    I'll take the stand that e-cigs are, in fact, douchy. Or at least bring out the douche in those already carrying the gene.

    I was messing with them for a little while before I left the ex, so by default, I can't say speak ill of the practice. I ordered polyethylene glycol from China and was mixing it with various flavors and levels of nicotine. It was equally unsatisfying with nicotine as it was without, so I eventually gave up on it. The biggest issue I was having is that I couldn't find flavors like charcoal and mesquite BBQ, and I never really felt it in my throat while puffing the same way I'd feel toxic smoke from the real thing. So, I just stuck to rolling my own cigarettes.

    I have been keeping the habit in Japan, though I smoke a lot less now because there's no smoking in the apartment.

    Since you brought them up, I'd never read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy books up until last year, and was looking forward to doing so.
    The first was okay, but shit. I mean it vaguely qualified as an unbad way to pass the time. The other four were shockingly bad. Without doubt the worst series of books I've ever read.

    I don't know if they're critically acclaimed, I would imagine so, but everyone I speak to thinks they're fantastic. Even if they haven't read them.
    My conclusion, based on my taste alone, is that HGttG is the emperor's new clothes of sci-fi.
    I plan on beating him to death with his kids. I'll use them as a bludgeon on his face. -

    Jethuth cwithe, thank fook we scored a try.
    It's obviously a bad thing if I stay in for an international, we're getting twatted and Halfpenny can't land a kick.

    Been getting a lot of esoteric messages from various gods recently, this time it's loud and clear:
    I should be getting mankered with the Babycham each and every time Wales play rugby.

    I've no idea, I've only ever listened to the original (radio) play. The idea of converting that to a novel just seems mental to me.

    I didn't know that was what happened.
    Well. The converting went poorly. The 'humour' often made me cringe :earl:

    I've often wondered why people think reading Shakeapeare's plays is in some way superior to say watching it as a fillum.

    It's a play FFS, go and see it performed, and if you can't go and see a good fillum version.

    It's what it was written as.

    Not that they have all been made it's fillums, but a lot have.
