Dave Barry had that one covered, more or less:

So that's it, gang. That's the plaque that's supposed to tell the aliens what you're like. Now if Pioneer 10 is picked up, I figure it will be picked up by some kind of Intergalactic Police, the alien equivalent of rural police officers. They'll look at it, and they'll say, "Looks to me like what we got here is we got a race of hydrogen-obsessed pervert science wimps who force the women to go around naked and probably say 'billion' a lot. I say we vaporize their planet and then ooze over to the diner for something to eat."
