Throwing yourself at the ground and missing i how flying is done in H2G2. Kinda makes this a meta QoTD
Jeff,
I’ve enjoyed your other posts to the Planet, but I feel that this one is quite inappropriate due to the strong language. Ubuntu is about community, and I personally would appreciate if the contents of the Planet were kept G-rated.
Trevor, my words are not written for any of the (many!) Planets they happen to appear on, they’re written for my blog. Good Planet communities reflect their people, not the other way around, so it would be terrible for anyone to change their writing because it appears on a community Planet.
Corey, it’s a QoTD precisely because of the enjoyable allusion.
