Goosnargh!
1 - 9 + 8 + (8 - 2) * 9 = 42, according to a simple but unexpected rule of multiplication present in my copy of The Restaurant at the End of the UniverseWhat is there to say about me? (that won't take too long to write; I hope to create a better introduction soon, although in all honesty I'll probably never get around to it...)
My name is supposed to be a reference to the Hitchhiker's guide books (I couldn't think of anything else, and this seemed appropriate), I am extremely indecisive (I will never answer with a definite 'yes' or 'no' unless it is completely unavoidable), I have a tendency to write long, complicated sentences like this one (Periods? Bah!), I am completely unable to come up with a good name for myself and stick with it (this is my third in as many weeks), I firmly believe that Thursday should be renamed Thing (okay, not firmly, I just believe the new names are superior), and I hope to conquer the world someday (who doesn't?).
I was briefly known as Slartibartfast II (Slartibartfast was a Hitchhiker's Guide character, who helped design the Earth for the pandimensional mice, and won an award for his fjords) until I discovered that there was already a Mrs. Slartibartfast (to whom I bear no relation whatsoever). In order to avoid confusion, I changed my name to Vroomfondel the Pandimensional Mouse, and hope to keep this name until I discover tomorrow that there are a half-dozen other established Vroomfondels.
INCREDIBLE TIME-TRAVELING UPDATE FROM TOMORROW:
The pandimensional mice, unsuprisingly enough, are indeed well-established in the Guide, and so I have removed all references to mousehood and will now claim to be Vroomfondel the Hooloovoo if anyone asks. (For those who have not studied the Guide intensely enough to know what Vroomfondel and Hooloovoo mean, you should, but in the meantime, Vroomfondel was a pandimensional mouse protesting the Great On-Turning of the computer to determine the Ultimate Answer (not to be confused with the computer designed to determine the Ultimate Question), and a Hooloovoo is a superintelligent shade of the color blue.)
NEWS FLASH FROM THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW:
The above newsflash has been discovered to be misleading. In fact, I have only changed my name to further confuse people!
NEWS FLASH FROM RIGHT NOW:
The above news flash is misleading! All above news flashes are misleading! All below news flashes are misleading! This news flash is misleading!
STAY TUNED FOR MORE PARADOXICAL NEWS FLASHES IN THE CONTINUING SAGA OF FINDING AN UNUSED NAME...
