This feels like an excellent Hitchhikers Guide short story. A definite reminder that a good sci-fi story doesn't need to take itself too seriously.
@volkerkamin
This could have gone much worse, but fortunately, the humans woke up with access to fresh coffee.
@playmotion.trailer
there is still a positive sci-fi ? NO post-apocalyptic horror ? no angst ? THANK YOU !
@peribabbles8603
So surprisingly comforting for once humans not to be the evil, malevolent, inherently-flawed beings... This was actually refreshing!
@saeklin
I always liked the concept of humans being the eldritch monsters. "They breathe pure oxygen and don't rust! Their skin shields them from deadly UV radiation! They have not just two but FIVE senses that we are aware of! They can emit sounds of 130db at 3khz! They have some sort of symbiotic bond with other creatures they call 'dogs' which we think may be bioengineered weapons."
@SirDeady
That was an absolute gem. I don't even know how I came across it, but it left me giggling like a child.

What I find is the best part is the fact that we developed a Unified Theory of Everything, dismissed it for being not interesting enough, and then formulated not one, but several solutions that solve the whole thing in more pleasing ways.

This is a possible solution to the Fermi paradox. We dont see aliens anywhere because we are the predecessors, the ancient ones, The Ones that came first.
@Alien_Chronicles_Scifi
I love how this story makes humanity feel both mysterious and terrifying. The idea that we’re something beyond comprehension to other species is just so cool. Definitely one of the best sci-fi narratives I’ve come across! 29:12

There is a YouTube rule that any HFY story must use the word crystalline at least six times, or it will be deleted.

This is SOOOO good! Loved it! "They're just complaining endlessly about everything!" Hahahahahahahahahahahhaahhaa "Mood Lighting." Bwhahahaha! This reminds me SO much of Douglas Adams! Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!
@carpandrei7493
I stumbled across this story by accident. Loved it! It was actually refreshing to see humas described as the "top dog" and in a positive way. Keep up the good work!
@arockalypsgaming
Feel like this would be a wonderful sequel to Hitchhiker's Guide series.

Imagine waking up, and all the coffee is gone. All of it. Everywhere. Even tea drinkers would be pissed.

Quantum cats. Universal wifi. Interspecies meme war. So cute.

@Grumpum
Bravo! A brilliantly amusing tale that I shall remember fondly with a grin as I drink my coffee every morning for the remainder of my life. An interesting take on what "The dominant species" would be like if they only had coffee and pizza. A most wonderfully enjoyable tale. Thank you.
@java65-65
And so, the universe discovers humanity's penchant for meetings. Oh, and our absolute addiction to coffee...and pizza.

As someone who struggles with sleep, i can confirm this. When I'm sleeping, I'm peaceful. When awake, I'm cheerful and agreeable to all, unless provoked. It's the in-between that's worrying, it's utter chaos, terms like rank, friend, or foe are inconceivable. My slumber has been utterly destroyed, and all within my reach shall know it, shall feel it!
