Lol, not the dark forest the bright asshole. How hilarious would it be if the universe was full of life but everyone thought we were assholes and were trying to avoid us.

I wrote a short story about that. The basic premise being all intelligent life is part of a concordium, and they monitor a planet when life is discovered to see if they're ready to join. But it took a disturbingly short period of time for them to determine we aren't fit. They said they'll quarantine our solar system and if we ever breach the boarders we'll be wiped out.

Not the best clip summarizing this episode, but South Park has a great take on this.
