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

The PTB have given a green light in regards to this entry. It doesn't break the Editorial Policy so discuss away!

It's good to hear that I have not broken the rules.

It never was a case of broken rules, we don't excile researchers for not sticking to the guidelines for redited entries, in fact, we welcome them as some can be slightly modified to meet the guidelines and others may never become edited but will always be great fun entries.

So now you have to wait to see if any scouts like it enough.....

AAaah, the fourteen letter S word... for those who think it's sickly, you might want to say soemthing about the origin of the word; to me, it's pure Bloom County....

I like this entry, and indeed I think it has the potential to be perfect guide fodder because it gives information about soemthing that many people do, without really being aware of whether other people do it too, and thus how natural it must be! Thhis guide covers the subject that other leave out. QED.

...but I still think that food should be allowed

Here's a Scout who *does* like it enough!

Alas, my turn to recommend entries will be no sooner than three weeks from now

Bossel (Scout)

Would it help if it was changed from "No food" to "Food is only if both bunnies agree before hand and the food would cause no crumbs that would atract ants." Somthing like that anyway?

Mmmm, Cloviscat, although I agree the word is pure Bloom county (which is why I noticed it), the concept is slightly different. It's late and I don't want to go thru my volumess but I thought the Bloom County "Snuggle Bunnies" was, lets say, a bit more physical,indeed I seem to remember the term "Sweaty Snuggle Bunnies" used (at this point Opus had to lie down or something)

For those of you who haven't a clue what we are talking about then tough, although you can find out some of it here http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A292475

Hi Tacsatduck! Remember me? I'm glad that so many people like your entry. Would you like it to be part of the game index aswell?

Food bit sounds fine Tacsatduck

Of course, part of the joke in Bloom County was to talk about the 'S' word, and then come out with (admittedlt ridiculuous) 'Snugglebunnies' instead. Most of Opus' fantasies seemd to deal with the standard Snugbunnies described here (but usually involving anchovies or hosetess ding-dongs - food again!). Sweaty snugglebunnies, as Tacsatduck says, is a totally different game....

My, what a serious conversation

Bloom county, I read some of the strips but I am not too familiar with it. This other strip I read is often times compared with Bloom County its called Liberty Meadows.

Which begs the question: where did you get the phrase from?

Actually I thought the phrase was well known. I didn't really come up with or anything, but have been taught basically that it was called Snuggle Bunnies. Its kind of on the same lines as Eskimo kisses and butterfly kisses. Originally when I wrote the piece before I put it up for peer review I told the story of why I wrote it. Sense that story was all in the first person I figured it would be best to leave it out and stick to the main point of the paper.

Well, responding to peer review has paid off, Tacsatduck, because this entry has just been approved for entry into the edited guide! Please be patient while it goes to the Sub-Eds, and soon you'll see it on the front page!

Well done!

YAY!!!™ I knew it! Congrats!

Editorial Note: This thread has been moved out of the Peer Review forum because this entry has now been recommended for the Edited Guide.

Hey ppl. I'm the sub on this entry, I'd just like to let you know. What is this entry?! It is the weirdest thing that I've come across as a sub. Unfortunatly, we can't reject entries any more. How this thing got through Peer Review, I don't know (no offence or anything)!
