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

Hence my typing "wet".

Ages since I had a go at a pinata, though

I'd personally rather beat people with the pinata to make it open, rather than beat it with a stick.

It depends which people, of course.

often not, actually.

To each their own.

righto.



What was this project anyway?

Trying to gather little known information, I think.

*strokes beard* oh...

I wish I had a beard to stroke.

I don't, I just said so for effect.

Actually, if I did, I'd never get anything done. I'd just sit around stroking my beard.

for effect?

Yes. And because beards are inherently fascinating.

I knew a guy with a beard once.

Heh.

Quite! Quite! Illustrates my point. I mean, no- one thinks it a point of interest that they knew someone without a beard once. And yet, I have known some quite fantastic beards.



The amount of topic drift...

there was a topic?

There was indeed. This conversation didn't start as a meandering beard thread.

The thingy over the "n" in pinata is called a tilde... not that that wasn't known, just that I've been yelled at when typing up my spanish essays for not including them, and I'm rambling. Gripe. Gripe.
Beards are quite interesting. My brother's beard, for some reason, is red. His hair is brown. It's odd.
Oh.
...type novel, type, type...no, type the novel, not posts.

So in fact, hitting someone with a pinata would involve throwing a piece of punctuation at them?

How do you dial a tilde?
