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

Ach, who cares?

I guess it's a matter of taste.

I'm on another planet so I'm never here, on here I'm just a figment of my imagination

I thought it was only joiners from the eastern Med that can walk on a pirate's grave?

That one took me a minute.

Although - that's interesting. If I took Pierce right he meant that saying about the grave is used in Denmark for those suddenly silent moments. But here, it's used when you get a tingle down your spine.

"somebody just walked over my grave" we say the same saying, which is going to be a laugh for me, I've left my body to medical science

I've had a laugh with it, might as well carry on after I've kicked the proverbial bucket

Here, too. A sudden feeling of un-ease.

Hey, can you clear this up? What's this about 'legal highs' having people running all over Ireland in a psychotic state?

Er, and...er, how could they tell anything different was going on? (Sorry, couldn't resist.)

Brits on one side, Yanks on the other - be fair, with neighbours like ours, you'd have your fair share of psychoses too!

if your buried in space ? would they have to dig a black hole ?

KB, you're right. We're pretty nutty down here, too.

Thanks for the info. When they said 'legal high', I was thinking of oregano.

Or bananas...

That sounds nasty.

I don't know about burial in space, Prof - but they might have to do one with that zombie satellite.

at 5ft 3ins if I stand on a housebrick, that's an legal high to me

The thing about the whole 'legal high' thing is that nobody has the faintest idea what it is they are taking or what it's doing to them. It's basically volunteering to be a medical guinea pig, except you pay *them* and nobody benefits from the research.

that one they've just banned is a plant food - they'll inject anything nowpeople that we could do without

I'm over here reading about ingredients of these so-called 'party pills' which are being hyped to give people fantastic experiences.

They ought to just arrest these people for false advertising and be done with it. ('Wielding purple prose without a licence', for instance...)

Geranium oil? They're trying to get high on geranium oil? This is dumb, people.

Back to the bananas...

as I say to folk, I don't need drugs for highs, MY highs are my friends

Good for you, Prof.

Me, I don't dare...my brain is a seething mass of weirdness without chemical interference...

I resemble that last sentence Dmitri
