I think BvBPL's point is that you can say literally anything and it would be "proof" that alien life doesn't exist, if we follow the logic in the OP's article. E.g. if aliens are so advanced then they'd have blown up a sun by now probably - why haven't we seen evidence of that? If aliens exist and they enjoyed chocolate as much as we did then they surely would have invaded our planet and taken all our chocolate -- but they haven't. The existence of chocolate on this planet is therefore evidence that there are no aliens anywhere. If aliens exist then they probably invented spheres, which means they would probably have really liked football. Given that football has become so commercialised already, it stands to reason that an even more advanced alien civilisation would have commercialised it to the point where entire planets would be branded in the football colours of the patron team of that planet. Why have we seen no evidence of football-branded planets? Surely this must be taken as evidence that aliens don't exist.
etc
Ah, I see, point missed again, sorry.
