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

Do I know you?

Unless you live in Johannesburg, South Africa, I don't think so.

Oh, sorry. forgot which thread i was in.

... you say something witty to your friends and finish by saying "wink, big grin"

... you say something stupid to your friends and finish by saying "erm, tongueout"

... you are virtual drinking on three threads at once

you find you're here again

...you leave a message here saying to someone with a parrot "Don't worry; your troll has been yikesed!"

zdt

Thanks for telling me!

What *is* a troll, anyway?

...when this makes your day:

No sound card on my computer, no credit on my mobile phone & sure as hell no credit on my card! So could only look at at hat one.

A troll is a daft twat who goes round sites like this trying to stir up trouble basically; they often zoom in on one person & follow them around & hassle them; online stalker i suppose.

Never, ever respond to their messages, it encourages them; simply ignore them or yikes them. They get fed up eventually & find another victim.

Has Ari got his own page on hootoo yet? You know you're addicted to hootoo when your pet gets more postings than you do!

zdt*oops* and Yoda of course

Thanks. I'll be sure to ignore him and others in future.

I'll have Ari share my page if I ever get around to writing something on it.

You know you're addicted to h2g2 when people all over the world know of the daily doings of your pet (of course, *I'm* really *her* pet )

...when it's sunday afternoon on campus and someone has entered and left the computer room over 3 times and you haven't moved from the computer screen.

...you find something on a website and immediately think of mentioning it somewhere on here.

...you find yourself looking for the 'my space' button on other websites.

...you find yourself looking for the 'my space' button in text books. ()

...you are trying to do some very important research and you start by looking in the edited guide, followed by checking your conversations and consequently getting no work done.

...you can think of far too many things to post in a forum like this.

You can't think of ANYTHING to post in this thread, but you POST ANYWAY

...someone walks into the room after a touchtyping exam and says they were doing 60 words per minute and you quote, out loud, the point made earlier in this conversation, specifically "you know you're addicted when you can't type and then the next day you're doing 140 words per minute" (or something like that) and when everyone else looks at you you point out that it's an inside joke, followed by poiniting out that it it in fact an inside joke that hasn't been shared with anyone else in the room at the time so no-one else there will understand it, followed by saying something like "i'll shut up now" and, after everyone else agrees that yes, you should shut up now, you think that the perfect place to talk about this would be in this very forum.







i think i have a problem...

When you measure time not by days and weeks, but by postings.

(yes, its 6 posts past wimpy on my clock)

When you get NERVOUS and NeuROTIC after not posting on a conversation for a whole 8 postings!

When you get really twitchy in RL & think "ohmigod" i need to get back to sanity!" & realise "sanity" for you is actually h2g2.....

zdt

(and when you realise you are signing RL things "zdt"!)

Somebod else (eg: Galigan) quotes YOUR post, and you are overjoyed when you finally see it.
