ENTER TO WIN: A booq Mamba shift L Laptop bag
THANK YOU WE HAVE OUR WINNER! CONGRATS TO FAITHFUL MACENSTEIN READER MICHAEL. THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.
Man, do I envy you. Ever since my last laptop bag broke about 2 months ago, I have been using the girliest of girly laptop backpacks (an old one the Bride of Macenstein wasn’t using anymore) to carry around my precious MacBook Pro. I only WISH I could enter my own contest and win this MUCH cooler $149 Mamba Shift L from booq. I mean, LOOK at this thing! It could just as easily be an alien egg pod sent here to destroy humanity as a comfortable means to safely carry your 13-17 inch laptop (and pretty much anything else you own) to and from work/school.

To Enter: Speaking of alien pods (and since I just watched “The Thing” last night) to enter simply leave us a comment below telling us, What is the Coolest Alien in the history of Sci-Fi? The obvious choice is Admiral Ackbar, but we’ll entertain other suggestions. (Your answer has no effect on your chance of winning, nor does buying me something from my birthday list).
Contest open to US and UK readers only. Contest ends Sunday, March 4th at 11:59PM. Good luck!
Mork from Mork and Mindy
I have to say Predator.
Gotta go with Q from Star Trek; can’t get cooler than controlling the universe.
Dr. Zoidberg!
ALF – nuff said.
ET
it has to be ALF!
Alf
JAR JAR BINX!
Queen Amidala- Natalie Portman 😛
The dancing alien from Spaceballs! “Hello my baby!”
Meep, from Phineas and Ferb ’cause he rides a really cool ship.
I’m going with Predator myself…..such a great movie too!
Species 8472… for they just f*** the Borg, while no one else does.
Queue X-Files theme music…Doc’s bathroom has aliens…you want proof…look at the Birthday list…. between the “Israeli Civilian Gas Mask w/ Nato Filter”, “Side of Tank Toilet Paper Holder” and “Quilted Northern Bath Tissue Soft and Strong Double Roll, 12 Count”.
Roger, from American Dad. And his lovely red hair.
Ookla the mock from Thundarr the Barbarian is clearly the coolest. First of all his name was actually taken from the phonetic pronunciation of UCLA and he has all kinds of obscure street cred from Gen X geeks. Finally, no other Sci-Fi character can be credited with killing so many wizards in a single season of the show. POW!
🙂
Excellent choice, despite him being a Wookie and Thundar having a lightsaber.
– The Doc
Dr Dick Solomon – third rock from the sun!
The alien from Aliens has always been the coolest – and scariest – in my opinion. Acid for blood and nearly indesctructible.
‘Six’ from Battlestar Galactica … Very HOT!!!
The “prawns” from District 9.
Leeloo from 5th Element!
Superman of course, from the planet Krypton.
Yoda.
Predator!
Leila from Futurama… Hoooottt
ROSIE FROM THE JETSONS
Max, Flight of the Navigator
The Doctor – From Doctor Who.
Hands down it has to be: Sarris from Galaxy Quest
Mr Spock from Star Trek
Paul
I still am a big fan of the original Predator.
Spock – you can’t go wrong with intelligent life that actually is prompted by intelligence…
Star Trek Borg Species 8472 from Fluidic Space. You have to be cool if the Borg can’t assimilate you.
Without a doubt Godzilla!!
My favorite alien would have to be… Any of the Martians from Mars Attacks.
I would say the coolest alien are any of the aliens from district 9. just super cool looking and a very well done movie.
Anna from V.
Spock of course. Totally Chill!
Has to be Paul, one of the funniest and most entertaining characters ever
Predator. Or ET. You know. They’re both pretty badass.
Might I win ?
I would say Stu from Pixar short Lifted : http://www.pixar.com/shorts/lift/lift_1.html
Otherwise Kim Jong Il would be a good second option (he made his interstellar voyage to another planet to fix things there) 😛
Alf
Yoda
Zoidberg from Futurama!
The alien girls from dude where’s my car
Sheldon Cooper. His mannerisms, intelligence and lack of social grace….
Gordon Shumway of the planet Melmac. “Mmm that tastes just like cat.”
Yes, ALF, the Alien Life Form, what were you, born after the millennium?
Kids these days…
