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

I'm still confused by why some women seem to think men run the world...are they the *really* thick ones?

No I think they actually looked at the statistics and realised that maybe something must be going on that out of 170 odd countries only 3 had woman leaders.

Yeah right and that means men run the world, sheesh most male world leader are married, they haven't made up their own mind about anything for years.

Oh and don't come out with the tired old 'Men earn more money than women' thing, ok on average a man may earn more than a woman doing the same job but that's because he's earned it. Women won't debase them selves for promotion like men will, the feminist movement made them think they don't need to suck up or squirm to get a promotion and that ability should be all that counts.

Oh and men may be earning more money but women spend more.

Yeah but if we did'nt the economy would collapse. Most of the world's cash would be sitting in bank accounts gathering dust.

There are some brave women in the world, marrying unscrupilous bar stewards but they do so to save the economy, they spend money that isn't thiers so we can all buy things!

No, because men would then be able to spend their hard earned money on toys and stuff

No, they would'nt, the stingy boring paranoid fools.

Yes they would, they could buy PDAs and radio controled helicopters and beer making kits and electric card shufflers and stuff

They only buy that stuff to impress women!

nah, they buy it because guys like toys. Like I'm currently looking at new phones, not because I need a new phone but because I want a slightly posher/newer version of the one I've currently got.

No, I'm sure your only buying to store more numbers from your fan club!

Nope, it's thegadgeteyness, like one of them has a built in GPS, they all have wifi and I like the ones with atouch screen.

See I don't think your really impressed by that are you?

Yes, yes I am....one even has a screen that can be flipped up to reveal a keyboard and the screen can then be swivelled round to make like a li'l tiny laptop

See, look your trying to impress me, and its working.

Does it work as an mp3 player?

yes, yes it does, but as I already have an iPod that's not a big issue for me.

Yes but surely it's less things to carry? You don't want to walk around looking like a cyborg?

But my iPod has an 80gb HDD, which is over half full, there's no way I'm gonna fit all that onto a mobile.

Wow technology these days. My computer is about 80Gb and it's probabily about 10 times the physical size of your mp3 thing.

Mac or PC?

er...I think it's a David Mitchel?
