Ok, so h2g2 gets voted out of the proverbial Big Brother House*. As tears roll down its cheeks Davina hugs it, points it at a monitor and says "Never mind h2g2, let's remind ourselves of your best bits".

*Insert your game show of choice.


So what are h2g2's best bits? Please post links below. Nothing is excluded: entries, personal spaces, conversations, postings, events, ... anything you can link to.


I'll kick this off with:

I never realized that Nighthoover left the site four months after I joined it.

Has he ever come back, even once? Have I?

That thread is at the top of my conversation list at the moment (because Paul revived it a couple of days ago) I am loathe to post and change it in my list because at the moment it reads that I last posted on that thread in October 2001.

Take that, facebook!

I recommend that September 25th be declared an international day of recognition - the one and only appearance in the mortal realm by "himself".

Lettuce spray. smiley - grovel

Perhaps Nighthoover is in reality an aardvark in search of an aardvarkcuum cleaner.

Also, the Murder Mystery was fun too. And I always loved this:

Re: Post 9, interesting and evocative suggestion.

Then of course, there's the relevant if prophetic passage from the Beatles movie, "The Yellow Submarine" after Ringo found a hole in his pocket.

IIRC the murder mystery was a NaJoPoMo project one year - Icy's maybe?
