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

I agree about the being drunk / being near them thing. Always better to be on the inside looking out rather than the otherway round in this case! Nice to see some stated rules to pennying. Whilst the main ones stand there's endless drunken yelling over the more minor/unknown rules

Such as triple pennying (for when your friends are relly dumb)

hmmmm,
i think triple pennying just counts as a "second" double penny. so, as the glass gets handed to the double pennyer after the the initial double penny, any further pennying results in the glass being handed to the most recent pennyer. and so on ad infinitum.

Oh, okay (are you in here or do you have network in room? either way is pretty silly, huh?)

I agree with Neilfish - if there is already a penny (or pennies) in the glass, whoever adds another penny has to down the glass. Are you two both in the same room but talking on here? That even beats my level of laziness - have started using MSN to say hi to people in the building. Too tired to get up and walk!

we were indeed in the same room- about 2 ft from each other. though there was a brick wall partition in between and so we couldn't see each other.

Still, as laziness goes that is way up there! Lots of respect.

Yep, Caius students are at the top of the scale. Definitely. I was actually unaware of him being in the room, but that's cos I don't look around as I walk through computer room in dungeons (why are they all underground?).

Mine's at the top of library. It's nice to look out onto Sidney's gardens (yes, I'm lying thru my teeth). I think Sid students may be trying to challenge you for the title of laziest students!

how exactly can they compete with using H2G2 to chat to each other whilst 2ft from one another?

I think we win.
Especially since we live, what, three doors down from each other? No, four. (it's on my way to the computer room)
So do you medics know each other?

i don't think so. as far as i remember i don't know ANYONE from sidney sainsburys. but i may be wrong.

sainsburys? wish i lived near there.

Well I do and it's GREAT!

Mmm, food.
Would like that.

choc croissants in morning when have nothing for breakfast...

It's nice on the way back to rowing and you don't have a lecture for a couple of hours - pop in and pick up some breakfast

No lecture for a couple of hours? I always have lectures at 9 or 10 (except sundays, obv)

It only happens very rarely - occassionally there won't be a 9 o'clock or when we had a reading (yeah right) morning.

Reading in bed woth your eyes shut, you mean?

That's the one!
