Summary "I'm a Stranger Here Myself" by Mack Reynolds is a science fiction short story written in the early 1960s. The narrative unfolds in the vibrant and eclectic setting of Tangier, showcasing the interplay of diverse cultures and characters within the cosmopolitan city. The story satirically explores themes of alien life and human behavior, as two characters engage in a conversation filled with humor and speculative ideas about extraterrestrial observers. The plot centers around the protagonist, Rupert, and his acquaintance Paul, who share a discussion at a café in Tangier. As they sip beer and converse casually, their dialogue evolves into a humorous exchange about the possibility of aliens observing Earth from a distance. They ponder the chaotic state of humanity, contrasting advanced alien civilizations with the challenges faced by modern societies. In a whimsical twist, they even jest about their own identities as aliens studying human culture, leading to insights about human nature and the absurdities of life. The story is both a humorous portrayal of human existence and a witty thought experiment on the nature of observation and alien life. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
