56. Miserable Git Am I

We hopped on a bus that took us to Gatwick. We’re flying to Belgium today. I don’t know much about Belgium. Anything, really. Burbank says all he knows is that according to Douglas Adams, it’s the worst swearword in the universe. It’s kind of a silly fact, but it’s one more thing than I know. If you think about it, it does say a lot about the place. I’m not really sure where this Adams guy gets his facts from. I asked Burbank if he’s some sort of linguist or something and he nearly hurled a rock at me. Generally not a violent man, my mate Burbank. Quite peace-loving, in fact: loves babies, adopts endangered animals, gives to charity. I must have really pushed his buttons with my idiocy this time. He isn’t speaking to me at the moment, so I’m afraid I still don’t know who Adams is.

  1. Dear Burbank,

    Well excuse me if I don’t know the name of every single author Britain’s ever crapped out. I have other things to do with my time. I don’t think the argument warrants the silent treatment, and I sure as hell don’t think I deserved you sneaking into my bag to douse my toothbrush in table salt. Grow up.

    Is it just me or is having someone who’s mad at you in charge of your online presence a really dangerous thing?
