Hitchhikers Musical?

Has anyone else ever thought hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy would make a good musical?

I feel like it's a good story full of zany characters that could translate well to a musical format. The 2005 film has the song so long and thanks for all the fish song which would fit in perfect as a musical song. (And is a good song in my eyes)

There could be a song about how important a towel is, or a sad song from Marvin's perspective on life, a silly song about how Zaphods just some guy. 😂 The costumes and sets could be so big, colorful and creative too.

Sorry to anyone that's not a musical fan please don't hate me I just thought it was a fun idea. 🫣 To people who do like musicals would you watch a hitchhiker musical? 😂

Goa'uld possesion

Given that dolphins are more intelligent than humans, and mice are smaller than the goa'uld base form, wouldn't goa'ulds be more keen to take possession of dolphins over humans?

Which custom plate tag, part deux

TOWEL is also available and may be the best obscure option. Hoopy and Frood are not, nor are any of the better versions of ‘42’.

Just not sure which to do. The plate is an awesome Marine Wildlife conservation charity with a Dolphin to make Douglas Adams proud, protectmarinewildlife.org created by that hoopy artist Steve Diossy, quite the frood I must say.

Which custom vehicle tags?

Custom tags can have up to 5 characters where I’m from (so FORTY2 won’t work).

These are the best few I can come up with that are available. What do you think? Or do you have better ideas?

I always loved this mod in the nineties. I've often thought of making a video for it, so here it is. #hhgttg

Request: What does 100,000 people saying "wop" actually sound like

I've been re-listening to the radio series recently and came across the part where the sound of the krikkit ship materializing is defined as "100,000 people simultaneously saying 'wop' all at once" (paraphrased). Sadly, the sound effect used in the radio series sounds nothing like that. It's a cool sound effect, granted, but it sounds nothing like 100,000 people saying wop (at least not to me).

It seems, in this day and age of AI and simulation, we can finally answer the question of what exactly 100,000 people saying WOP actually sounds like, and I'm wondering if anybody has actually made this happen? It seems others have had the idea but I haven't found any results.

I'm guessing someone out there has a toolchain where they can simulate this pretty easily?

I figured it out!

If you could make a piece of paper, that was one atom thick with exponential length and width, how many times would you have to fold it until it was tall enough to reach the moon?
