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

Zax, that is a portable transistorised device- it hardly compares with 50 lbs per square inch of high pressure suction now does it?

*Baldrick enters, looking nice and clean*

Hi guys, I've had a hard week! The highlight was hearing that Mugabe now is totally constipated from eating my 'mercy meal'.
How's things? And the proper abbreviation is 'Balders' , by the way.

*Baldrick takes a long swig from a flask and looks with amusement of the excessive crumbing on the floor - he then adds to it part of a turnip doughnut and settles down better*

Oh? Balders, eh? you don't say. So how're tricks, baldy?

*wondering if this is really what the grin has come to... hiring a cook that uses floor scraps for garnish...*

are you Serions, B.E.D.?? you'd never noticed? cool.. you owe me big, now!

hey mike? do you know all the lyrics to "sunday, bloody sunday"?

*wondering where the gorgeous greebz went off to...*

serions=serious...

Serions - how did you know her name? Have you been visiting my suction pump,Zax? She wasn't serious with me if you know what I mean...heh heh.

No, Zax, but now you mention it I'm quite keen to find them out. I think that's the only U2 song I like *^_^*

That's one more than me

LOL

*determined not to get into a debate on the merits of U2, Zax takes another swig of Jack, and judiciously neglects to mention the little 'get together' with the Edge and Bono in the Seraphim room the other night..*

without them, i never woulda known you could use that orafice for the consumption of alcohol... gotta love people who take their religion seriously...

the Årchangel Zax*


*Patron Saint of Drunken Indulgence

Zax? What happened to your name? Is that actually a Å??

While we're on the subject of special chars, what's with the "wirbt für"?

No wonder you like U2 Zax, what with being the patron saint of drunken indulgence.....

'Droyd: doncha know?! *hic!* i do SO love the irish!


Alien: HEY! long time no post! (at least not in the same conversation.. you know what i mean..

Yep, it's most definitely an Å... i like it... looks like my A has a little halo, all it's own! sorta my little trademark.. that and my *!... does anyone else get the impression that i like to be special? What a ham....

the Årchangel Zax*
... never watered down...

*the Patron Saint of Drunken Indulgence...

While we're commenting on Zax, let me ask this: Why have you stopped writing out your other sainthoods? You could easily get some sort of copy/paste thing going on. And while I'm on the topic, what exactly are you the Weekendism saint of? I remember your changing it, but I've never seen you use the new title.

you want the Long or the Short answer, B.E.D.?

Short: I got the Definite impression that people felt like i was rubbing it in... you know? like i was being pompous...

Long: so i shortened it, and was just putting the "³" after my Saint... then i started with the *... then i've just been playing around with it... All three of my sainthoods are on my homepage, tho... right up at the top... and all over.. it's sorta a shrine to ME>..

Also, i wanted to be the Weekendism saint of Saturdays, or saturday nights, either or both, who cares, right? but when i asked, you said i could be "the Saint of Whatever..." and i thought that just said it all right there!
i'd like to find a way to put them all there.. maybe an abbreviation... i dunno... what do you think, should i start signing with all of them again? i thought it was good advertising if nothing else!


Saint Zax* the Årchangel
trying not to offend..


*Patron Saint of Drunken Indulgence (N.G.A), the True Brownie (CotTB), and Whatever (CoW)

Hmmm...that signature IS a bit on the heavy side....maybe you should leave it the way it was before.

uh huh..

So it's a halo on the A? I thought is was the letter Å which would have made the word pretty weird to spell...

Mike: it's German for "advertising" - the place is in German, so that's why...

oh my goodness. come ON alien.. like ANYONE on here actually takes the special characters seriously! obviously it's an Å.it looks like a halo. that's the point. when writen by hand (and in most fonts) it's an A with a circle intersecting the top of the A... let's not get into proper pronunciation, etc. 'k?
ppphhhbbbbt!

Danke schön Aliemn . I'm just going to go and check it out now.
