According to Pravda a group of fishermen captured a strange creature in the Azov sea. They thought it was an extraterrestrial alien, and what does one do when confronted with a squealing alien demanding to be taken to your leader? Well, you eat it, of course.

Pravda?
Nikakoi nyet!

For some reason all I can think about now is the chestburster scene from Alien...

What would you do when performing a hoax? Eat the evidence, obviously...

I'm reminded of the story in which a wife clubs her husband to death with a frozen leg of lamb, then cooks it and serves it to the ivestigating police. :p

Hey! I read that story...

Pravda.ru makes me sad. Its the perfect indicator of the depths the Gangster Capitalists sunk to in the 1990s... they sold the brand of the Communist Party newspaper to a publisher with less journalistic integrity than Weekly World News. Its Lenin-in-grave-turning stuff.

Nah, thats just him trying to get up and destroy capitolism, silly.

Mmmm...Alien Stroganoff...

They caught some sort of weird skate. Big deal. If they like those they should go fluke fishing with me. I catch a shitload of 'em.

What's funny is that they thought it was an alien but ate it anyway.

Now this is my kind of journalism. Pravda rocks!

Ironically, Pravda today has a lot more truth in it than the Pravda under the Soviets.

Alien: Its the other Greenish-blue-turns-neon-pink-when-you-expose-it-to-sunlight meat!

Pravda?

Huh? :confused:

i can see how some drunk-ass Russian sailors may have come to ingest this "alien"...

"hey, isnt that thing *hic* weird? ... dare me to *hic* eat it?"

"50 Rubles says you won't..."

Huh? :confused:

'Truth?
No way!'

Or something like that. My Russian isnt very good.

Yeah...but not by much...

Well, given that the ownership went from Party oligarchs to plutocrats, it's not exactly that much of an improvement.

Yeah, that doesn't help either. He wants the Russian media to play the role it did under the USSR; it provided cheap, bread-and-circuses entertainment as a way to distract people from real issues. The real issues it did report on were closely monitored and censored to reflect the party line, whatever it was at the time.

And you thought Alabama rednecks were wierd???:headbang:

Yeah, cuz the US has a monopoly on stupidity. :rolleyes:

That's not an alien.... It's something like an electric ray laying on it's back so you see it's belly.

You can tell it's in the electric ray family by the tail fins...

That pointed nose has got me a little stumped though... I'm working on that.

That seems to be the popular opinion.

Ironic, isnt it? ;)

The US is behind in the Stupidity Race? ZOMG, write your Congressmen! Call the President! We must close the Stupidity Gap!

Ahem. Yeah, it does a little tiresome.

Of course. Pity there was only one; might want to try out a few recipes. :)

Sorry, it was funny, sure. No offense, but you just haven't been here long enough to be as sick of that stuff as I am. Had to be killed to prevent the ignorant follow-ons that were bound to come. Consider it preventative euthanasia. ;)

That just begs the question...

What does alien taste like? :eek:

Chicken. :)

Like everything else, yup. ;)

Did anyone check the video out? It is an Arabic classical song playing in the background. Which I find odd. However interesting this video is check out some of the other videos on that same page. ;)

I must say Pravda has gone up in my estimation. As an entertainment sight, obviously...

I'm no expert, but don't rays usually only have one mouth?

A new species of ray would be a good find

it can sing!1! :eek: ;-)

wow, that is so like the Russians. Hey, dude, we got a dead alien. Dude yes, one word, BARBEQUE! *vodka!*

Yeah, cuz the US has a monopoly on stupidity. :rolleyes:

We used to, but then that damn Taft broke all the monopolies and trusts up.

So this is how irony dies.

As long as Americans keep posting stupid comments and showing themselves up for being humourless prigs, I'd say it will long continue.

Goddang it, will you stop bringing sense and rationality into this discussion?!
It was an alien, alright?

One of the men said that it was the most delicious dish he had ever eaten.
Of course, when you've drunken a bucket of vodka-flavoured industrial cleaner, monkey vomit would taste good.

Well, were glad ya'll 'preciate our fahn tune'd humuralities.

They should be executed for destroying educational materials.

You're absolutely right, I apologize most profusely...

Perhaps it’s a big cover-up over all these years, by the likes of well known alien supporters, that Jacque Cousteau and family and their ilk. ALL rays are really alien invaders, spying on us and waiting for their chance to strike... I mean really just look at those crazy things, alien life forms for sure, and what about that Crocodile Hunter? Killed by a ray, mere coincidence? I think not. :eek:

apology accepted. Just always remind yourself: reality and reasonableness are not permitted in NS General Forums.

You have a point about Irwin. Maybe he saw something he shouldn 't have. he knew too much and the rays had to kill him!
All this time we've been watching the skies, when really we should have been watching the seas!
