The UFO/alien abduction thread

I'm guessing ILX isn't really the kind of place where people who claim to have had experiences with this sort of thing hang out. is this a fair assessment?

but perhaps you have friends and loved ones who claim to?

i would like to hear some wacko, implausible anecdotes...perhaps i am putting people off posting by saying this? whatever....

I once walked home, and the journey seemed to only take ten minutes, but when I got home THREE HOURS had pased, and under hypnosis I discovered that I had been ABDUCTED BY SEX ALIENS and got to hang out with Perez De Cuellar and 12 foot lizards.

i've never seen a ufo or been abducted by an alien. but i firmly believe i have psychic abilities. is that wacko and implausible enough for you?

I recently found out about sleep paralysis, and it has been posited that this goes some way to explaining a lot of the alien abductions (and visions of ghosts, etc) that people say happen by being paralysed in bed and seeing a person/thing come and grab them.

There's a thread about all that here:

Sleep Paralysis - Plain Weird or REALLY WEIRD!?

psychic abilities? you seem like a real wack job all right. i know you probably don't really believe it though, yr probably just saying it to get attention and draw your mind off your mundane existence.

Jody is not a wack job. Her claim is highly improbable, but so is my claim that Sandanista is a great Clash album.

two weeks pass...

Explains it all:

The reason I bring this up, is that last week The Sun runs another UFO story, a full front-pager this time, on UFOs being sighted over a military base. This made me think two things: firstly, that’s a few slow news weeks we’ve been getting. Secondly, that’s nicely timed, considering there’s a new X-Files movie coming out in a few weeks’ time.

The last thought chilled me. Really. Because The Sun is owned by Rupert Murdoch, who in turn owns Fox- who produce the X-Files.

goole, Wednesday, 23 July 2008 19:19 (seventeen years ago)

several years ago i was asking my dad if he had heard of Art Bell (my dad was a ham radio enthusiast, and apparently so is Art Bell)...my dad was very familiar with his name, but was unaware of his radio show. I told him that it was this goofy call-in show where people discuss ufo's and other "unexplained phenomena", and my dad launched into a story about his days in the Air Force, and how he and some of the other guys would occasionally see stuff come up on the radar that bore no resemblance whatsoever to any plausibly existing technology...like vehicles which traveled at ridiculously high speeds or in bizarre patterns and so forth. There seemed to be no reasonable explanation for this stuff, and he said that his superiors professed bafflement as to whatever it could be.

I thought it was interesting to hear this story from him, because he is a very practical-minded person, who had never evidenced any interest in ufo's or "Coast to Coast AM"-type crap before

Vatican: It's OK to believe in aliens
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24598508/

I can see myself believing in aliens. I read books on strange phenomenon, love the X-Files, and I would absolutely love to have a UFO experience. I think there is much more to reality than you see in daily life. But it just never happened, I've never had a personal experience with anything anywhere close to a UFO, so I don't believe in them.

Orbs?

That "energy orb" shot is nothing mysterious--it's what a point of light looks like on a zoomed-in and out of focus camera.

Not saying that the actual drones aren't a mystery, just that posting a blurry dot as if it were a real object is not helping.

Hideous Lump, Saturday, 14 December 2024 15:55 (one year ago)

Wouldn’t a professional camera operator be aware of that?

1. I think there is a panic and a lot of what is bein seen is planes and drones
2. the government is being weirdly silent on this for unknown reasons.
3. if it was supposed to be some secret military exercises why are they so bright and conspicuous over new jersey
4. there could be something weird ALSO going on despite the hoaxers and fools
5. what if there has been a lot of UAP stuff going on and the drones are supposed to distract and obfuscate this and provide a cover story because the govt has to control over uaps

Here's the community note on Larry Hogans video.

Last night, beginning at around 9:45 pm, I personally witnessed (and videoed) what appeared to be dozens of large drones in the sky above my residence in Davidsonville, Maryland (25 miles from our nation’s capital). I observed the activity for approximately 45 minutes.

xpost: If that is the case then they don't care about us killing ourselves (see: every other war situation where they don't intervene), just the nuclear destruction part. This may suggest there's a greater purpose for humanity, like maybe warming up the planet until it's hot enough for the reptilian overlords to come kill us all and live here.

StanM, Monday, 16 December 2024 15:59 (one year ago)

Trump knows that UFOs never fail to arouse public curiosity and this applies far beyond the small community of cranks who are obsessed with this stuff. For the majority of the public it's entertainment, but Trump also knows that part of his appeal is that he's an entertainer, so it's a WIN for him.

anything to change the topic from Epstein

Cattedrale metropolitana di Santa Maria de Episcopio, Friday, 8 May 2026 17:24 (four weeks ago)

the sage has spoken

Former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) on Friday called the Pentagon’s release of documents related to unidentified anomalous phenomena (UAPs) and UFOs “shiny object propaganda” as the Trump administration wages “foreign wars.”

Greene, a former Trump ally, said she “really” does not “care about the UFO files.”

“I just don’t,” the former lawmaker wrote on the social platform X. “I’m so sick of the ‘look at the shiny object’ propaganda while they wage foreign wars, let rapist and pedophiles run free, and ruin the value of our dollar. Unless they roll out live aliens and test demo UFOs or actually admit what we know this really is then I have way better things to do on this Friday.”
