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

Hi Loosehead. I recommend entering the items you want into Google in image search mode. It's excellent - bunch of thumbnails come up and you can see the images larger and in the context of the site they're from.

Can anyone do a sentence with more words containg O?

"Not now blowing smoke, God only tokes Old Gold on Holydays or Orthodox outings."

It dinna have t'make sense.

Dagnammit ~jwf~ I already did an infinitely long one. How ya gonna beat that?

Collective congratulations to those of you contributing, for so promptly solving our previous problem, correctly sorting out luscious Olympia without resort to phocoid prompting.

(...Hey, ~jwf~, every word with an O! )

*see subject line - ignore these transgressions*

OK Mister Smarty Pants, now we limit it to words only having Os.
No A,E,I or U.


Oh boys-o-boys! So, now God only got orthodox Old Golds, yo!

~jwf~ I refer you to my previous answer.

*twiddles thumbs*

Only Os? So no long words! Doom for Good Old Hootoo...

* look of forlorn sorrow *

howls to

No! Do not conform! Hootoo's got to stop John! (God knows how...)

...Doc?

Oh Joy! Lobotomy for John? How soon?

Tomorrow? No good; too slow...

Now? Cool!

Tools, OK...spoon, hook, ...

Oblong slot, OK....

(Nobody look now...sort of gory...loss of blood...)

Ooops! * plop on floor *

Oh, God....SO gross...

OK! Now John's got control knobs! Look!

* works knob - John slows down; soon stops on spot, poor old sod *



A...E...I...O...U...Thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog...
OK, you guys - normal alphabetic service has been resumed!

Back to thumb-twiddling...

...that was fun, wasn't it?

Who shall we cut up next?

...maybe #4966 was actually a question?

* takes scalpel to a few donuts, slicing them in various planes *

...Interesting...

Symmetry

Ignoring variations in fonts, the words are comprised of letters (when in CAPITALS) that are symmetrical as follows:

CHECKBOOK horizontally
(other letters = D, I and X)

HOMOTAXIA vertically
(other letters = U, V, W and Y)

ZOONOSIS 180º rotational
(other letters = H and X)



Although I have no idea where *Tyger Tyger* fits in

The next line goes

"what imortal hand or eye, framed thy fearful symemtry"

so my guess would be ... a clue

spellcheck

that should read

"what immortal hand or eye, framed thy fearful symmetry" (William Blake)

The 'mem' shows.

Bouncin' is what Tiggers do best.

*thinks - zoonosis is a disease transmissable between animals and man*

Fearfully good six7s,

........the words are comprised of letters (when in CAPITALS) that are symmetrical.........

however there are other words with these properties. There is something about each of these words which makes them unique.
and I'm sure you'll find it before long.

HOMOTAXIA, nine letters long, is the longest word in the English language composed entirely of letters with vertical symmetry in upper case.

ZOONOSIS, eight letters long, is the longest word in the English language composed of letters with 180 degree rotational symmetry.

But I am unable to balance my CHECKBOOK!

composed entirely of letters with horizontal symmetry in upper case
