- felidaeus, on 02/25/2009, -14/+56Offhand, I can think of 42 reasons to really digg this comic.
- hfactor, on 02/25/2009, -4/+46Yes we are
- GoldenChaos, on 02/25/2009, -3/+45Yes we are.
- derpaderp, on 02/25/2009, -94/+136The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; for those who don't get it. Sadly there will be some
- Wade, on 02/25/2009, -22/+64Are people actively keeping your score at +42 diggs?
- jeevesatvic, on 02/25/2009, -3/+45I wasn't, but i'm going to now :)
- DeviantDragon, on 02/25/2009, -4/+46If his comment doesn't perpetually have 42 diggs, it will all be for naught.
- sirjohnmichalot, on 02/25/2009, -8/+50And it's still slightly cheaper than the Encyclopedia Galactica!
- Maxamegalon2000, on 02/25/2009, -60/+10242
- dr4gn, on 02/25/2009, -1/+37Actually it's "WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE"
- A11YND, on 02/25/2009, -1/+3542 diggs.
- darknecross, on 02/25/2009, -1/+35Have you read it? It's an orgasm of fantasy, irony, satire, rhetoric, and, almost above all, imagery.
"The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't." - tmyprod, on 02/25/2009, -2/+33Or was the future made from Douglas Adams predictions?
- darknecross, on 02/25/2009, -4/+34"Sorry for the inconvenience" has to be my favorite 'epic' quote from the book, mainly because people don't use it all the time like "42" and "So long, and thanks for all the fish".
- diemunkiesdie, on 02/25/2009, -20/+48Dugg because XKCD will make the front page anyways.
Caution: All comments on this page will suck. - ShakataGaNai, on 02/25/2009, -3/+31http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Kindle_2_-_Front ...
Nuff said. - ashura001, on 02/25/2009, -1/+27Indeed.
- darknecross, on 02/25/2009, -1/+26Yeah, I just realized that. Need to go and re-read the fat book.
The story so far:
In the beginning the Universe was created.
This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move. - cryonix, on 02/25/2009, -1/+25Epic. comment dugg to 42? win guys, win.
- kitsua, on 02/25/2009, -1/+20Beat me to it.
I miss Douglas Adams. :'( - savocado, on 02/25/2009, -2/+19You know what, just go and ***** yourself for that.
- BeBigs, on 02/25/2009, -7/+22Who knew Douglas Adams could predict the future?
- Pr0v0st, on 02/25/2009, -0/+15I dugg you down, but just to get you back to 42.
- cannonball, on 02/25/2009, -1/+16More importantly, always carry a towel.
- Myztry, on 02/25/2009, -1/+15That highly improbable.
/dodges whale and a bowl of petunias - immatellyouwhat, on 02/25/2009, -6/+19Soon you will see "DON'T PANIC" stickers of the back of everyones kindle.
- babbitblob, on 02/25/2009, -2/+15Goddamn it, I can't digg the comment at 42.
- MalTheObscure, on 02/25/2009, -5/+18Other than access to the Kindle store, it's not free cellular web access unfortunately, or I'd buy one. From the Terms of Use:
"You may be charged a fee for wireless connectivity for your use of other wireless services on your Device, such as Web browsing and downloading of personal files, should you elect to use those services." - benmandude, on 02/25/2009, -3/+16A little off topic here but, apparently another Hitchhikers Guide is in the works as we speak. Titled And Another Thing..., it is being written by Eoin Colfer with permission from Adams' widow.
I hope he can live up to Douglas' standards of writing and give us another great book in the series. - dlan4327, on 02/25/2009, -1/+13Didn't you hear? It's an increasingly misnamed trilogy. Also it already has five parts.
- WhiteRaven, on 02/25/2009, -1/+12Okay, now I want to compare the price to a set of Britannicas just for the hell of it.
- atomicskip, on 02/25/2009, -0/+10I buried it hoping the comment will hit 42 and stay there.
- rpgmakr, on 02/25/2009, -0/+10This XKCD just gave me the most compelling reason to buy a kindle..
- nnagflar, on 02/25/2009, -2/+11101010
- thewhits, on 02/25/2009, -3/+12I always read my Kindle with a Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster.
- babbitblob, on 02/25/2009, -2/+11Holy *****. I have to go get a Kindle.
- diemunkiesdie, on 02/25/2009, -2/+11Download it to what? You would still need something to read it on. You could use a netbook, but that has nowhere near the battery life of the Kindle.
- WhiteRaven, on 02/25/2009, -1/+10I don't think the goal is to inspire suicides.
- CanceledCzech, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8I also buried you, because you were at 43.
- b33x, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8almost digg this comment.
then i realize its 42.. - StormTroopr, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8MrBabyMan is a hoopy frood who really knows where his towel is.
- inactive, on 02/25/2009, -2/+10http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=the+answe ...
- lolgamoff, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8When I dugg your comment, it put you to positive 42.
I guess I am Jesus. - Pxtl, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8Dugg down to push it back to 42 diggs.
- SirRealist, on 02/25/2009, -0/+8I did nothing to keep you at 42
- BugMeNot2, on 02/25/2009, -3/+10***** 'n balls.
- bagboyrebel, on 02/25/2009, -0/+7@Insolent
For a comedy book you sure are taking it very seriously. Sorry that you didn't like it, but opinions aren't universal so get over yourself.
@mofobitchslap
I'm hoping your response was a joke, but in case it wasn't: do you realize that Douglass Adams (author of the book) was an atheist? And atheists piss you off with their attitudes? What about your attitude right now? You sound kind of like a dick actually. - fapfaptrain, on 02/25/2009, -0/+7at 42 it shall stay.
