    Hitch-Hikers Guide Galaxy?

    F**k off, that's like Romanes Eunt Domus - or some such bollocks.

Our galaxy is a mere whipper snapper, despite having existed almost since the big bang in one form or another. The whole universe is a baby.
      So remember when you're feeling very small and insecure,
      how amazingly unlikely is your birth,
      and pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space,
      'cause there's bugger-all down here on earth!
      And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

          Talk about small. Our life spans are so short and the lifetime of the universe so large, we will not get to see how it turns out. Bloody annoyed is closer to the truth.
