I would not be surprised if aliens have been watching us and refusing to have anything to do with us, because we are absolute nutcases at the best of times.
@@kitchenjail3546 To be fair it wouldn't stay that way for long, humans adapt and learn very well(most of the time), if we get our hands on their tech we'll find out how it works and use it against them, we really only need to worry about whether they destroy the planet as an opening move
@@relicking9207 jesus crist man only destroy the planet you know for a fact they would have to make a massive blockade to stop us running and coming back with a vengeance.
@@Goathelix Fair, their best move would be to wipe out the entire solar system but I doubt anyone(other than humans) would do that if they have another option
Aliens: those other aliens destroyed a few planets, we showed them what could happen if we make an A bomb and use it. Other Aliens: the enemy destroyed a few continents on one of our colony worlds, so we told them we would use an A bomb if they kept going. Humans: they sunk a few ships so we dropped the sun on them TWICE. AND WE MADE MILLIONS MORE.
I think my favorite part is Species 1: keep pissing us off and we'll make it Species 2: keep pissing us off and we'll drop it Humanity: Keep pissing us off and we'll drop it - *again* -

When you are know for being amazing science, engineering, and philosophy. But you are also know for being terrifying deadly that walk through nuke fire like it is just another day at work. Yeah we paradox but hey we make it work
The way of how we can view our own species and see that we could be a plague on others, but at the same time how much we're willing to help. Also with the underlined element of human greed, which in general humans in mass have always had predominantly in the society that thrives. A very ugly thing greed but it helps push us sadly.
The stories I want to read in HFY Alien finds the Guinness book of world records. Aliens speaking how a human is both good luck and bad luck Human civilians helping to save an alien from its crashed ship by lifting it up. Aliens reaction to humans cuddling spaces most vicious beasts. Aliens realizing how unstoppable a human is. And lastly Aliens realizing why humans are so compassionate.
@@firestorm165 This is my idea of what happened. When the alien army arrived we were unprepared, we only had a few plantey defense weapons and a lot of civalins on the ground, so as our ships were being pushed back, someone had the idea to use mining nukes. And it worked, there shielding was just for standard solar radiation, not a mini sun in there face, so beagan a new arms race, one so that aliens never go to war with us again.
You think that space station is cool, wait until you see a deadnought got a rail gun that shoots train sized slugs as secondary armaments, and thrust system that lets it dance.
I’d read a book that was just humanity being humanity while aliens watched and got progressively more scared as we repeatedly did the impossible and curb stomped anyone who tried to stop us
The first 5 minutes, is one of the most unsettling and accurate ways to describe "earthers", and in the future to aliens humans are the same old never give up shit bags but we aren't aggressive or militaristic but everybody's still afraid of us...CAUSE WE CRAY AS ALL HELL HAHAHAHAHAAAA!
Shit, the battleplan for day 1 of WWIII was *TACTICAL NUKE THE LAND UNTIL IT ISN'T GREEN ANYMORE!* It is a great thing that the cold war happened the way it did...
As much as I love the humans are space orcs stuff, I have to wonder about the hypothetical aliens who are somehow blown away by the inevitable results of Darwin‘s 4 billion year corpse pile. I guess evolution is all peace and daisies where they come from?
This author never read the old saw; Hard times produce Hard Men, Hard men create good times, good times produce soft men, soft men bring about hard times.
“Humans Are Space Orcs” is one of the best things we ever came up with.
WE'Z SPACE OKRZ NOW BOYS! WAAAAAAGH!
More like space Skaven though...
@@Bidmartinlo [RAT WHEEZE]
In stellaris (a paradox game), i have to SMASH human civilization, for them to let the galaxy unify in peace
It really is, and it is accurate to you lot.

That is preferrable to us being hopelessly outmatched.

It only just occurred to me that I used the wrong background image for this.
Cloak and Dagger F
oof
I care not, hfy/humans are space orks time!
It’s ok because we see it in the feed
Cloak and Dagger
*Y* to Shame.

Funny thing is that we had to use it again in the same war

Insane
Normal
Peaceful
Agressive
Friendly
Terrifying
We've got it all, every fuckin side of the spectrum
You act as if one of those labels applies to the entire species. Nah, humanity has all of that among it's members.
I love the twist on Humans not as the vanilla medium between different strata but as the end on the Extreme scale
i love the stories told about humans from an alien perspective.
Me too
when aliens come to invade. send them these space orcs stories and tell them they are based off our history, we've got more
Makes me glad there are no humans near here.
Humans have space cathedrals!!!!
When you are know for being amazing science, engineering, and philosophy. But you are also know for being terrifying deadly that walk through nuke fire like it is just another day at work. Yeah we paradox but hey we make it work
"Once,, just once."
Sounds like us.

Also with the underlined element of human greed, which in general humans in mass have always had predominantly in the society that thrives. A very ugly thing greed but it helps push us sadly.
I like to think that we humans have been living on a planet so deadly that we've evolved to a point that other alien life is terrified of us
So we're the Space Dwarfs, nice
More like half dwarf-half orc
YAS, SPACE ORCS!
Brilliant, firewalkers sound radical, I imagine a slimmed down version of the Fallout Power armour.
I love these kinds of stories they are absolutely my favorites
I just imagine some alien posting this on the intergalctinet
Here's to those who don't know when to give up.
The stories I want to read in HFY
Alien finds the Guinness book of world records.
Aliens speaking how a human is both good luck and bad luck
Human civilians helping to save an alien from its crashed ship by lifting it up.
Aliens reaction to humans cuddling spaces most vicious beasts.
Aliens realizing how unstoppable a human is.
And lastly
Aliens realizing why humans are so compassionate.
Where do i find all that?
Avak that’s what I want to know
i like the the point of view these stories have
Every other Races: "Humans are fucking Insane."
Human: "Yep."
I don't know about the rest of you but I'd like details on what happened on that contested world that made everyone sh*t themselves
Humans used a WMD?
@@codedracticus3326 well obviously but like I said. I want details

@@codedracticus3326 yeah I can see that happening
I would imagine the word "exterminatus" would describe it, "glassing" would work too.
This is too good
Based humans

What was the name of that book? Kind of want to read it.
@@kleinnf67 Same here, sounds very interesting
That was stellar! You only seem to get better.

9:17 ahhh yes the Occupation of Shanxi
The dualism of humans, near pacifistic spiritual builders who see total nuclear war as a way to start the conflict not end it.
Shit, the battleplan for day 1 of WWIII was *TACTICAL NUKE THE LAND UNTIL IT ISN'T GREEN ANYMORE!*
It is a great thing that the cold war happened the way it did...
let's go hunting bois
I like the idea that Earth is a hell-planet. xD
Simply beautiful.
Wonder how long till this ends up on the /r/HFY subreddit.
Humanity FUCK YEAH!
Sounds like a reading of Billy Bob Space Trucker is in order.
Love those tales
Ok, took me a hot minute, but it was multiple stories, not just one.
Love this btw
Keep messing with us and will drop it a third time
This is fun. I like this.
To those who don't know when to quit. 🍻
Sounds like the narrator had his entire worldview about deathworlders shattered. First time?
Absolutely fabulous *LOL*
Duuuuude please keep doing HFY stuff your aweeeeesome with it, you can really feel the exasperation of the POV lmao
By armor do they mean skin
Of course we don't.
Keep pissing us off and we’ll drop it a third time, then send in the same guys who had it dropped on them twice before they stopped.
To any outsider...Humanity is fucking terrifying.
Wolf 259 nice reference
