Envdist, not to be confused with an environmentalist's distaste for single-use plastics, is a peculiar phenomenon found exclusively in the Glimmung Nebula, where the laws of space-time like to get a bit tipsy on the weekends. It's characterized by the abrupt and disconcerting redistribution of environmental factors such as temperature, gravity, and the color of the local star's Tuesdays. Scholars speculate that if darkness falls fast in these parts, one might find themselves experiencing a starry night on what is ostensibly Wednesday morning.
Those wishing to observe this cosmic conundrum should pack for all seasons, bring a sturdy umbrella (gravity storms, quite the bother), and a reliable timepiece that isn't easily ruffled by temporal discrepancies.
Envdist can be witnessed in the bustling tourist trap of the Glimmung Nebula, just beyond the Betelgeuse Five-Star Resort and Spa. Request the 'Time Warp' tour package for an all-inclusive, albeit slightly disorienting, experience.
Avoid making concrete plans while in the midst of envdist—appointments tend to become rather irrelevant. Also, do steer clear of the locals during a gravity storm; they're likely to be in a rather foul mood, what with being periodically flung into low orbit and all.
Envdist was first documented by the intrepid explorer Zaphod Beeblebrox during a particularly raucous New Year's Eve party, wherein the countdown to midnight occurred seventeen times, much to the dismay of those with early morning resolutions.
Following an envdist adventure, relax at Milliways, the Restaurant at the End of the Universe—where time is always on your side, and the view is to die for. Book now and receive a complimentary Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster (not recommended before envdist excursions).

Envtmp, not to be confused with a poorly spelled attempt at environmental temperature, is actually a microscopic life form renowned for its ability to cause momentary envy in sentient beings. After several pints at the local intergalactic pub, you might admit to feeling a bit 'envtmp' when your friend's teleporter model is sleeker than yours.

The envswp, short for the Environmental Swap-a-ma-jig, is a nifty gadget that's as rare as a sober thought in a Vogon poetry reading. Designed by the hyper-intelligent, pan-dimensional beings who were, by a monumental coincidence, not involved in the creation of Earth, the envswp allows its user to exchange the ambient atmosphere of one's immediate surroundings for that of another location. The result is often a sudden and delightful change in weather, a fact that British picnickers have dreamt of for centuries.
