I like the way this man thinks.

>implying I don’t want any of thingpone’s tentacles crammed down my throat or my eye sockets to be forcefully loved.

The Thing is fictional creature so… what’s the differnece How it’s portrayed?  
Especially in fanarts?

It will only ever treat you as a piece of meat….( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

@Karna
 
Yes, more reason to destroy it!

Usually in the movies, who thinks that the monster is good and not bad, is the first to die….:P

@Background Pony #06BA
 
Literally doesn’t matter. We’ve been over this. The nature of a Thing’s existence means that any ‘nice’ personality only applies to a particular mass of Thing cells that has developed it. Any spilled blood or shed bits of biomass lack the ability to have a nice personality, and will develop as a Thing concerned only with their own survival and propagation, as the Things in the movie.
 
Things aren’t allowed into open system environments if you want that system to contain any species other than Things.

@Maxis  
Thingpone is different. Unless you tick her off, she’s as nice as can be.

@Karna
 
The planet Earth’s people fully supports your post, and as gift you receive 3 flamethrowers and much, much dynamite, for a single purpose: destroy The Thing!

The Thing’s actual personality is irrelevant to whether or not trying to befriend it is acceptable, because on the most fundamental level, The Thing is self-betraying.
 
Even if the large mass of ‘Thing’ that makes up what you first meet is a perfectly nice individual, if it accidentally gets cut or whatever, the drop of blood that spills lacks the intelligence to be so. All that Blood-Thing will care about is assimilation and survival. Given The Thing’s innate abilities, you can say goodbye to your planet’s biosphere if that blood drop lands somewhere where it isn’t immediately contained or destroyed. As seen in the hot-wire test, tiny parts like that will act automatically and betray the whole in favor of self-preservation in that state.
 
Thus, even if The Thing is nice, it cannot be allowed on your planet. Ever.

@gittonsxv
 
I have serious doubts about that….:/

@Maxis  
with the power of friendship i know it is possible to make her nice!

@Background Pony #E995
 
here’s why
 
looks well this series of pictures of your “harmless” little beast, then we’ll talk again….>:)
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thingy is harmless though. Why would you burn her? :(

but all she wants is your love

These poor savage things will never embrace salvation.

Hard to argue with that sentiment.
