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

By some amazing and miraculous chance of pure improbabilty, I landed here, at this computer and at this website.
Okay, maybe not improbabilty. But by the amazing power of both psychological suggestion and the all forceful Google.
So... I think I shall continue poking the computer and go off and check out the rest of this froody website. Heh.

Hi and welcome to h2g2!

You'll soon find a welcome message on your user page from one of the <./>ACEs</.>, probably containing a lot of useful links

Meanwhile, why not start by taking the <./>DontPanic-Tour</.> to find out more about this place?

Oh - and by the way - would you like a ?

*puts the kettle on while waiting for someone to bring the cake*

Froody! (Should mention: it's like my "word of the day", only it's "word of the millenia, let's see how many people I annoy by using it" ^_^;; )

rocks. Total fact of life and all that. A good strong English brew up is the cure for everything! Arthur Dent, in the 'The Restaurant at the End of the Universe', has the right idea, that's for sure!

*pours and *

Well, you seem to have picked up the h2g2 smileys pretty fast!

Aaaand.. BINGO! Here's your ACE messages: <./>F1740708?thread=380929</.>

How are you finding h2g2 so far? Had any time to look around yet? I'd recommend starting with taking the <./>DontPanic-Tour</.>

did I hear the sound of a cork popping, and smell chocolate ?

greetings to you all ... this looks like a lovely party! can i crash? a pint of guiness would hit the spot!

i wish i could play along with the darling little smileys! i found the pages were they are listed but alas am too dense to figure them out.

my guess is, that you find a smiley you like and write down the code ... am i even close?? for example ...

if i'm right, do you all just commit the codes of your favorites to memory?? or write them down on a post-it note??

can you tell i'm new here???

now where's that beer??

Hi Lunaflora

Welcome to the party

Most of the smiley names are fairly basic - < winkeye > < evilgrin > < nahnah > < magic > < doctor > - but eventually you end up remember the ones you use most

We even end up writing things we want to be smileys in the same way!! Such as and it can get a bit silly sometimes! .

A friendly <./>ace</.> will drop by your page and leave you a welcome message soon, but in the meantime have some
