Douglas Adams is the best when it comes to describe characters
they need to teach classes on Douglas Adams analogies okay
“He leant tensely against the corridor wall and frowned like a man trying to unbend a corkscrew by telekinesis.”
“Stones, then rocks, then boulders which pranced past him like clumsy puppies, only much, much bigger, much, much harder and heavier, and almost infinitely more likely to kill you if they fell on you.”
“He gazed keenly into the distance and looked as if he would quite like the wind to blow his hair back dramatically at that point, but the wind was busy fooling around with some leaves a little way off.”
“It looked only partly like a spaceship with guidance fins, rocket engines and escape hatches and so on, and a great deal like a small upended Italian bistro.”
“If it was an emotion, it was a totally emotionless one. It was hatred, implacable hatred. It was cold, not like ice is cold, but like a wall is cold. It was impersonal, not as a randomly flung fist in a crowd is impersonal, but like a computer-issued parking summons is impersonal. And it was deadly - again, not like a bullet or a knife is deadly, but like a brick wall across a motorway is deadly.”
And, of course: “The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don’t.”
the one that will always stay with me is “Arthur Dent was grappling with his consciousness the way one grapples with a lost bar of soap in the bath,” i feel like that was the first time i really understood what you could do with words.
I will reblog this every time I see it because these are some of my favorite sentences in the English language.

In the kindest way possible, fuck you
one of my favourite linguistic phenomena/in-jokes is spanish potato chips being “ham-flavored, probably”
y’see because spain and portugal are so close, labels in stuff like food, shampoo, etc often come in portuguese as well as spanish
this brand of chips, Lay’s, displays the flavor in spanish and portuguese, resulting in ham-flavored chips looking like this:
with “jamón” being spanish and “presunto” being portuguese
however, “presunto” is also a spanish adjective, meaning “presumed” (or suspected)
so you have this in-joke going where spanish chips taste like ham, presumably
You’ve heard of “I can’t believe it’s not butter!” now get ready for “It’s questionable whether or not this is ham”

This felt like a punch to the throat
On one hand, this would exasperate any Frenchmen within earshot, so good for her.
i love that the doctor introduces themselves as a "time lord," especially given that they didn't pass (or barely passed?) their exams. it's like if an alien walked up to a human, asked what their species was, and the human was like "i'm a law school graduate" and they were LYING
