My side of the mountain! I remember that!

[-] toynbee@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

I remember two specific parts (sadly without many details):

At one point, the protagonist kills an animal and finds himself staring at a particular organ, apparently craving the nutrients provided by that organ.

At another point, he boils water in a leaf, observing that a leaf will never burn below the top of the water due to the water keeping the leaf moist.

I probably should know whether either of those claims are realistic, but I've never been in a survival situation and I still don't know to this day.

Never tried a leaf but you can boil an egg in a campfire using a paper cup, the fire will only burn down to the waters edge

The information in your post is useful and appreciated.

But Ford was Zaphod's cousin, not nuclear family member, so your username is unacceptable.

Ford Prefect and Zaphod Beeblebrox were both taken on Reddit when I created an account ten years ago. I probably could have got one or the other when I moved to Lemmy but just carried the same one over

Don’t worry it’s all registered at the Galactic Nomenclaturoid Office

Despite my sassy teasing, I liked you already based on our initial interaction.

I like you better now.

I Remember something about him hollowing out that tree that he turns into his house with fire embers or something. It sounded really cool, but thinking back, I'm not sure if any of it's possible

Oh my! All those don't ring any bell at all. I remember him being a self absorbed school kid who tried to have sex with a sex worker lady? Was I hallucinating?

I wanna read it again now lol

I just remembered, also don't his parents move in with him at some point? That seems weird.
