Aw c'mon, it's just RedEye. Funny stuff meant to annoy and entertain. This line's actually pretty good: "It's not that I don't believe in UFOs, it's just that I don't need the unknown to complicate matters." That might seem to cyncial, but let's say everyone did take UFO reports very, very seriously. Exactly what would that actually provide us in terms of benefits to either society or to individuals? A few people finding they aren't ridiculed anymore when they report a sighting? Nice, but if a person these days says who they're backing for president, or even which team they like in the playoffs, someone's right there to call them "worse than Hitler" again anyway.
