General / Off-Topic Local councillor fathered alien child

[The Land]

Not sure how much this counts as astronomy but:

http://www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/ne...uncillor_claims_to_have_fathered_alien_child/

"A LABOUR politician has defended his beliefs in extra-terrestrial life - after claiming to have fathered a child with an alien.

Married father-of-three Simon Parkes, who represents Stakesby on Whitby Town Council, said his wife had rowed with him after revealing he had a child called Zarka with an alien he refers to as the Cat Queen.

The 53-year-old driving instructor said he has sexual relations with the alien about four times a year."

Umm ... I ummm ... uhhhh .... *cough* (looks about) ... boy it's getting hot in here .... Ummm

Sorry, not this Alien

I have never been to Whitby ... who is this guy again? ... Simon Parkes? ... ah ... umm ... maybe ... I do take people to my spacecraft up in orbit

Let's see what else the article says ... 9ft ... eight fingers ... wow these reporters get their facts wrong, don't they? ... I'm 12ft tall, 6ft wide and I have 57 fingers, each one tastes a different Heinz variety flavour when I lick them.

Yeah, I've had nights like that. A few drinks, she looks nice, back to her place... and then in the morning she's hideous and surrounded by felines.

Councillor Parkes, who also claims his "real mother" is a 9ft green alien with eight fingers

Isn't having eight fingers considered normal? That seems like an odd thing to mention.

I don't think the guy is mad, just very deluded.
Sigh* humans today.

 

[Mobius]

curse you all none believers, happens to me all the time.

Way too much info, Alien!

It is the lights of the spaceship behind him ?

:S

The thing about eight fingers ... nearly everyone says ten fingers and toes ... but the truth is, you have eight fingers and two thumbs (barring birth defects and accidents), yet people never think of their hands like that.

Try it on someone, ask first "How many fingers do you have?" if they say ten, ask them how many thumbs they have, then point it out to them.

Yeah! Alien abductions are all fun and games, until an accident happens. I can imagine you submitting to a DNA test. "The DNA of the child is definitely human, but this DNA here.. it tastes of syrupy sweet tomato!

at least it's relevant to science fiction

Frontier - Can we add this guy to the naming database, along with his alien wife?

Actually it's not incorrect for thumbs to be counted as "fingers" -

"each of the four slender jointed parts attached to either hand (or five, if the thumb is included)"

"any of the five terminating members of the hand : a digit of the forelimb; especially : one other than the thumb"

 

[Alien]

If thumbs are fingers why are they called thumbs and not fingers?

 

[jabokai]

If thumbs are fingers why are they called thumbs and not fingers?

If arms are arms and legs are legs, why are they called limbs?!

Depends on the context. If I tell one of my minions to chop off all of a prisoner's fingers then I would be sorely disappointed to find they'd been left with two perfectly good thumbs.
