In the Hunger Games when a contestent in the game (they were called Tributes) died they set of a canon blast to let everyone know.

No problem, this IS physics.

It's the button right under the last post in a thread. It looks like:

Sure you can. Help yourself.
There are plenty so I don't see why you can't have one of your own.

Both, let's go with both. Why not.

Good idea! Sriracha can also counteract sadness.

I hate that I keep having to convince my Canon Rebel that I do, in fact, take pictures at night because I want night pictures.

That was a good place to stop. The last book, "Mostly Harmless", was essentially a huge FUCK YOU because Douglas Adams was sick of writing books but couldn't escape his own creation. He intended "So Long and Thanks For All the Fish" to be the last one (it's right there in the title) and provided happy endings for everyone to ride off into the sunset with. When he had to write another one he was pissed and disgruntled. So he *SPOILER ALERT* kills everyone, destroys the Hitchhikers Guide and blows up the Earth throughout all space/time/multiverses, thereby insuring there would be no further books for him to write.
Naturally, after his death, his widowed wife helped someone write another one, called "And Another Thing..." I haven't read it but apparently it claims that the events of "Mostly Harmless" were in an artificial reality. Douglas Adams would be spitting fire from the grave.
