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

My computer at work is quite clear however. And I have my hiro-glyphics person (the glyph formerly known as P***k) translating that last entry. While the final report is not yet available I might suggest Tink that there is more than mild contempt, well beyond the "ahem..yes quite" level being expressed with those antler thingies, greybeards, stuckout tungs (sic - really sic) and the ubiquitous fish signature.

Menza's last offering has been succesfully translated to mean I should have said "oblique spelling of his name" not "obtuse". See his last entry for sample obtusion.

No I'm sure it's not contempt... I suspect the other smileys were just there to amuse...
*passes John some Fruit Pastilles to apologise for Fish's random smiley use*

Oops. Mea culpa. Menza reference from another conversation about whether his name is spelled obtusely or obliquely. Just to clarify: His answer in the other thread was obtuse. His name is spelled obliquely. Not clear enough? OK, his name is Menza. When I said he spelled it obtusely he corrected me by showing me just how obtuse he can be when he puts his mind 2 wit.

Who's a fruit pastie?
Forgive me I'm on my home computer and its gone all fuzzy again.

"it's"

..Tinkerbell was giving you a Fruit Pastil..If you dont want it, can I have it?? Is it a purple one?

Are you sure you wouldn't rather assimilate one of these lime jammed crumpet toasties?

Oh and the fish is good here too. Red Herring today, in a bit of a pickle.

All the best, Three of Two.

Oh dear. I take it you're not in a good mood today? Think happy thoughts! (and I really don't get the lime jammed crumpet toastie reference, again, but I'm sure you mean it as a friendly compliment to whoever it's directed at). And I've given up assimilating people, 'cos I'm a NICE lime jammed crumpet toastie.
I hope you're feeling happier soon, but I really must be going 'cos it's all too hostile in here...(I'm in the happy place, I'm in the happy place...)

Hostile? Me? (Or "moi" as the french would so foppishly put it)
Gruff, brusk,insensitive, bilious old fart with a sense of humour darker than a witch's...Perhaps. And yet, truly, never hostile. Besides which (no pun intended) Momma don't allow no hostile in h2g2ville. This ain't Napster ho.
But if you want hostile I'll give ya hosti...
Now where'd she go? Run off with her cordical stimulator betwe..
They don't make Borg the way they used too. (Heavy sigh...)
Ah well, back to the Cellar at the Bof where an old fart can let it all hang out.
Peace children.

john, may I take the liberty of directing your attention to "quote of the day" in my journal...

What? I was being nice and giving you Fruit Pastilles to make up for Fish's mistakenly mean smileys...

*passes John a random selection of sweets*

Please can I have a Fruit Pastil? Pleasepleaseplease (I like the purple ones, but I'm not fussy) (looks hopeful)
=threeoftwo, who loves Fruit Pastils

*apologises*
Of course you can have the purple ones...
*passes over a bag of purple Fruit Pastilles*
You could come to the Ministry Of Jelly too if you like? There's many Fruit Pastilles there

..thanks! (dives into bag of Fruit Pastils) Yum!
Ministry of jelly? Sounds like threeoftwo heaven!

*grins*
Glad to hear it... I have no idea where it is but theres a link from my page
*looks proud*
I'm the Minister y'know, it means I get to eat all the jelly and claim it's for research purposes

(just hot footed it to the Ministry of jelly)...(and back again)
Excellent! But you'll save some for the rest of us..won't you? Can I be Official Fruit Pastil Counter, (just to check that nobody's been making free with the jellies) I'll take really, really good care of them!

It'll be fun adjusting the stocks when you accidentally undercount.

...Oh yes..and don't tell Tink, but I'm really bad at arithmetic..1 Fruit Pastil, 2 fruit Pastils...D'oh! 1 fruit Pastil, 2 fruit Pastils...

I wasn't being rude!

.... but I do need some...

...I'm sure you weren't, Fish...You can't go to yet, it's early!
