h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hmmm. Am I really the only one who has felt horny after eating mushrooms?
Or am I just wierd?

It depends if the mushrooms were wrapped round the oysters.

I've felt sick after eating mushrooms... and often, Hollywood Love Scenes are so badly done it makes me feel sick too....

Those scenes are fake, they can never happen.

Agreed. Far too many slurping noises to be realistic. As for sex on marble staircases...

It would just wreck your back.

At least it wasn't an escalator...

Now that COULD turn nasty!

And the slurping noises would be too realistic.

I take it you mean the result of meeting the jagged edge at the top? The Japanese have invented the escalator that goes round corners. You could have the infinite escalator

Actually, that wouldn't work - you'd make a giant spring, not a circle.

Yes, I meant the result of meeting the jagged edges....
A spiral escalator would be a very interesting idea... Once when I was watching a TV programme on the king of Saudi Arabia, it said that he had in his house a single step escalator! A good question is why? Surely a ramp would be a lot easier!

Did you know there is only one Public Escalator on the Isle of Wight. It is the BHS Escalator in Newport, and on it's opening weekend in c.1996 thousands of locals rushed to Newport, went into BHS, went up the escalator, down the stairs, and out the back of the shop, only to go round to the front of the shop to join the queue for the Escalator again... BHS didn't sell anything, but became a tourist attraction for the locals.

Me thinks it is just an exhibiin of his wealth that is. I'm so rich I install the must ludicrus escalator in the world sort of thing.

*only just resists making a comment about Isle of White inhabitants*

Isn't the lack of public escalators on the Isle of Wight due to the fact the 92% of the population can fly? Or maybe that was just the local 'produce' that made it seem that way...
I, personally, am in the process of installing an escalator to help me with the climb into bed.

Have you succeeded yet?

I have RSI in my mouse finger for this!!!

I didn't.

I think it's worth it just to read this thread again

Its pointless comments like that that are damaging innocent researchers apendages.
