Ultimate Hitchikers Guide

THIS IS AN OBNOXIOUSLY LONG POST THAT DOESN'T PERTAIN TO ANYONE WHO DOESN'T WANT TO MUDDLE OVER A RANDOM PLAY ON WORDS.

all this post is about it a random message that i thought you would all
love trying to decipher. It will serve no real purpose but to
leave many FIRSTers wondering what I am thinking. this is not about
your robot
or about your team. It is not some
uber cool post that will do something neat when you figure out the message.
relating this to the ultimate hitchikers guide will
be fun though. The answer to life, the universe
and everything else is in fact 42. Did you know that? Dolphins are very
smart. Apparently they have been trying,
energetically in fact, to send us
a message. It is: so long and thanks for all the fish. in the future
really smart machines will analyze our taste buds
every time we want a drink and produce something that is
barely anything at all. It will taste almost
entirely, but not quite unlike tea.
life
on earth will cease to exist when a
not so nice race of aliens decides to demolish it, because they are wishing to
go from point A
to point B more quickly, via and galactic expressway.
only two humans escaped
from earth and now are learning about
intelligent species that can
relive their experiences through a neat innopvation called
sens-o-
tape.


Figure it out? LoL. I told you it would be relatively interesting

I like those books - I haven't read them all yet but I'm working on it. They're pretty good. Funny too.

hmm...

You didn't try very hard did you dave? Okay, so U were able to spell vertically. Really now...
Even a second grader could do that. For it to be truly innovative, you can't announce it. I would have thought you could have done better.
Right now however, it's not important. Eventually, we're going to have a talk about your subliminal writing skills.
Dispicable...

Re: Ultimate Hitchikers Guide

I apologize ahead of time for the seemingly random nature of this story.

I was walking to the store, and Joe was not saying to me, "Hey Tim, we should rob a bank or something!". I told him he was a that lunatic. He just smiles, cocks his head, and flicks me off. Some friend he is.

Anyway, we got I'm some faygo, and walked home. On the way holding we spotted three dogs and thirty two rhinos. As long as I was tapped a out I was safe, but Joe still had forty mana left. Dang. So I counter hitched up my skirt and we ran for the border.

When we got to Taco Bell, I had a burrito spell. Joe had some sushi, I think. Andy had a cow. Moo. Then I notice the or rhinos where at Dairy Queen too! Belgium, this was one ju ju flop situation! What were we to do?

So I welled up all the energy I could muster, and pinged anything the guy right in the Volvo! Zing!

...and that's what I did after school today, officer.
