but not aluminum foil hats. Tin foil, by the way, actually is obtainable, but it is rather rare. I suppose you could crush up my old altoid tins to make it, but they might be made of an alloy that is unsuitable for the application.
I have a galvanised bucket, I would looked pretty silly running around with a bucket on my head, though.
I have a metal roof on my house, will that help?
Tin foil was superseded after WWII by aluminum foil.
I doubt the theory of preventing mind control waves/etc. predated WWII. So, oldsters like me continued to refer to metal foil as tin foil well into the 1980s or later.
Aluminum foil hats don’t have the cachet of “tin foil hats.”
Your bucket is steel with a zinc coating. No help.
As for the roof on your house–they just send in the rays through the windows and walls. You’re f****ed.
Aaccckkk!
The story of my life. No reason they won’t just land in my yard and walk right in and start probing. No body would ever believe me, after seeing me walk around with a bucket on my head. I can’t win for losing.
They can’t penetrate you with their rays if you wear your clothes inside out. You don’t need any hat at all.
There’s no intelligent life here, guys.
I know of three planets’ worth of aliens that think “Ooh la la, galvanized bucket head!” Which is always followed by “Earthling is clearly signaling that she is desirous of recreational probing…”
Pewter has a lot of tin in it. Perhaps you could get your hands on a pewter hat.
Are you telling me they speak French!!! How can I resist?
Resistance is futile anyway;)
I would like to know where I can get a squid gun (NOT a ray - everyone’s got a ray gun). I’ve always wanted a squid gun. Other octopods considered.
Okay, I feel like you’re just trying to draw me out of hiding.
SQUID GUN!!!
Pulled from the “I want some of whatever it is he’s smoking” files.
Be careful. there’s an *octopi trollurus *, a form of octopod, running loose in the pit. You can spot it coming, it has that “farm fresh” smell about it.
Thank you, I needed that.
Contact Vector Industries. They manufacture a squid launcher.
Squid are decapods.
I think she meant cephalopods!
In the sense of having 10 legs, but in the technical sense crabs are decapods.
No, no! Not pods, no pods of any kind, please!
