Aliens from who knows where have arrived to our solar system. They contact us with the intention of peaceful interaction between species. You are the ambassador selected as a liason between humanity and aliens, to learn from each other as much as you can.

What would be the first advice or warning about humanity you would give to the aliens to ease the interaction between species?

It doesnt necessarily have to be something negative about humans, it could be just a detail that the aliens have to keep in mind when dealing with humans. This advice or warning would become the basis from which the interaction between humans and aliens would be built upon.

My advice would be that humans will disagree and argue about everything with each other, being very individualistic (thats totally a word). Even if humanity would perhaps at the start interact with good will and sincere intention of mutually beneficial interaction, further down the line when the alliance has grown more solid, they will likely start arguing and disagreeing again with the rest of the galaxy.

I would pretty much reassure them that a single human or a aspect/ trait of a human does not repersent all of humanity. In another word, we are not a-hole so please don't wipe us out!

Take some time to get to know us, we're not as messed up as what you may believe (at least, not all of us)

My advice? Stay away for now, we got some shit we really need to sort out right now. Once we get our various political, economical, and social issues relatively settled we'll probably be alright, till then just discreetly steal the first and second season of MLP:FiM and run back home.

I'd just tell them there are "benefits" to a species being completely insane and walk away.

I'd probably have to point out that despite our advancements, the average human is little more than an animal that can write and occasionally makes a rational decision.

Try invading Russia first, they'll go down easiest (kekekeke)

edit: (didn't read the OP before posting)
Don't talk to Americans.
We've got plenty of open space in Canada if you wish to settle; of course, we'll want some of your resources as payment. Fair trade, right?

Don't shake hands without gloves. We don't know what was on your planet, you don't know what's on ours.
