There is a line in the (awful) movie of the (great) book The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy - "Follow me, I'm British, I know how to queue"  |

books. plural. they're great.
EDIT: that explains why you didn't understand why I left you a message saying "so long, and thanks for all the fish" when you announced you were taking a break from the site.

I remember you saying that and there is a song in the film singing that, but I still didn't understand

It's the title of one of the books in the series. It's also what the dolphins told the humans right before leaving earth: "So long, and thanks for all the fish".

Read the books - they're a lot better than the film - and exceptionally weird

I've seen the Film and I really liked it. If the books are even better, then...nah, I wouldn't read it anyway

Yes, I would at least try the original (The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy), even if you hate reading, you'll be hooked  |
