      Or is it more… whimsical?

        No, any vessel called The Mothership is definitely going to Lovetron.

    Next stop, Tigerlily Jones’ Starship Park, Disco and Sushi Bar.

      I wouldn’t put this past her – getting new recruits via flying saucer is Tigerlily’s style. The disco dance floor would be in the center of the saucer, of course, so they could boogie to Lovetron, wherever it is.

        Outside Detroit, but with a good water supply?

        Wouldn’t be the first time she showed up with a flying saucer.

          I thought I’d read the entire archive, Augiedawgie, but you keep linking to strips I don’t remember!

            Don’t feel too bad. I have read the entire archive at least 100 times (no, I didn’t actually keep track), and someone will occasionally link a strip that isn’t familiar to me.

      I dunno. “Greetings..Climb aboard the Mothership.” Doesn’t sound, well, funky enough for this ship to be from Lovetron.

        “Put a glide in your stride and a dip in your hip
        And come on up to the Mothership!”

        Does that work for y’all?

          Maybe some music from the Foo Fighters would help.

    “It that… is that a UFO”?
    “Is it an object?”
    “Uhh… yes?”
    “Is it flying?”
    “Yesss…?”
    “Can you identify it?”
    “No.”
    “Then it is, by definition, an unidentified flying object.”
    “…oh.”

      “You saw flashing lights moving in and out over the airport and you called them *unidentified* flying objects?”

        My wife has a PhD in astronomy and astrophysics. She operates a 3.5 meter telescope. That’s pretty much the answer she gives people. Just because it’s a UFO doesn’t mean it’s extraterrestrial.

        It’s pretty hard to identify planes at night. The writing on the tail is small and in a bad location for an observer on the ground, even during the day. (Though I guess with commercial flights, you could ID passing planes at midnight without going outside, as long as you had a web browser.)

        I once had a friend who insisted on the “ufo=aliens” thing. I used to throw random objects at his back and then explain that aliens were, by his definition, at fault.

      Reminds me of the story that Frank Herbert once said on a panel “Yes, I believe in unidentified flying objects. Please don’t hear that as anything else.” And, of course, everyone did.

      I saw a UFO in broad daylight once! It was big, square and silvery, and it wasn’t a spaceship unless the pilot was really, really drunk.

        I didn’t see one once.
        It manifested as a stationary cloud at very low altitude on an otherwise cloudless day.
        The wind was strong out of the south, as it often is in North Central Oklahoma.
        I say I didn’t see it because most people don’t classify a cloud as an “object”.

          If you could identify it as a cloud, then it’s not exactly “unidentified”. It could, however, be misindentified.

            Hence why they -didn’t- see one once.

        It’s been said that they have ray guns that zap you and make you forget you’ve seen them, so if you’ve never seen one you probably see them all the time.

          If they have ray guns that zap people and make them forget, where did the stories about the ray guns come from, I wonder?

      Half the time I see “UFO” I want to sound it out as ” oofow”

      The other half I read it like a normal person

        “I am a You-Foe. Is that the correct pronunciation?”

    • John Schilling

      If you can’t identify it, and you can’t touch it, then you can’t be confident that it is an object. “Unidentified Aerial Image” would be more appropriate.

      Conversely, you don’t need to know where it came from to identify it (though it helps).

      I don’t think Tigerlily would probe Renard.

      Pretty sure Whimsycorp would, though.
