New forms of life

Post Reply New Topic

I just discovered a container of leftovers that got shoved to the back of the fridge -- probably been back there for a couple of months. Perhaps I'll just leave it there and eventually it will shove the door open and crawl out on its own accord.

If you did that, it'll probably try to break up the cupboards.

What I would do: self-inoculate yourself against all sorts of diseases, bring a nose plug, and just throw the crap away in a plastic bag.

Yeah, I didn't take into consideration it might cause some serious destruction. Still, I'm curious. What to do!

I would go with the noseplugs and the plastic bag (seal-able, in case he decides to escape).

It might just absorb you and take on your form in order to infiltrate, while it multiplies, until it has spawned sufficient numbers to take over as the planet's dominant species.

Right, this whole thing could get dicey. I'd better get it out there!

Just don't let it attain sentience, grow appendages and scuttle away with your fridge like a hermit crab...
