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

Ah...an appreciative audience. Wait until you hear my full stand-up set,if you're ever in Manchester, England.

Oi, Scouts! This article RULES!

Oi, Scouts! This audience, tired of waiting, is getting UNRULY!

Scouts? Hello?

H.

This is one of those blatant attempts by the author of an Entry to push it to the top of the list of conversations. It's pointless, but we keep doing it. Any further comments gratefully mangled and turned into word-shaped head-scoff before being bagpiped into the scrofulous nonsense that is this entry.

H.

bagpiped?????

Seem clear enough to me - how else is one expected to get word-shaped head-scoff into the scrofulous nonsense?

Captain Kebab, happy to assist in the effort to keep bunging this back to the top of the list.

Calling all scouts....

So you're believing us scouts are short-sighted, aren't you? I realise that many researchers don't go further into PR than the first page of the listing, and obviously you're drawing conclusions from that...

Give me some picks and the squeaky wheel will get the oil

This is the martial art practised by rabbits and pheasants, isn't it? Very useful. Get it into the guide

Most of the pheasants round our way seem to practice the martial art of "standing in the middle of the road like a prat" and most of the rabbits seem to practice the martial art of lying very, very flat on the road. Those are just the ones I see, of course...

I'm still waiting for a charitable scout.

H.

I think you may find that rabbits practise the ancient martial art of "bonking like the clappers and out-breeding the enemy", sometimes described as "Fehk-lak-bunni". I'm told it can be very effective.

ROOOFL


H. - I'm sorry that this one is still languishing around here!

Ah, once more I sing the praises of this fine article.

It looks as if Hoovooloo wiped this one too, before what seems to be a very final exit from the site. That's such a pity - this was the first entry I thought of when I was considering that there were plenty of good Peer Review entries unpicked.

I'm afraid that some scout will now have the sad job of binning the thread, rather than the pleasure of picking the entry.

Damn & Blast. This is acrying shame, on more than one level.

I couldn't agree more.

What a waste. I thought about recommending this very funny Entry even though I suspected it would be rejected.

Anyway, as the Entry no longer exists, I must propose a move to the Sin Bin.

Any (reluctant) seconders?

Seconded.

Damn!



This entry, although wiped, lives on in *my* life anyway. I've recently moved to a rather dangerous city (nickname: "Nairobbery"), and I've been putting The Ultimate Martial Art into play a lot lately. Just last night, I Flew Like the Dragon from a completely unsafe encounter in a park at twilight, after my All-Seeing Eye noticed I was about to be jumped by four guys. Yikes. I was thinking of Hoovooloo the whole time. Thank you, Hoovooloo. I hope you come back.

Whatever you decide, I wish you peace.

P.S. Stay out of Uhuru Park, Nairobi, Kenya after about 5PM.

Editorial Note: This conversation has been moved from 'Peer Review' to 'Peer Review Sin Bin'.

The author has deleted the original entry to which this thread refers...

The entry's back. Can it go back in Peer Review?

I'm starting a new thread for it there just in case this one has to stay here...

H.

Welcome back H.
