  6. okay, so I've now watched Dirk Gently (2016) and Dirk Gently (2010), the former being two seasons of big budget indulgent modern fantasy and the latter being 4 episodes of old-fashioned BBC. Both kind of fun, but understandable why neither continued. #tv #dirkgently #douglasadams

  16. I know it'd be extremely niche, but I want a #Mario64 #AMV with #GurrenLagann's song showcasing how to “Do the impossible, see the invisible, …, touch the untouchable, break the unbreakable,”. Maybe add a bit of #DirkGently's “eff the ineffable” in there somewhere. youtube.com/shorts/-Ncj7B7WA4M #pannenkoek2012

  21. A quotation from Douglas Adams

    Solutions nearly always come from the direction you least expect, which means there’s no point trying to look in that direction because it won’t be coming from there.

    Douglas Adams (1952-2001) English author, humourist, screenwriter
    The Salmon of Doubt, Part 3 “And Everything,” “The Salmon of Doubt,” ch. 5 (2002) [ed. Peter Guzzardi]

  26. A quotation from Douglas Adams

    He had a tremendous propensity for getting lost when driving. This was largely because of his “Zen” method of navigation, which was simply to find any car that looked as if it knew where it was going and follow it. The results were more often surprising than successful, but he felt it was worth it for the sake of the few occasions when it was both.

    Douglas Adams (1952-2001) English author, humourist, screenwriter
    Dirk Gently, No. 2, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, ch. 4 (1988)

  34. A quotation from Douglas Adams

    It was his subconscious which told him this — that infuriating part of a person’s brain which never responds to interrogation, merely gives little meaningful nudges and then sits humming quietly to itself, saying nothing.

    Dirk Gently, No. 2, The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul, ch. 17 (1988)

  39. A quotation from Douglas Adams

       “Ah, I expect you’ll be wanting to pay for that paper, then, won’t you, Mr. Dirk, sir?” said the newsagent, trotting gently after him.
       “Ah, Bates,” said Dirk loftily, “you and your expectations. Always expecting this and expecting that. May I recommend serenity to you? A life that is burdened with expectations is a heavy life. Its fruit is sorrow and disappointment. Learn to be one with the joy of the moment.”
