Many people work side by side with space aliens who look human -- but you can spot these visitors by looking for certain tip-offs, say experts.
They listed 10 signs to watch for:
-
Odd or mismatched clothes.
"Often space aliens don't fully understand the different styles, so they wear combinations that are in bad taste, such as checked pants with a striped shirt or a tuxedo jacket with blue jeans or sneakers," noted Brad Steiger, a renowned UFO investigator and author. -
Strange diet or unusual eating habits.
Space aliens might eat French fries with a spoon or gobble down large amounts of pills, the experts say. -
Bizarre sense of humour.
Space aliens who don't understand earthly humour may laugh during a serious company training film or tell jokes that no one understands, said Steiger. -
Takes frequent sick days.
A space alien might need extra time off to "rejuvenate its energy," said Dr. Thomas Easton, a theoretical biologist and futurist. -
Keeps a written or tape recorded diary.
"Aliens are constantly gathering information," said Steiger. -
Misuses everyday items.
"A space alien may use correction fluid to paint its nails," said Steiger. -
Constant questioning about customs of co-workers.
Space aliens who are trying to learn about earth culture might ask questions that seem stupid, Easton said.
"For example, a co-worker may ask why so many Americans picnic on the Fourth of July," noted Steiger. -
Secretive about personal lifestyle and home.
"An alien won't discuss domestic details or talk about what it does at night or on weekends," said Steiger. -
Frequently talks to himself.
"An alien may not be used to speaking as we do, so it may practice speaking," Steiger noted. -
Displays a change of mood or physical reaction when near certain high-tech hardware.
"An alien may experience a mood change when a microwave oven is turned on," said Steiger.
The experts pointed out that a co-worker would have to display most if not all of these traits before you can positively identify him as a space alien.
