I think the space aliens are trying to communicate with me

I see it everywhere–little hidden messages, secrets attempts at communication which are clearly meant only for me. They’re all around me, really. Written on scraps of paper, scrawled on the sides of buildings…I mean, what else can it be?

But I can’t figure out what they’re trying to say. Take this message, for instance, which the aliens left for me on my way to a client’s site a few days back:

What does it mean? What’s the significance of the mysterious number “452,” and where do they want me to take them to? I wish space aliens were less cryptic.

  1. It could be so much worse! leaves enormous signs for me posted all over the city with threatening messages!

    The first one, a couple of years back, said “What do you want on your tombstone?” I knew it was from because it had huge pizza on it as well, and everyone knows that pizza is ‘s favorite food. I was alarmed by this overt act of hostility, and have since refused to even look at any of the other signs. Instead I retaliated by starting an affair with his wife. He responded in kind, and then escalated by teaching his dog to jump on my balls.

    And thus the secret war between us continues, like a perverse game of chess…

    But I digress. Getting back to your point, “452” is your designation in the aliens’ threat database. I’ve enlisted their aid in my not-nearly-so-secret war against you, and thus far am less than impressed by their schemes. Most of what they know about our society comes from watching TV, and thus they woefully underestimate human intelligence. Their hope was that they could simply goad you into stealing a traffic sign, and then get you arrested by Homeland Security as a terrorist.

    Stupid aliens. They make terrible henchmen.

    • Yeah, I know what you mean. It is tough to find good henchmen these days, isn’t it? It’s gotten so bad around here that I’ve had to resort to converting my archnemesis to the Dark Side and taking him on as an apprentice in order to find good help. *sigh*
