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

... when you after cleaning out a whole page of old conversations on your conversation list, and still see no difference...

...when you never clean out old conversations, as sometimes they start up again.

... when you feel that people who don't bother to answer to a post after 6 months should be so kind and leave the premisses...
