@qazmatron This one is abridged (something I don't like), whereas the other version is just thoroughly (and pointlessly) paraphrased (something I really don't like, and don't understand). Also the scene added in the other version, where one of the aliens kills the human, well.. it seems contradictory to the alien's attitudes.
In case anyone is interested this is from a story called "Alien/Nation" by Terry Bisson, first published in /Omni/ in 1991.

This version of "They're Made Out Of Meat" SUCKS SUCKS SUCKS because it is abridged (and other reasons).
For a complete version with acceptable performance, see v-9t9BIBLKw

@TheOriginalEntz I didn't write or direct this. I'm just complimenting the people involved.
Oh, and I love it when people make statements that sound like facts which can't be verified.

@Dipstikk We;re infantile because we consider fun acts like pressing up against a window stupid. What ever happened to having fun? That is why we are infantile.. we're the most stuck up and prudish species in the known universe also..

I love how the actual humans in this diner are busy acting like total idiots while the extraterrestrials go on about what stupid meat piles we are. Case in point:
"The brain does the thinking. The meat."
*A woman slams into the window by their table, her face pressed against the glass and her cheeks full of air.*
I love that. It puts a lot of perspective on how infantile our species is by telling the story through the perspective of the aliens.
