Well the ships are purple b/c of the metal they use(Hint hin Its purple) And purple is an alien color. And if its not their armor, it might be their skin. They might wonder, why the hell are these humans beige?

Ah, but how do you know that plants on the covenant homeworld aren't purple?

  • 06.26.2004 7:42 PM PDT

[color=white]A few years from now, Prince (the purveyor of purple) leaves our planet for deep space.
On the journey, after learning the secret of immortality, Prince morphs into an alien being (those we will soon learn are "Prophets") and creates an alien coalition, or "Covenant," to return to the part of the galaxy that ostracized him and his music throughout the late 80s, the 90s, and into the 21st century.
Bent on the destruction of the human race (because, really, in the year 2552, no one alive still likes his music (o.k., maybe Marty O'Donnell does, but he's in hibernation)), Prince returns with his Covenant armada, playing his ungodly music through massive invisible speakers, not realizing that sound doesn't carry in a vacuum (which, when he realizes it, makes him even madder).
MC eventually realizes the source of the Covenant threat and has to travel back in time to try and capture some early 80s Minneapolis-area music fans in an attempt to make peace with Prince before our world is glassed. William Shatner makes an appearance somewhere in there, too, as I recall.

How's that?[/color]

Maybe that's why they hate MC so much.
it's like: "woort worrt woort grrr wort aaah wortdodort"
translation: 'Damn it's that stupid green mofo again, let's blast his butt!'

I'm a really big guy and in a metal band and my favorite color is purple. And if you saw me up close... you sing a different tune. Calling the color purple -blam!- upsets me. Purple is a mix of red and blue so shut up.

[color=purple]Um... No one here mentioned the color purple being "-blam!-" in their posts--well, gCypher kind of did. I don't think it was an intentional offense.
If you're talking about my post--it was a joke, for the enjoyment of those who enjoy jokes for the sake of humor.
If my joke offended you, I apologize. Don't take it so personally.
It's a color. No one's stopping you from loving it.[/color]

My post was also meant for humor. I didn't mean to offend you by making you think that I was offended by you. I'm sorry also.
