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

Definitely not our work....we'd certainly never use such a horrible clashing of colors, even on the interior parts....

Do you design CLI inventions to be self repairing?

*Looks over Affy's and GL's shoulders.*

What do you mean, "not your work"? Are you saying that it's been hacked?

Is nowhere safe from hackers? Tsk tsk!

*rummages through the magazines*

Now now, hacking is a respectable tradition (if taken in proper context).

I would have to agree with Marv.

*chucks a at Marv and Zomnker*

Not when they are trying to hack into your home LAN they aren't!

*ducks behind the freezer in case of retaliation*

To quote Marv "If taken in proper context". Obviously, hacking someone's personal network is not the proper context.

*gets on a VPB and joins the other smokers indoors*

Deary me, what a lot of hitherto closet smokers we have...

*Dithers about donning a VPB too, but then realises that one smoke free zone in her life might be a good idea*

Well, it *could've* been hacked, but this just looks like the broom's had one too many "unpleasant" circumstances as a broom. For instance, I'd hazard a guess that at one point this broom attempted to selflessly put out a grease fire, but was stopped by the charging elephant.

Since when has anyone ever extended a line of credit to a Pachyderm?

B4play

Well, there's d'E, of course...

Decides to join in on the slurpee fun, since they're carb free here.

There's also a race of Australian Elephants who, due to their supremely high degree of intelligence, have been masquerading as humans for centuries, and often receive offers for credit lines.

But I wasn't supposed to reveal that to anyone, so forget that I mentioned it.

*Decides he needs to buy something, though not sure what.*

I recommend buying CLI's Fission Chips. They're sliced potatoes that were heated with nuclear radiation. They're really great, and just received FDA approval last month.

*Buys the Fission Chips*
You're sure these are safe, Affy? I mean, it was the FDA that approved them.
*Takes a bite*

Mm chipss..


and if I eat them I'll save money on my electricity bill..

Safe? Sure. Not as safe as the other CLI Food Products such as Crater Fizz ("Keeping dentists in business for three years"), Meegan Salads ("Made with immitation lettuce so that no vegetables have to die for your salad"), or Pre-Scrambled Eggs ("Just crack 'em open for tasty, nuclear-scrambled eggs"), but I can assure you that CLI takes pride in its long tradition of involving adventure and experimentation in the final products.
