A funny thing happened to me on the way to destroying the world. It started off as any regular morning. Powering up the generators. Checking the capacitors. Tuning the vortex dismantling calibrations. You know, normal stuff. I left the house to go for one final walk before hatching my master plan, and 5 minutes in, the weirdest thing happened. I was abducted by aliens. Not those scary looking ones from the James Cameron movie. Not even those silly android looking ones with the big heads. These aliens were beautiful. Captain Kirk would have been proud. They probed me until they couldn't probe any more, and strangely enough, I liked it. Once they finished their experiments, they beamed me back into my secret lab, where I had second thoughts about global destruction. The next time you see a silver flash in the sky, make sure to wave and say "Thanks, beautiful aliens". Thanks indeed.
