How would you know?
Any intelligence evolving on another world would be extremely unlikely to think or act like earthlings. How could you pretend to know what would motivate them?
If their society is sufficently advanced (or their people are just extremely long-lived), a little jaunt across, say, 10,000 lightyears might be no more than a trip to the corner store for you and me.
As for probing people's butts, well, that's just a goofy stereotype. Very few documented claims of alien abduction have anything like that in them. A great deal of them claim some sort of medical experimentation, but what's so odd about that? There's pretty much not a creature on this planet we haven't dissected and probed. If and when we move out into the stars, I would venture to say that we will continue to dissect and probe whatever we find.
"Get serious" is a pretty silly position. There's nothing to back it up. Lack of proof isn't proof. "I've never seen one so they don't exist," or "The government/media/my friends say they don't exist, so they don't exist," doesn't prove or disprove anything.

Well said.
I think someone weould have to be a total ignorant fuck to think that there is no extraterrestrial life out there.
Me personally, I think the human race are genetically engineered expirments of ET's.
