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

Me too...

Can't argue with that Wanna put a fence up?

"Awwh, isn't she a beaut? *is being eaten by an anaconda*"
I can't forsee acceptance into geekly communities.
If you buy NewScientist you'll get a code for an online tombola. I won a £5 firebox gift voucher, so I bought a keyring..

I have this deep longing to do something other than sit at home and fill in application forms... I also have this quite strong urge to meet you in person. Excellent two birds, one stone opportunity there

Yeah! And a flag

Having flashbacks of "'tis only a fleshwound!"
And why not? You are most welcome in mine. Don't see why any other geeks wouldn't be as eager to let you in. Especially male ones- don't get many attractive geeks, y'know.
Oooh... Must buy New Scientist... though saying that, I have a firebox catalogue which has it's own tombola.. you can win up to a £1000 voucher.
What keyring?

TK[1]

Well, I'm laying down a few subtle hints and so far nothing has exploded on me. It will have done by Tuesday, though, I can promise that. *sigh* Don't get your hopes up.

Yay! Can we build a fort, too?

"Come back, I'll bite your legs off!"
Which is one of the downsides- how likely am I to be treated as a person in such circles?
This week's NewScientist [dated 30th October] has a graduate jobs special in it
I also have the firebox catalogue heehee
I got one of the "qee"s Came through yesterday, mine was a limited edition one

I'm not... I've learnt that you should always expect the worst, then when the worst doesn't happen (it's a scenario that transpires occasionally, so I'm told), it's a pleasant surprise Just don't forget what I've said about lending my shoulder, ear and any other body part should you need it, and also the bit about me not going anywhere

I would have thought that was pretty much taken for granted, me being the boy who refuses to grow up, and all. Used to build some great forts in my youth, I'd jump at the chance to build some more now!

Is that a promise?
Once they have got past the involuntary stutter which comes from being introduced to a vision of beauty who is also in the position of being on their level, most geeks are actually quite gentlemanly. You don't see me treating you as anything other than yourself, do you?
I know :-p
I know that too :-p
Cool, lucky you. I'm still choosing...

TK[1]

I've been wondering lately if it's best to take on that theory for a while. But I'm far too stubborn to accept that.

Yay! Y'know, I never had the oportunity to build a decent fort. Probably because I was a girl *sulks* It took me years of nagging to get a remote control car

Erm...sure?
You could be an entirly unique specimin, you know.

go with the flow... it's worked for me for years...

Aw, stick with me and you'll get to build all the forts you want.

lol
It certainly feels like it at times.

TK[1]

I try my best to, but I tend to dislike the flow and don't do well when unhappy... I'm not on msn cause this a sneaky run online

Yay! Really?!

It's the best way...

I don't mean the general flow of what everyone else is doing. Just the general flow of causality. I think I'm only operable when i'm unhappy- when I'm in a good mood I just spend the whole time wondering when the next thing's going to go wrong.

duh, yes! Until I get bored with them. Which will probably after you. And then we'll find something else to do.

Is indeed... don't meet many people, but the ones you do, and that stick around, seem to be of a better calibre anyway

TK[1]

I try not to think when happy. I know it won't last, and I'm determined not to remember that while it's happening.

Like make paper aeroplanes and race them?

I second that..

I know the feeling...

Definitely

I'll third it, if only because I can't think of anything else to say

TK[1]

Well that settles it. I'd say we're both clinically depressed.

WE could be eco-friendly and make them out of the ex-fort...

Rather much sums itself up I guess....
How about the philosophy of mathematics?

Prefer not to think of it like that... there's gotta be a more PC way of saying it.

Good idea! Unless we wanted to go back to the fort... but also, paper isn't the best of fort- building materials :-s

No thanks. NEXT.

TK[1]

Okayyy.... we were both out of the room when the Big Guy was handing out the happiness? We fell out of the unhappy tree hitting every brranch on the way?

WE could try making carboard paper aeroplanes. If that'd work.

Marxism?

I think it's more likely that we just couldn't catch when they were throwing round the happy-ball.

Lets just make REAL aeroplanes.

Nah, boring.

TK[1]

Either that or we dropped it and stubbed our toes.

Wooooah.... Out of cardboard?

Fine, you decide....

Most likely.

Out of anything we can find!

Erm...

TK[1]

Would explain the state of my toenails... and possibly why you have wide feet

Wahey! Scrapheap Challenge...?

Lol My toenails are a bit of a state too, actually.

Lol, or scrap paper challenge.

Hardly any call for such rudeness...

TK[1]

Well there's a possible thesis, anyway

We could sell it to the Beeb! It'd make a great kids' show!

Sorry, I just had to...


Y'know there are two interpretations of that smilie. Pinwheel said it looked like someone doing cat's cradle, and Sere said it looks like a flasher...

Not sure where that'd be published, though.

Excellent... who would we get to host it?



lol, I can see both points...
