Naturally, the internet delivered. Here are some of the best (and weirdest) answers:

Top Picks to Impress (or Confuse) the Aliens:

• A big-screen TV in HD → “Look, we can stream The Bachelor in 4K.”
• Mr. Rogers’ Neighbourhood → Because who better to introduce humanity than the nicest man ever? 🧥
• OxyClean → Proof that no stain is safe, even intergalactic ones.
• A baby → “This is how we reproduce. Also, please don’t abduct.” 👶
• That old ‘going down the stairs behind the couch’ trick → Our peak physical comedy.
• A bag of weed → “You guys stressed from space travel? We got you.” 🌿
• Tacos → Honestly, the most convincing reason to keep Earth alive. 🌮
• Football → Because nothing says “advanced species” like smashing into each other over a ball.

So, what’s your pick? Are we introducing aliens to the glory of maple syrup and Timbits, or are we going all-in with Netflix and chill? 🍁📺
