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

If you have any suggestions for a name for this place, leave them here. The more surreal, the better.

The Lady Scott Home for the Bewildered and Befuddled?

Nice one! Maybe we could make up a signpost for the front lawn.


But the neighborhood itself needs a name. We have neighbors of all kinds, you know.

We're naming the whole neighbourhood? Ah, I didn't get that bit... even though it says so in the subject line. See, I'm a perfect candidate for residency at the home

Really, we're all just fine there... nothing wrong with a single one of us... and if you want to be adopted into what we rather loosely call a family, just say so - and choose your relationship to us.

Choose your relationship?

Yes, all the usual family relationships, of course - we have uncles, aunts... cousins 30,000 times removed, that sort of thing. Or just move into an empty house if you like.

Ah Let me think about that for a bit

I think I'd like to be that scary bloke who lives in the old house down the street:

Hmmmm... looks like perhaps you should ask ER if you can move into the old fixer-upper down the street with him. Although perhaps there is another house like that in the neighborhood, I never know until someone moves in, you know.

I'm not the kind of bloke who could share... leastways, not if you want to ensure Roy's safety

If you describe yourself and your house briefly, I can add you to the page... or do you want me to just use the description up there? *points up there*

I don't think you'd be allowed to use that... seeing as how it's copyright and all. I'll think of something

No, I meant what you said: that scary bloke who lives in the old house down the street

I'll just do it like that for tonight, and if you want it changed, let me know.

That scary bloke who lives in the old house down the street at number 42

Good choice!

s to change it on the adoption center page....

Yeah, yeah... borrrrring.... what else ya got?

Er, that's about it until they come up with some new smilies
