Why this must be read:

So, my time with you lovely people has come to an end, and for my final rec, this one only seemed appropriate. It’s a very sweet and poignant bit of meta about the man himself, Douglas Adams, which I won’t spoil with my usual brand of inane chatter. The fic, quite frankly, speaks for itself.

So long, Douglas, and thanks for all the fish.

He's definitely deserving of a bit of meta, the more absurd the better. I remember being so sad when he died, but finding comfort in the manner of it - a heart attack while exercising is just so silly!

Far too soon, though.
