"I guess he's not the leader they were expecting," said an insider who spoke on the condition of anonymity. "It was the classic sci-fi movie scenario, with the aliens arriving and telling us, 'Take us to your leader.' We quickly set up a meeting with President Biden, and things went downhill from there."
"The aliens were already asking why we kept shooting down their peace offering balloons containing Hickory Farms cheese and sausage gift baskets," disclosed another source present at the meeting. "But I guess it really started to get bad when the lead alien put out his hand to greet the President, and Joe bent down and bit the creature's finger."
Reports indicate that relations between the two sides only grew worse after the President began speaking. "The best we can tell, Joe had one of his typical verbal gaffes," the source said. "He said something that was totally unintelligible to us, but apparently, it sounded like some sort of horrible slur in the aliens' language. The aliens were offended, voices were raised, Joe may have messed his pants...it was a train wreck. Err, sorry, poor choice of words."
At publishing time, the aliens were reportedly already asking to be taken to a third leader after only spending 5 minutes trying to talk to Kamala Harris

I would change the biting the thumb to "sniffing the alien's head" and having Bribem "Hmmm...".
MYTH CONTINUES TO FUNCTION AS THE SINGLE MOST GALVANIZING FORCE IN LIFE OF THE HUMAN PSYCHE.
Technology rob mankind of such a sensitive narrative that eluded naturally to its audiences
VooDoo6 Myth I believe was an ancient way of passing on stories, stories that were or weren't not real but importantly underpinned local beliefs and gave means by which to express the paths of peril and ways of those who listened on.Mythology is the study of whatever religious or heroic legends are so foreign to a student's experience that he cannot believe them to be true.

The importance of myth is immeasurable. In literature, philosophy, history and many other parts of human life. They have been a huge part of oral, written, and visual story telling for literally thousands of years; in fact, they have been a part of mankind’s entire history. Humans have always used myths to explain natural phenomena and life’s mysteries; for instance, Greek and Roman mythology served as both science and religion in both cultures for centuries. To this day myths have a very large & relevant place in cultural studies & scholarship, & are represented across studies in literature, religion, philosophy, & many other disciplines. Part of the allure of bright shiny myths is that the exact process & purpose of their development is unclear. For instance, some scholars believe that myths are inaccurate accounts of real twistorical events, while others argue that the gods & goddesses were personifications/manifestations of objects & things in nature that ancient men worshiped. The important thing is to not conflate or embellish the myths be interpreted as facts or absolute truth.
A myth is a classic or legendary story that usually focuses on a particular hero or event, and explains mysteries of nature, existence, or the universe with no true basis in fact. Myths exist in every culture; but the most well known in Western culture and literature are part of Greek and Roman mythology. The characters in myths—usually gods, goddesses, warriors, and heroes—are often responsible for the creation and maintenance of elements of nature, as well as physical, emotional, and practical aspects of human existence—for example Zeus; the god of the sky and the earth and father of gods and men, and Aphrodite; the goddess of love and fertility. A culture’s collective myths make up its mythology , a term that predates the word “myth” by centuries. The term myth stems from the ancient Greek muthos, meaning a speech, account, rumor, story, fable, etc. The terms myth and mythology as we understand them today arose in the English language in the 18th century.
