The council of aliens met at alien headquarters.
We are an advanced race but that poor race of humans is not. They are sad, silly, and stupid.
So the council of aliens passed a resolution.
We will save the human race from itself.
And so, using all of their advanced technology, the aliens constructed their gift to humanity.
And fired it in a rocket to earth.
And thus, I was born.
AND THAT'S CHAPTER ONE OF MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY.
BURN CHAPTER TWO.
DON'T MOCK OUR GIFT!!
