They both licked their dry lips.
"Though I don't think," added Deep Thought, "that you're going to like it."
"Doesn't matter!" said Phouchg. "We must know it! Now!"
"Now?" inquired Deep Thought.
"Yes! Now..."
"Alright," said the computer and settled into silence again. The two men fidgeted. The tension was unbearable.
"You're really not going to like it," observed Deep Thought.
"Tell us!"
"Alright," said Deep Thought. "The Answer to the Great Question..."
"Yes...!"
"Of Life, the Universe and Everything..." said Deep Thought.
"Yes...!"
"Is..." said Deep Thought, and paused.
"Yes...!"
"Is..."
"Yes...!!!...?"
"Fortitude," said Deep Thought, with infinite majesty and calm.

According to Douglas Adams, "Belgium" is a very dirty word in much of the Galaxy. It's not in most versions of the books, but it is in the radio play (because you can't say "fuck" on air, so they just said "Belgium" instead).

“Oh, Belgium man, Belgium!”
From The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy #H2G2
“Belgium is the rudest word in the Universe, yet by a strange coincidence, also the name of a country on Earth. In the Secondary Phase of the radio series, it is stated as "completely banned in all parts of the Galaxy, except in one part, where they don't know what it means, and in serious screenplays." -

Sepp Blatter sounds like the name of a character Douglas Adams would’ve created for Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy. Probably for a Vogon or the uncle of the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal, a thoroughly nasty and corrupt creature too unbelievable to exist. So does Gianni Infantino. Feeding them into the Total Perspective Vortex would be too good for them, but do it anyway.
