Once got a test back with 42 written at the top, spent a while freaking out about how I possibly could have failed so badly. Turned out I'd forgotten to write my name on it, and my teacher had written it in for me... My name is Liz. Served me well during my H2G2 phase.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - 2 Hs, 2 Gs. The best acronyms are the ones that take several extra steps to explain.

Shouldn't it be H3G2? Hitchhiker has 3 Hs, not 2.

If your ":/" is an actual unhappiness, I'm sorry; I meant this to be bone dry humor and not criticism.

More likely sadness that Douglas Adams is dead. That causes me actual unhappiness.

I learned a few good lessons from him. Most apropo one nowadays is "The man who least wants to lead is the only one fit to do so."

(Hitch) + (Hiker) + (Guide) + (Galaxy) = H2G2

What kind of sociopath would include the "h" at the end of Hitch in that acronym? That's some real honest-to-god serial killer prediction behaviour right there, sir.

Why take a shortcut when you can go the long way around?
