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

Hiya Paul. Always glad to see the arrival of a new bug.
Let's hope all that enthusiasm gets knocked out of you before you go off sick with nervous exhaustion, though - writing your first entry in your first 2 days here?
It takes some of us years...all of a sudden you realise you've spent aeons in No No No and haven't actually contributed a single word to a Real GE.
Sigh.

I wish to extend my warmest welcomes to Paul, and hope he'll be very happy on hootoo.



psst...Jims? If he's part-time, does that mean we can only take the p*ss out of him 4 hours a day?



B

Howdy Paul!

*waves*

I'm sure Jimster will be delighted to inform you that although I'm only temporarily with the team, I am full-time here until I leave. So any baiting opportunities can be grasped at any point during the working day...

And can I just say another massive thank you to everyone who's been so kind at welcoming me to h2g2? You're a lovely bunch of weird... I mean, people!

Paully

Well, I can see you'll fit in just fine.

B

Well Hellloooo Paulll!

Another warm body thrown onto the fire! Welcome, and thanks for coming over. You'll be welcome back to visit as well, I assure you.

Watch out for the Plural Zones.

Hi Paul!

"Has no one given the poor man a towel yet?"
No, we just assumed that we knew where his was.

Hi, Paul and welcome.


Can we keep 'im? Huh? Huh? Please, can we keep 'im?

Hello Paul

Hope you enjoy your time on h2g2

"No, we just assumed that we knew where his was."

Well you can never have too many

Welcome Paul.

They say it's a madhouse, but it really isn't. Not really. No. It's just cunningly disguised as a madhouse.

In fact, it's a powerhouse of creative thought and energy; you could illuminate cities with the brainpower this place generates! Why, if you could channel it, you could harness this power to do anything! Anything! Anything at all!

Mua-hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaaaa...

Sorry. Just to re-iterate...not a madhouse.

Welcome, Paul.

Having been over there, and new to over here, I can't see any problems! Have fun and enjoy!

"And can I just say another massive thank you to everyone who's been so kind at welcoming me to h2g2? You're a lovely bunch of weird... I mean, people! "

Go with your instincts...

Okay... that's enough jokes about the insanity and weirdness you'll find lurking around here, I'd say!

Oh, and as a tip for writing your first entry, skip Peer Review. Just put it into the Edited Guide when Jims and Natalie aren't looking. It'll save you a lot of anguish.

"I knew the ways of the italics where mysterious but this surpasses all.

I will not ask how you managed to get your entries edited, but where can we find that button?"

Boy-o I wish I had those buttons.

But then again, I could never get them. Italics probably have to be ethical and all that...

Traveller in Time on his head
"As with the [Entry updated?] button I guess. . well, they should be ethical with such buttons < A2551204 > .
I wonder if we will get to see the entry today. He has been offline for two hours now, we will find out what it will become tomorrow I guess. "
