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

Went blackberry pickin'.

*Basically, yes. *I shall, I shall. *Hm, I'm not much for disguises. Too time consuming for too little. *Not about that. Did not. *Because it's not. On a plane of zero gravity, you can still fall down. It was a challenge. ******** (Entertaining, indeed... (I tell you, you can NOT determine up and down by gravity. (Organization and ovoids. Sheesh. (I don't know. (It kind of makes me smile.)))))

As soon as mommy hits the stores.

No, because I won't be able to stop.

Strangely, neither can I. It's Sunday, it's quiet, I am lazy.

Aha. Was it fun? What are you going to make with the berries?

*I see... Well, it would appear to have worked. *And you did. I'm now wondering if I actually got all of them before we got interrupted. The ones you gave me were great. *Oh, but think of all the fun in gloating to yourself about how you've tricked all of them... *You could've argued it anyway. Did too. *Ah, I didn't notice the bit about zero gravity. Well, you don't fall off then, you _float_ off. There's a difference. ******* (Entertaining and odd... powerful combination. (You can, and you do. Do we have to do this _again_??? (But what fun. (I think quite a lot. (As it does to me ())))))

I love cheesecake. And CAKE.. I'm practically bouncing because of the promised release...

I see. Well, you're going to have to reply in text in stead.

Sounds rational to me. I'm off school most of tomorrow too...

It was great fun, although I got royally chewed out for it. Something along the lines of, 'You can NOT be climbing through briar patches in shorts and a spaghetti strap with no shoes on. Do you know how many rattlesnakes are in there? Look at all of the stickers you have in there.' Quite honestly, the entire time I was laughing hysterically because I can just imagine what the snakes are saying when someone comes near them. Imagine this song sung in a very deep bass...http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric.nsf/Back-It-Up-lyrics-Blue/D0AA3B3DF4567B4D48256DC8000E99B5 I'm the only one who eats them. I'll probably make a pie.

*It worked marvelously. She kind of floundered for awhile. It really just popped into my head. *I think you did. My father is trying to blow our wiring out, I think. *Yes, but I do that too much as it is. Some is necessary, for me, but I don't want it encourage that. *I could have. Did not. *You're still going down. I think I win with that. ********** (Incredibly. Hey, it's fun. (We don't have to do it again, but I think I won. (It is quite. (I don't remember. (Incessantly silly. (Hahaha, you are hopeless.))))))))

I do, too. Oooh, I just figured it out! I'm going to make blackberries sauce and cheesecake. I am completely hyped about the release. I just wish they'd get out of the bars so I could see them again.

I did.

The title is 'I Like Dirt.' Are you? Why?

Hahahahahaha. Well, I can imagine how your mother would say something like that. Hmmm... alright, I'm imagining it.... Mmmm, I like pie, but Norwegians don't usually make them, sadly.

*Very amusing, at that. *Yay! Is he? How? *True, that. I don't do it, as a rule. *Did too. *Nope, you don't. You do not fall off a plane in zero gravity! ******* (Extremely so. (No, you didn't. You haven't answered my argument. I am in general disagreement with your grammatics. There's a difference between falling off, and falling down. (Hmmm, we're saying the same thing in two of the brackets. (I can't remember what we were talking about, for that matter. (That's the fun bit. (Indeed. Your turn to make another one.))))))

Mmmmmmm. Sounds great. I wish they'd go on a tour of Europe. Or at least Britain. I'd be willing to go there just to see 'em.

Did you? (What are we talking about here?)

Found it in my gignatic media library.

I don't understand why. She's just happy that she usually doesn't have to see me in the summer. I don't wear shoes ANYWHERE. She'd die of embarrassment. Oh, I do dearly love pie. What sweets DO Norwegians make?

*I do try and I hate capslock. *He's trying to run a lawnmower off of the house electricity. *I'm glad you agree. *Did not. *Then what do you do? ********** (You're not exactly helping me keep this 'un alive. (I am in general disagreement with your grammatics, too. I have answered your argument but you refuse to accept it. (Well, yes, but that's because you're being unreasonable. (I was going to ask you. (I wonder why our grass is missing. (I think it was easier with the asterisks (you know, you only had to do an action at the end of the paragraph.)))))))))

My mother still hasn't gotten cream cheese. There isn't enough wide-spread popularity for them to even travel much in the US.

I'm not quite sure what we're talking about. How are you?

Do you have any system of organization for that? (Why am I, of all people, asking that?)

Ah, well, parents. Pie is great. Not a lot, admittedly. We buy some chocolate every now and then, and we make brownies... Mmmmm.



*Capslock is spawn of the devil. It should never have been invented, as it has no purpose and is always in the way of what you really intend to hit. *Why would he do that??? *I often do, but I like being cynical every now and then. *Did too! *Float off. Or fall off, but you do not fall _down_*I've just realized that we've killed two asterisk-framed sentences! *gasp****** (Nope, but you're doing great on your own, so why should I bother? (Probably, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem, considering that we both have chronic bracketitis. (I refuse to accept, because I'm RIGHT! (About what? (Equally bad, so we are. (Is it? Ours is just where it usually is? Has Kyra been around? (Maybe so, but here you just have to add a detail at the end (like this))))))))

She will, no doubt. My sister saw them in England.

Nobody ever knows. Fine, still a bit wozzled, but fine. How about you, dear?

Telepathic questioning, no doubt. Yes, I organize everything into Genre, Artist and Album. Subfolder upon subfolder, all with upper case in the first letter.

They offer endless confuzzlement. I love brownies. I like to put too many eggs in them so that they’re almost like fudge. Mmmmmm…

*Yes. *Hm, I would have to ask and I’m actually afraid to know. Let’s just say that the lawn mower will not be running anytime soon. *I’ve gotten terribly cynical in most everything I say recently. I need to stop. *Did not! *So, you fall off of something in zero gravity and are on the floor. Is that still not down from where you were? *Where the heck did they go? * Indeed. I think that requires another *gasp********** (Because this is a team effort. (It’s terminal with me, I’m afraid. (You’re WRONG! My father even said you were full of it. (That’s what I was asking you. (Yes, but it’s entertaining and mind bending. (Only a tiny square right outside my window. How odd. I have a gun (or two) that I would willingly use on Kyra if she showed up at my house. Mooooo… (True. (Like what? (The cat loves me for my slicker brush.))))))))

Dang it! I went to the grocery today and forgot. *smack* Did she? Fascinating. Lookee what I found! ‘You've never experienced an entire club of people being encouraged to shout "Shut the F*** Up!" twenty or thirty times until you've been to a Cake concert.’ Jack Phelps.

Telepathic questioning? *titters* Uppercase only in the first letter? What happens if it is a two-word genre such as ‘Heliocentric Rock’? What do you do then?

I suppose so. I've never tried doing that. Hmm.. you've got me inspired.

*Sowwy, I should be more questioning, but I'm male, and I was tired. *So I see. *Perhaps it's time to stop now, yes. I'm more or less done with school now, so I've actually got time to think about things again. What loveliness. *Did too! *On the floor??? I don't think I read your full hypothesis to begin with. *I have no idea, it happened in the immense backwaters of backlog known as the previous page. *It requires several, but I'm not in the mood for sudden intakes of air right now. *At least we're above the normal level again. ******** (Yes, in the same way as my science group work. The group got a five, but I got a six. (As it probably is with me. (Full of what? Manure? I refuse to accept any such thing till we're done discussing it thorughly (never mind the fact that I didn't bother with reading your reasoning to begin with) (You accuse me of being unreasonable, and then you ask me what I've been unreasonable about... (And mind bending is healthy, in small portions. (How extremely odd. Couldn't you lasso her in stead? (Simple. (Like what I just did. (Does she? Ours loves to climb in through awkward windows. ))))))))

Must... have... cream... cheese. Yes, she was walking around downtown london, and she saw a poster where it said CAKE, live, today... Or summat. And she ran to the ticket office and bought a ticket. I've got to see them some time.

Something like that. Heading style, uppercase in the first letter of every word, unless it's a small one like 'of'.

I do try. Just don't try eating them with your hands.

*Let's see, Øyvind's most common excuses: 'I'm male', 'I'm Norwegian', 'I'm tired.' *It was an incredible sight to behold, that's certain. *Isn't it though? See what we've accomplished? *Did NOT! *HA! Just for that, I should win. You're blocking out my reasoning so soon. *Frightening. I wish I'd remember. *No? *So we did overkill? ************ (That would make me a four. Congratulations, btw. (Not a terrible thing to die of, I suppose. (Manure? No, I think 'shit' would be the most appropriate term. (that is mildly infuriating) (Well, I'd assume you'd remember about what. That does leave you in a tantalizing position of foisting the blame off on me, however... *scratcheshead* (Yoga for the brain? (I don't want her around in any form. The sound of her voice is enough to etch glass. She oozes vitriole from her pores. (Entirely. (So talented. (He. Ours likes to go through dog doors. What's your cat's name?)))))))))

We have two boxes, now, but one is *gasp* fat free. Eeeew, I can't eat the stuff; it's like paste! That's fantastic. I love concerts. Someone managed to convince me to go to one on the 17th.

You are incredibly anal.

Alright, I'll take your warning on that one.

*Explanations more like. And the last one was a two in one, even. *I should guess so. I had a very bizarre one this morning; A badger had jumped up onto our bird table (about one metre), and promptly gotten stuck there. It was lying with all its feet sticking out, with its stomach to the table, and it had the roof of the table holding it there. I have never seen a creature give me a more ridiculous look. Eventually, it managed to roll off the table. *What _have_ we accomplished? Well, to be more precise, what has our cynicism accomplished? *Did TOO, Did TOO, Did TOO. *Not really, I think I just skipped a line or summat. Damn, I can't say "I was tired", because you've just pointed it out to me. *I do not think I'd really like to remember. *Definitely not. I'm very, very, tired. Albeit in a nice, warm and comfortable way. *More or less, but that's what we usually do, isn't it? ******** (I would guess that you get the 6 on keeping these ones alive, actually. Thank you. (Nope, it might even take a while. (I'm tempted to yikes you, but I can't. (You can't win before you've actually worked for it.)(I don't think I will. I'm feeling... happy. (Yes, when done on the outbreath. (Now, that is an interesting expression. I have not met her, so I couldn't say, but I could probably get rid of her in a very diplomatic way. (Indeed. (Multi-talented. (Ah, yes, mr.winkers. Our cat's named Efaristo.))))))))

Urgh. Sounds horrible. Oooh, who's playing. I've just been invited to a concert with "Henki Wingis & the Funky Hornblowers". Muahahahahaha

I hope that means something else than what my dictionary here says.

Thank you. I am the one with the experience, so you should.

*Oh, no, you get absolutely no extra credit. If so, I get double. *A badger? I can't get that comic out of my head... Why was the critter on your table, anyhow? *Absolutely nothing. That is the point. Cynicism doesn't do anything except raise barriers and lead to later bitterness. *Did NOT, did NOT, did NOT!! *Sozzy, mate, you're using up your excuses. *Why not? That would require mental effort, no? *You need to go to bed. *Probably. I don't exactly remember. *********** (Okay, so you're the four. Quite welcome. (Bah. (You do it, you die. (I HAVE worked for it. Dammit, give me a biscuit, will you?) (You should be. Extremely. I'm in the most serene mode. (Brat. (Interesting expression? Which one? You would manage. (Of course. (You're a brat. An absolute brat. (Efaristo? How...it sounds almost latin.))))))))))

It's Godsmack and Metallica. I dislike Metallica, but I got offered a free ticket and it should be amusing. Ooooh! You should go!!!

Muahahahhahahahahahaha, anally retentive.

I suppose so. Mmmm. I now wish to bake brownies. I'll have to make my mother get some chocolate at the store.

*Never mind, then. *It was incredible. Well, it was a bird table, so we had put some bread out for the birds. It ate all of it. *Precisely. It's a protection, though. *Did TOO *Maybe so, I'll have to invent some new ones. *I might be responsible. *I did. *I think it's what we usually do. It's half the fun, too. ******** (Summat like that, yes. (Well, what was I supposed to say? (I couldn't even if I wanted to. (Not enough, no. I've given you several.)(Yes. I am privileged. (That's yoga for you. (" She oozes vitriole from her pores". We may see. (Very natural, yes. (Not really. You invited it, and I still don't really see the joke. (It's a Norwegian phonetic version of the greek word for "Thank you". I have no idea how they really write it, and if I even pronounce it correctly, but it's a nice name for a cat.))))))))

It can be very amusing indeed. I know, I've just got to find the time.

Nasty... nasty.

You shall. Mmmm, brownies.

*I shall mind. *This was a dream, right? *Yes, but it's sometimes unneccessary. *Did NOT. *Be creative, will you? *You are. *Good. Then you won't be melting today. *I suppose so. ********** (Woohoo. (*grumblegrumble* Today is your insult day. (You could. But I would yikes you right back. (Oh, no! No you haven't! Not unless I've WON them!) (Ach. *pummels* (*sneeze* (Vitriole is sulfuric acid. I really don't like her. She might try and... (I suppose, with you, yes. (You don't see the joke? How not? (How interesting. *titters* It is a nice name.)))))))))

As long as I don't get moshed. I hate that. They smush me. School'll be out soon, will it not?

You must be thinking of the first definition... "Indicating personality traits, such as meticulousness, avarice, and obstinacy, originating in habits, attitudes, or values associated with infantile pleasure in retention of feces." Muahahahahaha, it's used generally as a phrase for obsessive orginization and tidiness.

I do, more like. Mmmm. She's agreed...

*Just to keep it alive? *Nope. Tara woke me up because she'd heard the noise. I tried to photograph it but the camera was in my parent's bedroom. I looked at the grass the next morning, however, and it was really trampled. All of the bread was gone too. *It is, if you've got another way of facing it. *Did TOO *I shall, I shall. The problem is to find the reasonable and believeable ones... *There's no way of telling till one of us decides to browse through the backlog. *I suppose that's a good thing, yes. *Now, to keep this one alive... ******** (Such simple pleasures... (I didn't insult you. You insulte yourself. Is this another case of 'yes, but that's because I wanted you to disagree!'? (And I haven't said anything in violation of the house rules. Nope, not today. I'm too happy, and I care too much about you. (Yes, I've given in more easily than I should.)(What _are_ you so angry with today? (Hmmm... is that your association with yoga? (I know that, but I liked the expression. Try and do what? (You too, actually. (I get the idea you associate some things with the concept 'multi-talented', that I do not. (Hehe, it was a case of 'what the heck do we call her???'...))))))))

I should hope you can avoid it. Just pull out of the crowd right in front of the stage. Yes, but I'm so exhaused I dunno if I'll be able to do anything for a while...

Maybe so. Ahh. Well, it's odd to have that term associated with me, considering the state of my room...

YAY!

*No. It's a matter of principle. *Oh, man, that makes it hysterical. I thought you were dreaming. *collapsesintosqueaking* *Fashion Nugget running through my brain at that. *Did NOT. *Yes. I will rip them to shreds if they're not entertaining. *I'm not going to do it. *Yes. I'm rather hyped today. I got my schedule done, and I'm ready for next year. *'Snot so bad as that. You shouldn't look at it as a task. ********* (Ah, well, I like gardenias. (No, you didn't insult me. It was your day to be the butt of everything. Bah, don't mind it. (You have said four-letter words, before. What if I had just converted to Christian fundamentalism and they were suddenly offensive to me? You are too much, I know. (You're only saying that because you lost.) (I'm not, really. It's just been one of those lonely days, I think. (It's the mats they use. (Alright. Ah, nevermind. (What are we discussing, here? (Oh, probably yes. I tend to use it in a snide fashion, rather than seriously, as I've been plagued with it my entire life. (It's really cute.)))))))))

I've only been sucked into it once, and a security guard managed to pull me out. Ah, you'll recover quicker than you think.

Yes, but about some things you're exceptionally persnickety.

Indeed. Time to bake soon... Mmmmm.

*Yeah, right. You've neverminded me on other matters before. *Nope, I did not. It was absolutely incredible. It was stuck there, and it gave me the most stupid look I've ever seen. *Why so? *Did TOO! *Entertaining excuses... *sigh* *Neither am I. *Yay for that... How are you, then? *Maybe not. You've got more experience than me in that field. ******** (And I like computers. (Was it, now? (I believe I've used asterisks to cover them, haven't I? Well, if you converted to Christian fundamentalism, I think I would go bored of talking to you. Hmm... too much... is that good or bad? (Nope. I defy you to prove such an insulting statement!) (Yes. I suppose so. It's rather normal when a change comes along so suddenly, isn't it? (The mats make you sneeze? (Alright, It is unminded. (Do you really think I know? It might have something to do with bracketitis. (You've been plagued with people calling you multi-talented? (Hehe. Thanks. ))))))))

Urgh. I've always managed to avoid it on account of my height. It must be really awful, though. Probably, yes. I'm happier than I've used to be.

Yes, but they're not harmful things, are they?

I made my cheesecake; the world is good. How did your brownies turn out? I think I'm going to make fattoosh for dinner.

*Must you always point this out? I nevermind you quite a bit. *That is absolutely incredible. I wish you could have gotten that on camera. What did you do when you saw it? *I'm sure I had a reason at the time. *Did NOT! How juvenile. *What?! *Okay, so we're equally lazy. *Pretty good, I suppose. I have had six people call me this week telling me that they heard a song that was written for me, which has gotten pretty irritating. Today is a federal holiday because Reagan died. I don't understand that. How about you? *Coming up with useless nonsense? You know, I need to get some more salad dressing.********* (How is your computer? I remember you mentioning you were worried about it? (It sure seemed that way. (Oh, no! Not all of the time. I guess I shouldn't convert, then, no? Well, it really varies on how I'm perceiving you at the time. (That would be an exercise in futility. We'd ring 'round the rosey at least three more times before we forgot what we were discussing.) ( (Yes. The mats make me sneeze. (And you just contested the unminding earlier. (Bah, why do we even try anymore? I don't think I've listened to anything but junk all day...rather, week. (Yes. People loving needling me, though it probably isn't needling at all. (*snort*)))))))))

Have you ever been surfing? It is comparable to being sucked into the barrel of a really large wave. It is absolutely incredible, but horribly frightening. Why so?

No, but it's still funny.

Yay for that. I haven't gotten that chocolate I need yet. My mother's away for the weekend, so there's no prospect of getting it for a while.

*Yes. And if I cared, I would've said so. Hmph. Or I would've gone and bawled in a corner. *At first, I rubbed my eyes. Then, I tried to find the camera. I couldn't find it (my mother had it in her room, apparently), so I went back, just in time to see it fall down. *Well, that doesn't help me, does it? *Did TOO! Well, you're doing it too, so you're just as juvenile. *You heard me! *Yes. *Good, good. Which song lyrics were that? I wouldn't bother with making it a federal holiday, but that's just me. Fine... fine. *I suppose so. What for? ********* (It's fine. Completely healthy, apparently. (Hmmm... Too bad. (Damn. Nope, you shouldn't. I think it would wreck your ability to judge things properly. Ah, I see. (Of course, but it's supposed to be entertaining!) (Never mind. (Why on earth??? (I suppose I did... (I dunno, for the heck of it? Neither have I. Particularly not since tuesday. (Ah, yes. You're the one who takes insult when people consider you 'perfect'... (Aww. You're cute too!))))))))

Windsurfing yes, wavesurfing no. Doesn't sound too fun. Tuesday, actually.

Of course.

Ah, have the house to your lonesome, do you?

*Hehe, that would have made me laugh. How would you survive? *That is absolutely incredible. *Ah, am I interested in helping you? *raiseseyebrows* *Did NOT! Bah. *As I did. *That'll do. *Some horrid country song. You would laugh and agree. Me, too. Good...good. *You told me I was good at it, apparently. ******* (I'm glad to hear that the poor darling is healthy. (*shakeshead* (Do you now? (Yes, but entirely futile.) ( (Don't ask me! (*shakesheadyetagain* (I am now listening to something with value. I suppose you are, too. (Well, it's not TRUE!! (Why me? *mutterstoself*))))))))))))

Never been windsurfing, actually. It's absolutely incredible, though rather dangerous. Something about getting hit in the head with your board... Too cute.

Trying to kill it, are you?

Not really. Janos is home, but I'm not about to ask him to buy me chocolate.

*I could store emergency rations in your closet!!! *It was indeed. I'm pissed that I couldn't find the camera. *Well, you should be! *Did TOO *Well?!? *Certainly. *Probably. I'm glad we agree. *What's that got to do with dressing? ********* (How's Sherman and the cavaliers? (Can't remember what this is about, and I'm not about to check. (Yes. (So?)((Well, I figured you knew a bit better than I did. (Honesty is a good quality, isn't it? (I am indeed. (Not far from it, though. (Because you are. Hopelessly so.))))))))

Hehe. I suppose it is. I'd like to try it some time, though I'll probably be rubbish at it. Don't patronize me!

Nope. There was very little else to reply to.
