It's overwhelming more likely that they are either quite primitive (somewhat less likely), or as far more advanced than we are as we are compare to the earthworm (somewhat more likely). There is almost no possibility of meaningful conversation much less bonhamie between humans and aliens.
Damn.
Way to destroy my imagination.
Fuck!
