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

I would say that he needed a pen name when it came to being really filthy in the Internet. But in real life his name remains ambiguous which he enjoys.

ok, we really really need to write stuff about reality shows, the new season of big brother is starting here, it is so stupid, it takes so little imagination to watch it, act in it or invent it,

thats a good point

Ok, so on the exterminate list so far are;

microsoft
reality shows
talk shows

Any other pet hates lined up for anialation?

ME ME ME!!!! Harry Potter, the person who wrote it lacked so much imagination that she stole most of the ideas from the Greeks, think about the 3 headed dog thing, one the gods had a pet exactly like that, plus many other things, my english teacher said she made one of the classes watch it and take note of all the things that she took from greeks and such, and there was heaps of them.


and then we could always doing something like a contridiction, and use something from DNA in our story that everyone knows, while saying that people should use there imagination more

Wasn't it the whole point that JK stole ideas from mythology though? It is a fantasy. Still, we could put in about steeling other people's ideas and not actually having your own.

I feel there could be many contradictions without us actually trying.

I'm a bit worried that janet has accepted a talking alien and a talking chimp a bit too quickly. But then, the rest of the story is hardly realistic, is it?

Maybe she could of come across aliens before, or has meet the Utarians or something?

Er, well, no.

Or maybe she accepts it because she lacks imagination, just like the rest of the universe. She doesn't realise the implications of an Alien and a talking chimp, perhaps?

Or she is still drunk

That sounds more like it.

far more likely

yeah like oddy, which would explain why she slipped and made the big noise

also true

we also have to address the matter of the great cat fleet, with there advanced maths that they stumbled across

There's that to. Sure they could be put in somewhere, and it is linked with what God was speeding away from as well I suppose.

Can't work on it at mo now, have to go to Sutton Bonington to study GM tomatoes. Fun.

Alight, here goes, some ideas that Jonathan and I came up with as regards plot. Feel free to add/discuss/reject

So far in the story, we've come across god in many occasions, sometimes trying to hlp, other times propelling Oddy into space. It seems unlikely that they could be the same person, so what if they're not? All them so far could be God imersonators, some who are trying to get a bit of recognition (after the commandment that there were no other gods thing), and the others trying to advance the plot to destroy imagination and with it the universe.

One of these could be Gill Bates - we've already said he isn't human anyway. Another could be Kilroy.

The actual god can't actually do anything due to an annoying loop hole. Saving the universe would destroy it - we've already explained how religion can limit imagination, so if god was proved, imagination would dissappear and the universe would fail.

It would be a nice twist though if it was the actual God who was powering the flannel. Explaining that would make a nice end to the story.

Then there's the whole ten commandments thing. What if it wasn't god who wrote them, but an impersonator. As people tend to do what they are told, they would limit imagination, and god does not want the universe destroyed. Also the 'there are no other gods but me' thing would limit imagination, adding to the plot. Alternatively we could add a third party at this point - a television company (perhaps under the influence of Kilroy), could have written it under the influence of a bridge in time as a plot to lessen imagination, not to destroy the universe, but so that people would actually watch day time tv.

Throw s at will.

I like it a lot.

What if we eventually find out that there are no original religious teachings left, the imposters have made it all up. It looks more and more likely that there is no real god, and then, right at the end, it's revealed he is powering the flannel.

Just a thought.

No, actually, cancel my last post

What was wrong with it?
It would be quite a twist to appear to have proved religion wrong, well parts of it anyway, and then turn the whole thing round at the end.
