Yesterday evening, Twitter users up and down the coast of California tweeted that they saw a very fast, very bright flash in the sky. Some say it was a meteor that broke up into several pieces; others say it was the beginning of an alien invasion. The latter might have been smoking something.
I saw that meteor in the sky tonight! How cool. I thought it was the beginning of fireworks…

Nursing baby down to sleep in #LongBeach, look out the window, see a #meteor flying through the sky. Bright white sparking streaking flash.

Tens of thousands of people record hitting one another in the goddamned face on Vine, yet no one captured this meteor/alien invasion in CA?

Of course, we at Twitchy will continue to speak out against illegal immigration. If, however, last night’s aliens came here legally, then we welcome our new galactic alien overlords.
