Stuck on Earth with the humans. That's OK. I like humans. I like their cats better. Not the real ALF, just parody, all respect to Paul Fusco and Alien Productions. Mastodon: @theolalfer@tenforward.social Author's personal account: @john-pilgrim.bsky.social

// Back when we were going at it with Iraq, I delivered newspapers, and when gas shot up I wondered if I was making even a dime doing it. I needed that extra money but man. I feel bad for anyone whose livelihood is dependent on prices at the pump.

But wait! I have a raincheck from the fall where I had to pay for an hour I didn't use because the clock moved back. Doesn't that count for anything?

The secret to being ALF:

Never.
Stop.
Eating.

You humans should see a doctor before attempting this lifestyle, though.

That can't be true! Willie gave me a whole bag of Funyuns and you must have them because all I see is an empty bag of... oh.

Uh, you didn't want any, right?

// I've had this song running through my head the last few nights but could not remember what it was. Thankfully I've found it. I don't really remember the show, but I do the song. Is that weird? youtu.be/1gi5bZgcR5I?...

As I believe @entspockhere.bsky.social put it, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the mew.

Good, because every time I've looked at one it's never a big deal. It's the OTHER end they should warn you about because major yuck.

// I know I'm older but on my Atari, the go to game was Adventure. Though to be fair, even it could get boring. On my PC, my game was Civ II, and it hardly ever got boring. I played that more than I care to admit.
