The Hitchhikers Guide to Almost Everything is a game in which you have to come up with a Hitchhiker's Guide type definition for things. For example:
PANTS or TROUSERS: An article of clothing to be worn over the lower half of the body. The number of "legs" depends on the species. All humanoids (without implants), however, have two legs, and thus, so do their pants.
There. Now have at it! Remember, this is supposed to be funny. So at least try!

television: a device that appears to be addictive, as the residents of planet Earth seem to be hypnotized by it, and under its powers, sit in a trance worshipping it. Once they are there, it is hard to break the link between man, and machine. Seeming to be happy, the humans belonging to the cult known as the "couch potatoes", diminish from living life, to watching it played out in front of them. The people watching this blubber giving, intellegence taking machine often have a blank look in their eyes, and appear to be asleep, only with their cornias fully visible. It is still to be debated as to why the television engages in this grotesque form of enslavement, it is also to be debated as to why HUMANS engage in such oppression and hypnotism.

Just as a side note....why did you decide to call this "Pan-Galactic Gargle Blasters"? THAT'S A HIGHLY DANGEROUS DRINK! I believe taht the description of that was 'Like having your head bashed in by a citrus-wrapped anvil'

Professional Wrestling: A form of fighting mainly used for entertainment on the part of the audience. The two combatants step into to a ring, though why they call it a ring we have no idea because, in fact it is not in the form of a circle or someother ringish sort of shape, but a square, with ropes as their walls. They then procede, (in tight outfits resembling bathing suits), to smash each other into tiny bits and pieces. It is also dangerous to be in the stands at one of these events, for sometimes the crowd can get quite violent. In short, it would probably be much safer and enjoyable to go to a cinema production.

I believe taht the description of that was 'Like having your head bashed in by a citrus-wrapped anvil' I don't know. Shouldst I change it? Well, even if I shouldst not, I shall.... it shall now be called "The Hitchhikers Guide to Almost Everything." And you got the description wrong. It's "like having your brain smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped around a large gold brick." |

Either way, you get the gist of it. But thank you for changing the name. It puts me at ease.

Towel: A must for every hitchiker in the galaxy. A piece of cloth that varies in length, no one knows exactly what it is used for, but there is a widely known saying that is simply. "Never go anywhere without your towel."
Of course, this saying was started by a Magrathean who has long since gone into hiding, and could have been misinterpreted.
