Humans are the weird ones: Toilets

What if the aliens don't have toilets? What if they have a cleaner and better way to dispose of... Stuff? What if they don't even dispose of said stuff? Imagine how awkward it would be to have to explain an alien what that funny fountain was for. -Oh, human Betty, you have a beautiful house! I like this small white room! But... What is this fountain for? -That... That's a toilet. -What is it for? -Well, we... We use it for... -Human Betty? Are you ok? -We crap in there, ok? -You what? Why are you red? Human Betty? -Here. Have this book. It has the answers. And whatever you do, don't drink from those fountains. Ever. Or worse. Imagine getting assigned to go on a spaceship with said aliens and you only realize they do not have toilets when it's already TOO LATE.

Humans Are The Weird Ones: Fandoms

I have seen a lot of "humans are the weird ones" posts, and I thought I should contribute a little, because those are just awesome and I want to be part of that too. Humans do weird stuff. They are definitely the strangest creatures ever. Everyone knows that. But one day, an alien finds out that there is more weirdness than what they originally thought. Xih'Zaq has been living on Earth for a year. She believes she has seen everything. Humans are weird, scary and the nicest rude species she has ever met. They are random and funny and good and wicked. Basically humans are like a "mistery salad". You have to eat it, and you pray it tastes good. Even though humans do not support cannibalism. Or at least it's what she thinks. The blue Eolph enters a bus (one of those things that carry humans back and forth and that seems like it is going to blow up because it's so crowded) and she sees a human. She is standing (there are no free seats) in the middle of the crowd, wearing a shirt. Xih'Zaq learnt human English before she came to Earth. She can read what the shirt says. "Eat the rude". The rude?, Xih'Zaq thinks. She believed that "rude" was an adjective to describe someone or something impolite... Is "rude" food? Or is the shirt implying that one should eat the people who are rude? Why would someone wear a shirt like that? The girl is talking to another human. Xih'Zaq leans closer, in order to see any other detail that might be useful. Turns out the other human female is wearing a shirt with words, too (what is it with humans and words on shirts?). "I am SHER locked". The poor Eolph is unable to understand. Sherlocked? Is the human locked by a Sher? Or is a sherlock a different kind of lock? Is there a sherkey? She decides she will search the human Internet, even though she isn't familiar with it. Perhaps there is in fact a logical explanation for this... Or not.
