Ghastly, continued Marvin, it all is. Absolutely ghastly. Just don't even talk about it. Look at this door, he said, stepping through it. The irony circuits cut in to his voice modulator as he mimicked the style of the sales brochure. 'All the doors in his spaceship have a cheerful and sunny disposition. It is their pleasure to open for you, and their satisfaction to close again with the knowledge of a job well done.' As the door closed behind them it became apparent that it did indeed have a satisfied sighlike quality to it. Hummmmmmmyummmmmmmah! it said. β¨ Douglas Adams (2012). The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: The Trilogy of Five, p.67, Pan Macmillan
