Does anyone else use a recurring joke or funny from his books?
My job often entails putting flat-pack furniture together. All well and good but the amounts of cardboard etc. that comes with it is huge.
It is on these occasions that I tell the HHGTTG joke about the project to measure all the matter in the known universe. How they kept coming up short until realized it was all the packaging the equipment came in.
