District 9 Dinner Party

Butter Prawns

Menu item: Alien Babies sautéed in butter

Of course if the aliens from District 9 (pejoratively known as prawns) were real, I would never eat their young, no matter how delicious they might be when fried. In fact, I might even adopt one, because that adorable little shrimp from the movie brought out the mothering instinct in me more than any human infant ever could.

Christopher's Son from District 9

If your heart didn't break during this scene, you are an evil cyborg.

But for the record, just about anything brings out the mothering instinct in me more than a human infant. I would adopt any of the following aliens before a human: ET, CJ7, Stitch, a wookie, a Hynerian, one of the guinea pig-eating lizard aliens from V, a Sontaran, and hell, maybe even a facehugger:

Facehugger Bust

That list is by no means exhaustive. Human babies have no power over me!!!
