A/N: Hello, sorry these took longer than previously, I was inflicted with the second problem. Cheers for the lovely reviews. I think someone asked for slippers a while ago, so here you go.
Entry 4597235: Slippers
The Galactic Book of Bedtime Clothing defines slippers as delicate cloth artefacts which allow the foot to be inserted and subsequently warmed during cold winter nights when many a foot has been frozen.
The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy defines slippersas soft shoes that keep your feet warm. It does go on however to tell the impoverished hitchhiker what he needs to know about them:
Slippers are the ideal present for a hitchhiker who has hiked his way round have the galaxy to arrive to wherever he calls home with cold feet. Not only do they provide the utmost comfort and warm, they also go very well with towels and dressing gowns. Hitchhikers looking for the fashionable 'Arthur Dent' dress style should definitely invest in a pair of slippers and a dressing gown, a garment which this famous frood has introduced to the Galaxy.
As beings age they tend to become more attached to their slippers; elderly carbon-based life-forms will often stay in their slippers until the day they pop their clogs, or rather more relevantly, their slippers. Many scientists have tried to analyse this phenomena, though none can think of a reason why it might happen. The best theory so far is that of ex-Galactic President, ex-confidence trickster and ex- pretty much every thing in the galaxy, Zaphod Beeblebrox, who apparently posed this question to his long-dead great-grandfather Zaphod Beeblebrox IV during a séance. According to Beeblebrox elderly life-forms need the comfort and warmth more than younger life-forms because they have less fat insulation, and also because they find it harder to run around there is no point in them wearing practical shoes.
Entry 3525000000000099: Exams
In the more developed areas of the Galaxy, says the Hitchhiker's Guide, the necessity for exams is practically abolished because of the easy availability of products such as Thinking Caps, Clever Clogs, Smart Arses and Big Heads. Also, as very few people actually have jobs that require anything but on-the-job training, there is little point in their existence.
Unfortunately some primeval planets still use an examination system, as their societies still include jobs that need qualifications. A team was sent out from the Erotica planet chain to a small planet called Earth a few years ago, to see if they could encourage its potential as one of the immensely popular 'Brothel Planets' that are scattered about the galaxy. Unfortunately the only person they came into contact with was an elderly woman who didn't think very much of their iridescent coat, and ended their lives with a swipe of her fly-swat.
Exams generally take place in large halls in the hottest season on the planet, so inside the participants sweat with anxiety and pressure, whilst outside a grounds-man will be loudly hosing flowerbeds; causing much discomfort for those participants with poor bladder control.
The pointlessness of these exams does not need to be stressed, but those currently partaking in such activities should remember the fundamental phrase 'Don't Panic'.
The passage ends with a footnote to the effect that Megadodo Publications will take no responsibility for poor exam marks gained by following the Guide's philosophy.
A/N: Not my best, they go a bit off the subject, but hey. And for those of you who cannot deal with occasional political incorrectness, should go stick your head in a pig.
